I'd maybe hold off on the Proraso gel just now, it can tend to congeal in the tube after opening if not used frequently. Nothing wrong with that Omega in its price range. If cost is a factor then you should be able to pick up a bottle of witch hazel from a High St. Chemist for less than the Thayers ( which is good stuff ). D R Harris is an excellent soap which should work well for you, although there are other, less costly, options out there. The other big items are the razor and blades, if you have any input into this gift I'd suggest considering an Edwin Jagger 89 with either Astra blades or an assorted pack of blades from Connaughts to give you a range from whivh to choose.
Enjoy the journey and please don't be a stranger on here, let us know how it goes.

I think the Proraso gel is the worst value ever. A very small tube, and only lasts two or three times. An alum block is just as good unless you really injure yourself! They last forever unless you drop them on a tiled floor!
I have never used the pencils but am sure plenty here have. Maybe I was just unlucky with the gel only lasting one or two cuts. I'm sure you will soon not get any cuts that alum won't solve.
