Closest Shave and Smoothest Skin Ever,

Short review:
Used with Proraso Pre-Shave Cream and a blade, nothing will give you a closer shave. Your face will be baby smooth all day. You will need a shaving brush too.
Long review:
I bought this because a reviewer said it was better than the Proraso shaving cream in a tube and that reviewer was right. Compared to Proraso cream in the tube, which is still better than anything in a can, this stuff gives me instant lather and is thinner on the face and easier for the blade to get through. I've only tried the soap with Proraso Pre Shave Cream Menthol & Eucalyptus and my Gillette Fusion razor. It is by far the best, smoothest and closest shave I've ever had in my entire life. Nothing comes close. Looking forward to trying this soap with a new Norelco wet/dry I just ordered for shaving in the shower.
Having tried this soap, I will never go back to shaving foam or gel in a can ever again. The difference using the same blade is that dramatic. I find myself...Read more

I've used a few shaving soaps over the years with mediocre results but this one really surprised me. It lathers very well and really protects my sensitive skin. I've used it several times and always with good results. It seems to work a tiny bit better than the Van Der Hagen Glycerin Soap, which is also a great soap and quite a bit cheaper. These two soaps however are light years ahead of the Williams Mug Shaving Soap which I find to be pretty poor. I even prefer this shaving soap to a few of the many creams I've tried. Definitely give this soap a try.

I was bit skeptical when looking for a shaving soap that my sensitive skin on my face could handle. When you use this one you actually feel it going to work on your skin. Also seems like the soap is easily absorbed by the hairs, making them easier to cut. Smells nice. Also seems that it will last a long time. The possibility to cover it, store it and travel with it makes it a plus as well. Definitely buy if you've tried other shaving soaps and have cut yourself a lot because of skin sensitivity.
