    Default Latherin.... it is a good thing.

    I have the opinion that "Latherin" is central to a good shave.
    This is what I am "Lathering" with this week. It happens to
    be an inexpensive kit as well.

    • The Brush is inexpensive: Omega 1098 Professional Boar shaving brush.
    • The bowl was a couple bucks -- it is a plastic salsa bowl from the local market.
    • The soap is Cella save soap.


    No mater what kit you have, practice, experiment. It took a while before I learned
    to pick up "a lot" of Cella soap then in the bowl build the lather adding warm water
    dribble by dribble.

    As the weather shifts I expect to switch to a cream in a green tube
    simply because I have it.

    The bigger the brush the bigger the bowl you will want to lather in.
    This salsa bowl was a find. Inexpensive, large enough for all my
    brushes, smooth with slight dimpling inside and out and easy to
    hold onto with wet hands. Plastic... it will not break easy.

    Latherin.... it is a good thing and need not break the bank.
