Troubleshooting
Lather is too thin or dissipates quickly
Ensure you are using enough product and have properly whipped the lather with a wet shaving brush. Try using warmer water or a dedicated shaving bowl.
Experiencing skin irritation or redness
Make sure your razor blade is sharp and clean. Rinse your face with cool water after shaving and consider a post-shave balm. Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure during the shave.
