Face lathering does seem to mean that I can get a serviceable shave with ‘the fat’ but it would appear that the brush used also makes a difference. Last time a 24mm tuxedo was used and was ok, today I thought a 22mm synth might be even better, but no it was worse as it did not hold enough soap, so at the half way point I had to reload. Barely enough left at the end for face wash! But decent shave anyway, no issues and face left smooth and nice feeling and smelling!
