Nowadays I'm not even bothering to whip up a lather with the brush and shaving soap, but simply using for the canned aresol shaving cream.

I find that it's faster, less messy and more effective than the lather I get from soap, which tends to disolve as it rests on my face.

Is anyone with me on this, or are you all purists who use the brush 'n' mug?

Or does anyone switch back and forth between the two methods?
