Thanks for the comments,gentlemen.Tabula Rasa is a outstanding shaving cream,worth every penny of its price,but I didnt want to make lather on my palm to be able to use it.Mockingbird said:Thanks, I'll have to give facelathering a go.
Can this be done with L'Occitane cade soap? I've always used a very thin consistency of lather to my face, never to father christmas standards. I'll have to experiment... :shave
Cade soap is more easy to lather than Cade cream,which I find terrible,a shadow of the soap,but thats my opinion.Mockingbird said:Yeah, London has notoriously hard water.
I'll give it a shot with my simpsons duke 3.
Did you use the Cade soap?Mockingbird said:Brilliant. I think I'm a facelathering convert.
I've avoided the father christmas lather because I just went by the advice of lathering in paintbrush strokes up and down.
Lathering with circular movements definitely creates a thicker consistency. :shave
Great! Glad to hear that you enjoy facelathering and Cade soap.I want to get a Simpsons,and I was thinking on a Duke 3,but maybe Ill get a Duke 1 or Berkeley.How do you like your Duke 3?Mockingbird said:Yup, cade soap and duke 3 best.
Still have to play around with how much water to add, but it produced fantastic results.
My "shaving lather bowl" can safely go back to the kitchen after a wash
