Take a Closer Look

This formula with nourishing natural active ingredients regenerates dry skin and is specially formulated for tough or coarse beards (it softens even the thickest and toughest beards).

This Proraso Shaving Soap in a Bowl softens even the thickest and coarsest beards, allowing the blade to glide easily and making the beard easier to shave. This formula is made using Proraso's signature "hot soap" process, resulting in a very rich soap that produces a superior lather. Enriched with Sandalwood Oil for its calming and soothing effect, and Shea Butter to keep skin soft and supple, skin is left moisturized and nourished, protected from razor burn, and with the warm, woodsy scent of Sandalwood.

Customers praised this shaving soap for creating "great lather" with minimal product and a "lovely" sandalwood scent. Most found it easy to use and long-lasting with excellent value. Skin feels soft and moisturized after use. One customer noted the scent was more floral than woody, though lather quality remained good.

  • Creates great lather. Nice subtle odour. Seem to use very little to create good foam.
  • This is amazing! Lathers nicely and lasts for ever. Highly recommend.
  • Really softens up those barb-wire whiskers. Provides a rich, luxurious shave experience.

proraso sandlewood with shea butter shaving soap bowl 150 ml

A very good shaving soap which lathers up well and stays on skin until shaving is done.
A lovely scent and good for skin with the Shea butter.
This size of bowl is ideal to hold and should last for many shaves.
There are refill for the bowl when you run out.

Ideal for coarse beards and sensitive skin.

Having tried a few shave soaps/ cremes over my 35+ years of shaving I can confidently state that this is the best value shave soap for me. I have alternated between this and the Proraso Sensitive (also good). Of the two, this is my favourite. I have extremely sensitive skin and really coarse facial hair. This soap does as advertised and really softens up those barb-wire whiskers. It provides a rich, luxurious shave experience. I add hot water to the shave bowl it comes in and let the soap "bloom" for at least 10 minutes. This helps speed up the lathering and creates a voluptious amount of rich foam. I have found that the shea butter in the soap leaves my skin sufficiently moisturised (not greasy) post-shave. It must be the added shea butter. The sandalwood fragrance is really good too.

Excellent shave soap with nice scent

First ever shaving soap and glad I started here. Lathers easily for me as a beginner, easy on the skin and my favourite scent of the 3 Proraso soaps. Amazed at how little soap you actually use per shave

Proraso Shaving Soap Sandelwood and Shea Butter.

I have no complaints about the service from Fineshave.
Clear communication and quick delivery.
As to the product, Proraso Sandelwood & Shea Butter.
I have used it 3 times now and while it will not make lots of foam it will make a quality one. Smooth and rich, full of fragrance. Moisturizers the face nicely and provides a very smooth shave. Covers the face with ease.
My last soap was Muhle Sandelwood. I find the Proraso a much fuller scent. Comparing the two for me this is a much better product by performance and results.
No wonder in overseas ratings this shows up in the top five on a regular basis.

Mediocre

While I'd hoped for a wintery, warming version of Proraso's refreshing Green, I was sadly disappointed. The aroma is less earthy/woody and more of a bizarre floral concoction that no-one in the house appreciated; one would need a highly vivid imagination to detect any sandalwood. The lather is otherwise perfectly fine, but it will sit in the back room unused until supply chains prevent more enjoyable soaps reaching these shores sometime in the distant future.

Great Value Soap

Really good value like most Proraso products. Good cushion and protection but not the slickest of soaps.Easy to lather, I really like the scent.
The best service from Fineshave as always.
