Proraso pre/post creme....pleasant side effects of

**simonc** · 06-12-2009, 09:29 PM

After my 1st DE shave yesterday using proraso pre/post creme, I thought I should mention an interesting, and pleasant side effect....

I've had a case of dermatitis on my left little finger for ages, due to cleaning agents etc etc, & no matter what moisturising product I used, it had little or no effect.
After getting the proraso all over my fingers yesterday, im pleased to report that all the dry skin is gone, sure it looks a little funky still, though the skin is so smooth, its like a miracle cure!

I think based upon this finding, it will be a staple in my pre shave regiment - if it can do this to my mangey little finger imagine what its doing for my face

I agree, I have used a number of different preshave lotions and whatnot and have found that the Proraso is the best for me. It leaves my face feeling great, and what can I say I love the smell.

As a bit of an update - I've since been using it on my finger for the last 3 days - dermatitis is all gone.Wish I could have taken before & after photos....

indeed - Long live Proraso!

Proraso Pre/Post is the one product in their line I never go without. Wonderful stuff. It does smell a bit like Vicks Vapor-rub, but it isn't unpleasant... it grows on you.

Damn! I meant to order some but forgot!

I actually love the smell. Vicks just makes me think of childhood, when my mother would rub it on my chest as she tucked me into bed when I was sick.

Is there anything Proraso Pre/Post can't do?

I have noticed that castor oil works great on eczema flare ups.

Just stop the Proraso long enough for the dermatitis to come back ...

Do not use "P P/P" to season cast-iron cookware.

You're on! I'll only use my right hand in the application to my face.I'll even randomly dip my left hand into some Methylated spirits to speed up the dermatitis coming back.
The things I will do in the aid of science

I'll update as soon as I have some results!
