Thread: No time for the brush what do you do.

Give me a boar brush, proraso cream, a wet face and thirty seconds and I'm set. Proraso is so tolerant of whatever amount of water you throw at it, so I use it when in a rush and don't want to fuss with proper water/cream ratios.. I exclusively face lather, so I don't know if I'm just more used to it or what, but I can get things going super fast.

Other times if I'm late, I just don't shave.

Props to the Proraso. I find it a very forgiving and easy to use soap; great and quick lather, great feeling. Pre/post is great too.

Have you tried the TAoS cream? It sure lathers without a brush...

This makes sense to me -- I find the pre/post cream to be a great
beard softener.

Are you using the SE in this situation Don?

Yea using a Straight, If I am real late I will hit the SE or DE but rarely

Well Don if I was in such a hurry I didn't have time to mess with a brush I'd rather mess with the brush and use a DE over a straight because that means I'm going to be in a hurry and hurry and straight usually doesn't make a good recipe.

This is something that I've kicked around as well. I haven't tried the Proraso foam, but will order a can at first opportunity. I've not had any success with any other brushless options. If I'm in a rush, I usually do a quick face-lather and shave with a Mach3.

See the straight is not an issue I will grab a Henckell 3/8 with a wicked edge a go through as fast as I could with a DE or SE now if I do not fell like stroping I will grab a DE or SE
