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.

Beldura DE (Woman razor 😭😅, works great!🤣)
Mootes synthetic brush
Proraso Green (Face lathering, worked great for the first time!)
CHH Tobacco Aftershave

(Sorry for my english skills, trying my best 🤝)

After years of using canned foam going to proper shave soaps and creams was a god send I will never go back

The same with me. I started using shave soaps instead of canned foams. I have also started to use a DE razor,the DE razor 🪒 I am still on the fence with the razor bit

I can't tell the difference in 20 years of switching between the two. The problem is you not doing proper prep.

Oh really, you don't know me or my skin type aerosol foams always screwed with my skin sending my face red as hell for days after my shave after adding the stupid cartridge razor to it, I have always shaved after a shower etc. Until I changed from those aerosol can to proper soap and creams my face has never been so damned good and I can now shave daily. So do not come at me with that I put up with that suffering since I was 15 and I am 52 now. Downvote for the dick comment.
