Wet Shaving
(04-29-2011, 10:44 AM)Pete Wrote: If you have a Bath & Body Works in your local mall, check out their men's section. They carry the C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream. It comes in a Green Box, which contains a 5.2 oz. tube. Despite the different name/packaging, this shave cream is made by Proraso, and identical to Proraso in every way.

Thought I'd mention . . . they now also sell a C.O. Bigelow exfoliating bar soap. It's basically like showering with Proraso!


Very, aaaah, invigorating. Bounce

Thanks fellas Ill give them both a shot when I get back. I just got a Gilette shaving foam with menthol in a care package and loved the stuff. I dont know about going to Bath and Body Works though. Not after giving my wife a hard time for years of dragging me there. I dont wanna give her a reason to go.

When I was in Vegas, the Art of Shaving store got me in on this. I remembered you guys raving about wet shaving, so I was an easy sell. Now, I'm looking at getting a kit for my dad for Father's Day.

Anyone have a good resource for general tips and tricks? For example, brush care, proper way to use the bar style soaps, etc?

Just found a 'new' product for shaving. Instead of going for the traditional canned shaving cream... I saw a Burt's Bee's product. Tried it. Loved it. Best shave I've had for a long time... this stuff blows those gillette gels/creams out of the water. Highly suggest trying some if you can find it.
