Customer Reviews of Omega 46001 Shaving Cream in Bowl
Customer Review: Omega, grreat shaving soap
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been wet shaving for approx 7 weeks now, 3 weeks with DE razors and the last 4 weeks with a couple of straight razors. For all of the lather I make using soaps and creams I use a $35 Parker badger brush bought here on Amazon, and I also have a $7 boar hair brush bought at the local drug store, to get me by until the better badger brush arrived. First of all, to make good lather with Omega shaving soap, you should fill the top of the soap cup with hot water and let sit while you shower, along with your shaving brush...let your shave brush sit in your shave cup with hot water too while you shower so the badger hair soaks up the water. Leaving hot water sit on top of your Omega soap cup will allow the soap to soften so when you're done showering (I always shower before shaving my face to prep my beard), the soap will be easier to work up in your brush
Make sure you fling the water out of your shave brush before you load your shave brush with soap as too much water in the shave brush will not allow the shave brush hair to pick up the soap to create lather. This is what you're trying to do, to load your brush with soap then take that brush with the soap in it to your shave cup or scuttle to create lather. Make sure you swirl your brush in the Omega soap for at least 30 seconds, so as to allow the soap to cling to the bristles (hair) of the brush. Once the brush is filled with soap, time to start lathering by swirling the brush with the soap in it around and around in your soap cup or scuttle. Ocassionally use some drops of water to mix with the brush and soap and keep working the brush in the cup until you form a nice lather. This can be done in under one minute, along with adding dribbles of hot water into the cup. You'll have to deternmine the proper ratio of water to add to your brush and soap. I like a wet lather but not so wet that the lather drips off my face
Speaking entirely of my experience with Omega soap and a $35 badger brush, I was able to make enough lather filling the brush after swirling it in the soap cup for 30 seconds to last for a 3 pass shave with soap leftover for touch ups. The quality of the lather this soap produces allows my straight razor to effortlessly glide over the most hard to shave portions of my beard, namely my chin area. Anyways, Omega shaving soap is most favored and used frequently in my shave soap rotation. Don't let the low price of Omega soap fool you into thinking this is not a good shave soap. IMO, it is one of my better shaving soaps, edging out soaps costing twice as much. Worked properly into a lather, this is truly fine shaving soap. Remember, let the soap soak with hot water sitting on top while you shower, and make sure your shave brush is fairly dry before swirling the brush in the soap yet soak the brush in how water while you shave...and take your time whipping this soap into a lather in your shave cup or scuttle along with some water added during lathering. Shave well!
