I had redness on my cheeks above the area that I shave, and suspected that Arko was causing this. So I used canned gel for this shave - sacrilege, I know... but no redness. So, some Proraso Green is on its way now. It's a shame if Arko is to blame, I really like it and have enough to last me the better part of a decade...
