Do the Proraso pre-shave, or glycerin soaps generally have any direct effect on lather? What I am curious about, is does aid keeping, or improving the lather, or make it last any longer? Or would you say it was negligible?
You should try other soaps. High St one do the same for me. Gemstone shaving have nice soaps. Also you can use Neutrogena when available in £ shopsNewcomer said:Hi, I recently noticed these on a trip to Waitrose:

Interestingly, I haven't seen this kind of thing from any of the regular shops or supermarket stores where I am at all. To date, I haven't used any of the products myself, but they seem reasonably priced. Obviously, I guess this is not in the league of Musco, etc, but might be worth a try at this price. (The Waitrose pure glycerine soap seems to have a lot less ingredients in it than the scented ones).
For the people that use glycerin type soaps regularly as a pre-shave, does it have any affect on drying your skin out at all? I have very sensitive skin and generally I never use bar soap, because I find it too drying on my skin. I always use liquid soaps.
Thanks

I use Neutogena Glycerin Bar [ Made in USA] just as effective as Musgo Real & Ach Brito.Mr_Smartepants said:Whosthedaddy said:I use Proraso pre shave and no, it doesn't affect the lather.
You're lucky. I use the proraso pre-shave and it DOES affect the lather for certain soaps (at least for me.)
I've only got a couple of weeks use left of the proraso, I probably won't buy it again.
I do use RazoRock mentholated lime preshave soap, it's a 'pure' glycerin soap and it offers lovely glide and does not affect the lather. I'm also told that the neutrogena glycerin "face bar" works as a good preshave.
