Hello, Leadduck:

A rich and luxurious lather, one that has body and blankets the face with a slick foam, need not be as high as a mountain. Beyond that slick coat of lather directly over the face, additional foam puffing up all over the face is a waste.

You see commercials of a mountain of foam on the face dispensed from a shave can as being the height of luxury. It make one look like Santa Claus with his beard on steroids. I think people don't realize that beyond what touches the skin directly, the mountains of foam are a waste of money.

The lather I seek is that which brushes a rich layer of silk over my Hollywood face — just enough to cover the skin, not too thick, not too watery, but just a smooth sheet of creamy pleasure.

Regards,

Obie
