  Quasi Brushless
Posted by: ischiapp - 08-16-2023, 06:08 PM - Forum: Shave Talk - Replies (1)

Lately, I'm using a vintage canned Proraso Bianco shaving foam.

Proraso White Ultrasensitive Skin

As many vintage, It's super dense. I prefer this to the current one.
With all that kind of product, I normally try the "Quasi Brushless" technique.
Big word to say just add water with a the brush ... on a formerly brushless soap.

This way the product works better, with a higher primary lubrification.
IMHO the best results can easily compare with simple formula soap or cream.
This one for sure. Sadly is discontinued few years ago. It was a great product.
Under the pics is linked my review.

If you do, how does this technique work for you?
What product do you find the best for?

  Enders Menthol Monday.
Posted by: Wchnu - 07-23-2023, 04:22 AM - Forum: Other SE brands. - Replies (20)

It's been more then a few minutes since I used this razor. It was in a box that was packed down.  That's really a shame because these things shave great! I see there is an adapter being made but it appears to be sold out right now. I just noticed this video has what is a lot of views for my channel.  Guess the Enders gets attention.
