Speick or Proraso?

You have to choose one and only one. Which will it be?

speick, proraso gives me hives

Speick by a long shot. I like and regularly use Proraso, but Speick gives me better lubrication.

I should test them side by side with distilled water to see if somehow the Speick just works better with my hard water.

i chose speick because of my recent success' with it, however i don't think i would be this into shaving if it wasn't for proraso.

I can't stand Speick...I couldn't get a good shave with it, the scent bugged me, and whatever's in it caused redness and irritation. Boo. Besides...it's German, lol...

Proraso, the entire line, on the other hand...

Proraso, it has the menthol goodness and from what I understand, they took the tallow out of Speik. Still a tough choice as both are great.

If I had to choose one it would be Proraso. Speick has a better scent, but Proraso is slicker and has that little menthol kick I like.

I love the scent of Speick, but got a terrible shave with it. Proraso is just amazing. Wait until you try SMN, though.

Proraso...

I have a sample of that lined up for tonight, actually. It's like you read my mind!

A split for me, I would not part or be without either.

Yay Team Proraso...we're in the lead now. Forza Italia!

Speick shaves better and smells better. Proraso is good, but not up there with Speick.

Joining team Proraso ;-)

Speick. The scent, the shave, and did I mention the scent of the cream.

The Speick shaving stick had tallow but now doesn't; the shaving cream didn't, to my knowledge, ever contain tallow.

I'll have to vote for Speick, but it's pretty close for me.

Wow, I could have sworn my Speick cream was a tallowicious treat. Either way, I love the stuff. Although, today it's hot and humid and tonight's going to be a Proraso cream followed by Proraso splash. Both will always have a place in my den.

Proraso. Proraso. Proraso. (I only voted once.)

Team Speick takes the lead! I can't do Proraso....the scent, the shave, just doesn't do it for me.


Speick on the other hand...

Has to be proraso just ahead of speick in the summer, winter 50- 50.
