And I am NOT skimping on lather in the morning -- in fact, just the opposite, because I now use a stiff boar brush to make mountains of lather and I shave with three full passes. It's just that, instead of dissolving in the bottom of a mug, the soap is now being used entirely on my face for lather.
Seriously, the soap lid costs about $15, and a good puck of shaving soap costs about $12, which means that this soap lid basically pays for itself in less than two months!
