Shaving cream vs. shaving soap
I was wondering if there was a difference on how these two were used?
As an inexperienced lather maker, I just viewed Jockeys brush loading YouTube presentation and also the one on Uberlather. As one who just uses a dab of G.F. Trumper rose shaving cream on the end of my brush, or swirls the brush over a warmed soap puck in the bottom of my old coffee cup, I realize now I've really been short changing myself on getting great lather.
My question concerns adding cream to the loaded brush. If you had a favorite scented soap, can you get an unscented cream to add? I don't think I'd like to use a nice rose shaving soap and then have to add a strong citrus shaving cream to it followed by the glycerin. As I enjoy the pure rose scent and wouldn't want to change it with the citrus which I'm not really fond of to begin with.
When using the G.F. Trumper rose shaving cream, do you add additional shaving cream plus the glycerin to obtain the greatest amount of lather?
Can you recommend a source of supply for a unscented shaving cream if this seems to be the right direction to go? Thank you for your patience concerning my inexperience!
