Proraso Pre Shave vs. Pre/Post Shave

[Jim B.]

Is there any difference between Proraso Pre-Shave Cream and Proraso Pre-Shave/Post-Shave cream?

Unless they just came out with a new product, I'm quite sure they only make the pre/post shave cream. I think some men just refer to the pre/post shave cream as the pre shave cream because that's all they use it for.:wink2:

There is no such product - there is only the pre/post. There is a sensitive version in a white label jar, but they're still the same thing.

Yep - that's it!

Newer production series are indeed labeled as "Pre" and no longer as "Pre/Post", although the instructions on the jar mention the usability as an aftershave (for some odd reason, the english readings DO NOT, while any other of the four languages do).

The explanation is simple: the cream now contains heavy preservatives (Methylisochlorothiazolinone and Methylisothiazolinone, read here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylchloroisothiazolinone
"Methylchloroisothiazolinone is an allergen for 1.7% of individuals."), and I believe that leaving those on your skin permanently may not be recommended in the eyes of Proraso's product managers...

Has anyone compared the ingredients of the Proraso Pre Shave Cream with the Pre/Post? That would be really helpful. The Pre/Post is in a solid green jar and the Pre shave cream comes in white and green.
