Thread: Can it be the soap???

It can be surprising how much difference the soap can make in the irritation associated with shaving. The right soap can greatly reduce or eliminate the "burn" that comes with after shave application.

I believe the soap can make a difference. I really like Pirates Cove coconut soap in every category except glide. I LOVE the scent and lathers well, but the lubrication is just not good. The first time I used it a few weeks ago, I thought maybe the razor needing honing, but that is not the case. The same razor on other soaps gave a great shave. I did find that adding a dozen or so drops of glycercin seemed to help the lubrication. So, yes the soap can make a difference.

Besides the glide and how great your face feels after using Cella, I find it also excels in standing the hairs up. This is a property that is often overlooked. Flat, limp hairs are difficult to cut... Cella gets 'em up there which definately makes a more comfortable/smoother shave.
