Troubleshooting
Difficulty creating a lather
Ensure your shaving brush is thoroughly wet before loading the soap. Try adding slightly more warm water to the lather as you build it. Using a dedicated lathering bowl can also help.
Soap seems to be drying out quickly
Make sure to rinse the soap thoroughly after each use to remove residual lather. Allow the soap to air dry completely before closing the tin. Store in a dry location.
Razor is not gliding smoothly
Ensure you are creating a rich, thick lather. Apply a generous amount to your face. Check that the soap hasn't dried on the brush or skin during the shaving process.
Skin irritation after shaving
While the soap is moisturizing, ensure your razor blade is sharp and that you are not applying excessive pressure. Rinse your face thoroughly after shaving and consider using an aftershave balm.
