What it does
A small jar of beeswax and shea butter moustache wax that goes on like a cream, dries to a medium hold and carries Proraso's cedar and spice scent.
- Cream to wax texture spreads easily, then firms up as it dries
- Medium hold that can be restyled by dampening with warm water
- Beeswax and shea butter base meant to condition the hair
- Stockists describe it as suited to looks from natural to handlebar
- Matches Proraso's Wood and Spice beard and shave line
A sensible pick for shaping a moustache every day, from an established Italian barber brand at a low price. The hold is medium and soft by design, so anyone wanting a stiff set should look at firmer waxes, and the strong wood and spice scent is something people either like or find too much.
