FAQs

What is included in the Proraso Primadopo Vintage Nourishing Selection Tin?

The tin includes four essential grooming products: a Pre-Shave Cream, a Shaving Cream, an After-Shave Balm, and a vintage-style tin for storage.

Are these products suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, Proraso products are formulated with natural ingredients and are free from parabens, silicones, and artificial colors, making them suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

How do I achieve the best lather?

Use a shaving brush to apply the shaving cream. Wet the brush with warm water, apply a small amount of cream, and lather in a bowl or directly on your face until a rich, creamy lather forms.

What is the scent profile of this set?

The set features an invigorating scent of eucalyptus and menthol, providing a refreshing and long-lasting fragrance.

Can I travel with this set?

Yes, the products are conveniently housed in a sturdy vintage tin, making it a good option for travel, provided you comply with any airline liquid restrictions for the creams and balm.

How often should I replace my razor blades when using this set?

It is generally recommended to replace razor blades after every 5-10 shaves, or when you notice pulling or dullness, to ensure optimal performance and minimize skin irritation.

What is the main purpose of the Pre-Shave Cream?

The Pre-Shave Cream is designed to soften the beard, hydrate the skin, and create a protective barrier to help prevent irritation and razor burn during shaving.

Troubleshooting

Lather is not thick or creamy.

Ensure you are using enough shaving cream and incorporate a small amount of warm water while lathering with a shaving brush. Over-wetting the brush initially can dilute the lather.

Skin feels irritated after shaving.

Confirm you are using the Pre-Shave Cream to prepare the skin and the After-Shave Balm to soothe it. Ensure your razor blades are sharp and change them regularly. Shave with the grain if irritation persists.

Product lid is difficult to open/close.

Ensure no cream residue is dried around the threads. Wipe the threads clean with a damp cloth and try again. Do not overtighten.
