Exactly! I was just going to say that.

My face can't take a lot of face lathering. I like to paint on a thick, velvety, lemon meringue type lather. I'd also recommend NOT washing the Proroso pre-shave after after applying it; put the lather right on top. Maybe also try just a WTG and then a true ATG. I say 'true' as I found I had got a but lazy, and just started going N to S and W to E and E to W without REALLY following the changing grain...
