Thread: proraso pre shave v.s. proraso pre/post shave

so.... whats the difference between proraso's pre shave cream and proraso's pre/post shave cream.. all i have available locally is the pre shave cream.

Well, I'm glad you asked...

(I'm new but...)

I have the Proraso pre shaving cream, Proraso shaving cream, and Proraso Liquid Cream After Shave. I've had the 'Whole Proraso Experience (can't be faulted) but as it was a little bit cold (weather wise), I felt it didn't really 'match' the season. HOWEVER, 1st day of Spring is soon to be here, and then, and many times after; in the Summer, this Ménage à trois shall reign supreme...

I don't think that there is any difference. I have used the pre-post-shaving cream as a before shave preparation for years.

I think that it is being marketed with some rather confusing marketing and labeling today. After all, "pre-post" is the same as "pre & dopo barba" = "before & after shave."

Regardless of the confused marketing, I don't think you can go wrong making use of it as a pre-shave beard softener.

+1 I dont think there's a difference too. I use the Proraso pre/post before and after the shave since the start and I loooove it. It help for not getting ingrown hair and help soften the hair. hope this help...

cheers

I believe it is actually the same product. For the longest time proraso didn't have a product line dedicated to just post shave. Now that they do I think they are trying to move the pre/post to just a pre product.

Hello, ezpz: The Proraso pre-shave and post-shave balm are the same. They come in the green jar and are dense with Eucalyptus. There is a green tea version of it, which goes easier on Eucalyptus, but it can be used as pre-shave and post-shave. There is also the aftershave, one a green liquid and the other a creamy one.

Indeed, also known as 'Proraso White'. After using several jars of the 'Green' pre/post I decided to give the White a chance. While it works well and the scent is nice I think I will be going back to the Green when this jar is finished. Not enough of a menthol kick for me

so in summary i can use my "pre shave" cream as post shave, just like the "pre/post shave cream"

Yes, you may, ezpz.

I'll have to give them a try myself. They sound good!
