    My original post was missing information. I have been wet shaving for over 40 years, started with an Old Spice kit; mug, puck, after shave and brush. About 20 years ago I started to add about 3 drops of olive oil to the lather to make my face slicker. I started with the straight razor a couple of years ago and that has opened up a whole new world for me.

    The only soap I have had problems lathering was a puck from Armani, I grated it together with some Arko and made a very nice soap, wish I could get more Armani.

    This discussion has caused me to rethink the necessity of adding the olive oil but I will definitely not forget the Aqua.
    Thanks for all the suggestions and advice.

    A healthy skepticism of both old and new ideas is essential to learning.
