The white is for sensitive skin or so I believe.Admittedly, I have spent far too much time amassing stuff and creating variables, which means that me research is flawed/poor and so I’m hoping that the collective wisdom can help.
As the weather Cools and I’m enjoying my more aggressive 6c I’m noticing that my Nivea sensitive pro balm followed by Cerave spf 15 is leaving my skin feeling a little dry.
The problem I have is that my Rosacea limits my ability to have a heavier moisturiser and so I’m looking to my shave cream to ‘do more’
i currently have green and blue Proraso cream and balm (but all 4 pre shave) and I’m wondering whether the other colours may suit better.
Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Ah, but do you think it will add moisture, or protection?The white is for sensitive skin or so I believe.

Ah, I don't know for sure but I guess it's worth a try.Ah, but do you think it will add moisture, or protection?
My bad !I've used Proraso White and Green creams. The Green was fine but the White cream made my face burn.
Pretty much any shaving cream with the word 'sensitive' in the title made my face, including the ones from Palmolive and Nivea as well.
My bad !

Just kidding mate but your right, we can all react differently to any skin product.It's a funny one that, I myself never would have thought the sensitive versions to be worse than their counterparts for irritation! But every one's skin is different. If I was looking for a soap that was good for sensitive skin and didn't dry my skin I would recommend them Mitchell's Wool Fat, but it works for my skin but others might react to the lanolin (or other ingredients) in it.
You may want to look at Signature Soaps Capra unscented goats milk soap, it's very easy on problem skin, I love it!
Edit: I can send you a sample if you wish.

Yes it's a tricky one, I hope you can find a shaving soap or cream that works for you.Hi
In using one of the Capra soaps at the mo which is great but now it’s getting colder and I’m using a more effective razor my skin feels more ‘exposed’ because, due to Rosacea, I can’t use a heavy winter moisturiser that I might have done previously.
Currently using Cerave spf which is pretty light and so great for the summer, but starting to feel lacking. Due to Rosacea I can’t pile a load of products in and so I’m trying to find a shaving cream that adds moisturiser.
if I leave the house having not shaved then the Cerave is good enough
Yes, unhelpfully topical skin sensitivity can do this. It isn't always a simple on/off - allergic or not allergic reaction. You can be a little sensitive to an ingredient but nothing shows until say, you use it five times in a row and it builds to a level that will provoke irritation. As you say, confusing. - I.many of the products that I normally use OK start to play me up which can make things confusing.
