    Default Just ordered!

    Having tried and feeling let down by Crabtree and Evelyns shaving soap (no glide and no moisturising effect), I have just ordered Salters sandalwood and Taylor's Avocado and St. James shaving creams from UK. My choice has been influenced by what I have read on this forum and am looking forward to increasing my choice in the morning besides the Proraso that I have been using. Proraso is absolutely perfect except for the scent which gets to be a little boring after a while. Why can't Proraso do a few more flavours retaining the same base, I wonder!

    Good job. Proraso does offer another cream- the red tube, but that seems to have many detractors.

    Well, I wasn't sold on the eucalyptus scent at first either, but once you build a lather with it, it becomes way less intense. I've actually grown to like it, and I love Proraso because of how good it works.

    Simple, effective, easy to get, and inexpensive - how perfect is that?

    Peace,

    I agree with you. As far as the function goes, very few soaps and creams come close to it at that price BUT the scent could do with some improvement and variety. You did see that I used the word "absolutely perfect" next to Proraso! So we agree Proraso rules!
