I'm not quite sure how to say this, so I'll just come straight out with it and not beat around the bush. I hope no-one finds it offensive.

I have been thinking recently about shaving cream and lubricity - the more lubricious, the better the shave, other things being equal, right?

So, today I added a couple of squeezes of water-based personal lubricant to my lather as I mixed it up.

Well. I had one of the smoothest shaves I've had in quite some time, no joke. It's only a one-off trial at the moment, so I may be kidding myself. But I intend to keep experimenting with it and will report my findings.

James.
