Proraso Shaving Cream for Men Review | Men's Best Shave Cream

Is Proraso Men’s Shaving Cream Any Good?

I had seen Proraso Shaving Cream on drug store shelves for a while, but didn't feel like buying it for full price. But when I saw it last week for just $6.00 at my local Shoppers Drug Mart, I grabbed it and gave it a try.

Proraso has different versions – the one I picked up was Proraso Green Shaving Cream with Eucalyptus and Menthol. Its blue and white packaging looks classic, distinctive and catches the eye right away.

The moment I opened Proraso Shaving Cream’s cap, the smell of Eucalyptus hit me. Also, it has the classic barbershop smell that reminded me of the old days going to the barber.

I used a shaving brush to lather my face. The Proraso shaving cream felt creamy, but I didn’t get the heavy, rich lather I was expecting. Also, I felt like the lather didn’t stay put too long and I had to rush to finish shaving.

My overall experience was satisfying, but nothing so great that I have to keep using it in the future. Especially considering that Proraso Shaving Cream costs double or triple the cost of other shaving cream, unless you are buying it on sale.

Proraso Shaving Cream is priced at $10-$12 (if not on sale) and I think it can’t beat Nivea Shaving Cream, which only costs $3 - $4. I am willing to try other versions of Proraso Shaving Cream, but only when I can get them on sale.

I have made a Proraso Shaving Cream Review video, available on YouTube, which can be accessed here:
