Average

Used the three Proraso soaps a lot over the past decade, mostly the Green and White varieties. I get a great shave on two-three day old stubble, but for daily shaving find there is irritation that makes the daily shave uncomfortable by the end of the week. The lather seems inconsistent despite my routine remaining the same. Have only been using this product as it is readily available in physical shops, and quite cheap.

It also seems like the scent of the product, and quality of the lather deteriorates as you work your way through the tub.

Have had much better results; richer lather, smoother shaves, little-no irritation with Cella, and even Col. Conk (with the right water chemistry). A shame that Mensbiz doesn't seem to stock either anymore.

Didn't work for me

Lather was soapy and thin, no matter what I tried. After applying I'd start shaving and after a few strokes on one side of the face, the other was no longer lubricated. Back to Taylor of Old Bond Street which costs more but goes on thick and creamy and far more enjoyable.

Top product at a competitive price......

A really great product at a very competitive price and does the job really well. For those with sensitive skin, this is a good product to consider using.

Not my first choice

good buffer, less burn and cuts, but i found it left my skin feeling slightly irritated. I was expecting little to no scent, but it does smell of some persons idea of masculinity.

Functional, but not the pamper product i was hoping for.

Great

A great shave soap that is well priced with a mild, fresh fragrance that latherswell.

Excellent product

Low irritant, lay here nicely, subtle scent, the green tea and oatmeal products are all great and work well together

Excellent value

A lesser priced shaving product which produces a good lather. I have a tough growth and it lathers well to do the job.

Great product, everyone with sensitive skin must give it a shot!

I've used numerous shave soaps, ToBS, GF Trumper plus others. Keep returning to the old faithful. Have paired the shaving soap with the Poraso pre-shave and sensitive aftershave balm. An outstanding shave time after time, lathers up beautifully, smells great and my 34HD glides like a charm. I use a fair chunk as I also shave my head. It's a must try for those with sensitive skin.

Best soap that you can buy

I have used the Bluebeards Revenge shaving cream - their post shave balm is one of my favoritess still, I have used Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap, I spent half a year using Speick Active Shaving Soap, I used Taylor of Old Bond Street sandalwood for over a year and I have tried D.R. Harris.

This soap is the one that I keep coming back to after I initially tried it last year for the first time. I ordered 2 containers of this soap on 23/06/2017 to take advantage of the free shipping offer and then ordered my next set of two on the 24/01/2018 to use a bit over 3 weeks later. These two soaps have lasted 3 months each without any problems for $12.95 each.

I shave every day and have tough facial hair, it usually requires two go overs with a Merkur Solingen classic in the morning. I use Feather blades and a badger hair brush for building up lather which is easily produced. This soap is the best of the lot that I have tried due to value for money, ease of lather and skin compatibility. It is great for sensitive skin and I have had minimal issues with razor burn as long as I dont keep using the same blade for too long, usually I replace the blade every 2 to 3 weeks as I dont have a strop yet. There is very little scent to this soap and it leaves you feeling refreshed, I highly recommend you give it a go and see how it works for you as I cannot go past a $12.95 soap that lasts for 3 months for every day use.

This soap is ideal

I love this shave soap. The smell is unique. It lathers beautifully. I have sensitive skin.. It will lather into a thicker foam and makes shaving so much easier..

Fantastic soap

After trying a few different soaps through Men's Biz, I'm confident I have now found 'the one'. The Proraso White lathers fantastically, has great glide, and the bowl lasts quite a while (this is my second order). Definitely plan to order this again.

Good product

My first time with the "white" after using "Green". Enjoyed the shave once I found a suitable blade (Gillette 7 O'clock). Lathers up well and remains moist and my skin no longer burns yet the shave is close. Washes out of the brush easily too and razor not clogging. I like this product.

Great product

Really good product. I have used the green before and have sensitive skin so have tested white.
Really good product with minimal irritation.Will definitely use again.

Ian
Excellent product

I had only used the green version previously but wanted to try the white. I do have sensitive skin and although I wasn't having any trouble with the green I thought I'd give this one a go. Worked very nicely, very little irritation and I would recommend to anyone.

Jason
great for sensitive skin

I've got really sensitive skin, and this does a great job of providing a comfortable shave with minimal irritation. I've found best results by following it up with the Proraso white after shave balm

Another excellent Proraso soap

Like the green and red versions of Proraso shaving soap, the white version produces an excellent lather and so far it's been a great shaving experience.

This one is ideal for sensitive skin and has a very nice scent. Like the other Proraso shaving soaps, this is great value for money and it'll last a long time even if used regularly.

LATHERS SUPER EASILY

As someone who is new to wet shaving and creating lather in particular (that doesn't involve a propellant)this worked like a charm. I've got both sensitive skin and a coarse beard and this provided a smooth, irritation-free shave every time.
It feels very refreshing on my face, especially if you leave it on for at least a minute or two before shaving. I coupled this with the Proraso white Pre-Shave cream as well which really helped around my troublesome neck.
My only knock on this and it's minor, is that it leaves a white film on everything, especially my razor, making cleanup a bit of a chore.

MUCH BETTER THAN I THOUGHT

This stuff is fantastic. Very good on the skin. I was thinking it'll be just like a soap in a dish.....couldn't be further from the truth. A beautiful, soft, smooth shave. No drag & I get bad shaving rash....I cold not fault it. Coupled with the PRORASO LIQUID AFTER SHAVE CREAM, for once, it was an enjoyable shave. Highly recommend it.

Great soft soap

As a person who always had irritation after shaving, this was definitely going to be the first soap I would buy and I couldn't be more happy! It's a softer soap and lathers quite easily which was perfect for me as a novice. Its scent is pleasant and not overpowering and it was quite gentle on my skin which was perfect!

After researching how to combat razor rash/irritation my eyes were opened to the wonderful world of wet shaving. I scoured the internet (at 11PM one Wednesday night) and couldn't find a better deal than at Men's Biz, so loaded up my cart along with this soap, a Merkur razor and a Vulfix brush; where the impatient wait commence.

Everybody knows the feeling after stealing an online bargain and having to wait forever until the mailman arrives, but it was at my door within 30 hours of ordering, and considering there were 8-10 hours before business commenced the following day, I was blown away at the speed of service! Add to that the query I had about my purchase which was answered sooner than I could have imagined and I would definitely recommend Men's Biz to any fellow Australian; especially if they were in a hurry.

great shaving product

i use this to help with my razor burn as well as the preshave version of this as well, and its works!

had it 3 months now and still have 2/3 left of the bar

nice lather

Lovely light lather that creams up nice and quick and provides a good buffer for the blade

A perfect fit

This product is just great if you have sensitive skin! I have extremely sensitive skin (i see a dermatologist) and shaving has always been a real problem!
The Proraso soap is just fantastic, no dryness, cracking or irritation (redness). It does take a few uses to get it lathering well but once it has been used a few times it lathers very easily with hot water.
The smell is rich and masculine and if you have very sensitive skin i'd recommend combining this product with the Speick aftershave balm - never had better!!

A great priced entry to quality shaving, somewhere to start if you feel daunted by choice!

I first tried Proraso Eucalyptus & Menthol in the tube, a year ago when I purchased various razors, blades and creams to start doing things more seriously after finding the Mens Biz site. The Proraso line is well priced and simple, easy to get some lather and protection whilst not feeling like you smell like your 80-year old Grandad. This version is excellent presented in a sealable plastic container, soft enough to scoop out a small amount or alternatively wet your badger brush, flick out most of the water then wipe around briefly to load then lather straight onto your face. The aloe and green tea smell is subtle and nice, and more importantly creates a smooth slick to glide that razor across. Afterwards it seems to assist with soothing the skin of your razored face giving some extra comfort. It is very easy to foam without it looking like you are a dieseased dog and being in a tub is certainly a better option compared to the tube where I found it often came out in hard lumps and proved hard to lather when in a lumpy mixture. Overall a "must-try" and at this price, you have everything to gain. If not a daily choice, still a great option for a change every now and then or even if you travel due to ease of use and great sealable tub.

Gentle, cleansing, and long lasting

My skin is prone to breakouts and dryness. This soap has produced neither! Excellent soap for sensitive skin, it cleanses well, and gives a great lather for a smooth shave. So far I have hardly made a dent in the tub. It seems like it will last forever! Highly recommended.

Don't Hesitate

If I could only use one shave soap or cream ever again, this would be it. Amazing shaves, lovely cooling effect, but no problems on my sensitive skin. One tub will last you so long you will kick yourself for forking out the cash for the canned shaving cream for all those years. My brother liked this and tried the green tub version, but neither of us were keen on it as it was a bit strong.

Buy the Eucalytpus instead!

I love Praraso, the menthol & ecelyptus soap is, easy, comfortable and above all economical. I use it often. Allways a dead-easy, close, comforatble, quick and enjoyable shave. So i was genuinely shocked at how poor this soap is. My skin is left irritated, dry, tight and the shave is second rate. There is no way I could use this product everyday. And the smell, ugh, horrible. The lather is poor, and no matter what I can't get a good cream from it.

I'm really, really shocked that this is such an awful soap, as it seemed, in theory, to be just what I wanted.

A shame. Back to the green tubs for me.
