FAQs

How should I store the shaving soap?

Store the shaving soap in a dry place at room temperature. Ensure the lid is closed tightly to prevent the soap from drying out.

Can I use this soap without a shaving brush?

While you can apply the soap with your hands, using a shaving brush is recommended for creating a rich lather and achieving the best results.

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

The menthol in this soap may irritate sensitive skin. Consider testing a small area before full use or choosing a Proraso product specifically designed for sensitive skin.

How long does a jar of this shaving soap typically last?

The longevity depends on frequency of use and the amount used per shave. A 150ml jar can last several months with regular use.

What is the purpose of the eucalyptus oil and menthol?

Eucalyptus oil provides a refreshing and toning effect, while menthol creates a cooling sensation, and helps to protect and hydrate the skin during shaving.

Can I use this soap with an electric razor?

This shaving soap is designed for use with a blade razor. It is not suitable for use with an electric razor.

What is the best way to apply the lather?

Apply the lather evenly to your face and neck, ensuring all beard hairs are covered, and rub in evenly with circular movements until a lather is formed.

Troubleshooting

Lather not forming properly.

Ensure you are using enough soap and water. Use a shaving brush and work the lather thoroughly in a bowl or on your face. Add water gradually until the lather is rich and creamy.

Skin irritation after shaving.

Check your razor's sharpness. Ensure your skin is well-hydrated. Consider using a pre-shave cream or aftershave balm designed for sensitive skin. If the irritation persists, the product may not be suitable for your skin type.

Strong menthol sensation is too intense.

Use less soap or try using a pre-shave oil to create a barrier and reduce direct contact with the menthol. Consider trying a different Proraso product with a milder fragrance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Wet your face and neck with warm water to soften the beard and open pores.

  3. Application: Apply the lather evenly to your face and neck, ensuring all beard hairs are covered.

Compatibility:

This shaving soap is compatible with all beard types, but those with sensitive skin should exercise caution due to the menthol content. It is designed for use with a shaving brush and a sharp razor. It complements other Proraso products, such as pre-shave creams and aftershave balms, for a complete grooming routine.
