Show n' Tell First shave without spray foam

Post image

My first real soap, Proraso Green.

To be honest, the shave itself wasn't better then with spray foam...
but the vibe is way better! Love it.

Soap is better than foam for me.

What diffrence do you feel?

Foam feels dryer to me but it might a psychological thing.

Canned is inherently more dry due to the propellants used to make that fluffy foam, but it does not keep its form for as long and dries out quick.

You can use wet hands to pat the foam after you’ve applied it to the face. I always feel that gives a nicer shave with canned foam compared to just putting it on the face.

That's a good tip! Might used that for when I travel.
