Your beard works a full day out in the open — wind, weather, coffee steam and whatever the kitchen was cooking. The Proraso Wood & Spice Beard Wash is the reset button: a gentle, low-foaming cleanse for the beard and the skin quietly living underneath it.

TL;DR: A gentle, low-foaming Italian beard wash that cleanses both beard and skin, softening and smoothing the hair while leaving behind cedar, saffron and mildly sweet vanilla. Dermatologically tested and free from parabens, silicones and SLS.

Product Details and Benefits

• Low-foaming, dual-purpose cleanser: Formulated to wash the beard and the skin beneath it, removing dirt, debris and odours without a mountain of lather.
• Softens and smooths: Works to leave coarse, unruly whiskers softer and smoother — the kind of beard a comb can actually get through.
• The Wood & Spice fragrance: The enveloping warmth of fine woods with a cedar heart and notes of rock rose, joined by spicy cumin, saffron and mildly sweet vanilla.
• 83% of ingredients of natural origin*, and formulated with glycerin and salicylic acid.
• Free from the usual suspects: No parabens, phthalates, silicones, mineral oils, artificial colours or SLS.
• Cruelty-free with no ingredients of animal origin.
• Dermatologically tested and made in Italy.
• 200ml bottle, and part of the wider Proraso Wood & Spice beard range alongside the matching beard oil and beard balm if you want the full scent story.

How to Use

1. Wet the beard thoroughly with warm water.
2. Massage a dollop right through the hair and into the skin underneath.
3. Rinse well.

Pro tip: Proraso's barbers recommend keeping the beard and face clean specifically while you're growing one out — new follicles pushing through the skin get irritated when dirt and blockage are in the way. Washing two to three times a week, or as needed, makes the awkward in-between phase far less itchy.

Why You'll Love It

Because a beard that smells of cedar and saffron beats one that smells faintly of Tuesday. Add the Proraso Wood & Spice Beard Wash to your cart and give your face something Italian to look forward to.
