Thanked: 443High desert winter: Lather that won't dry out?
During the work week I live in tiny camper in northwest Colorado, and so shave there as well. The relative humidity is low to start with, then any humidity in the camper condenses out on the window frames and adds to my little personal glacier fields.
In this environment I make my lather, brush it on, and try to shave before it dries into a crust that resembles really nice meringue.
I've only ever used straight lather, either from a puck or from a cream. I lather in a bowl, then brush it on to my washcloth-moistened face.
Is there anything I can add, or a soap/cream I can try, to make a lather that resists drying out in the winter desert world I must shave in? I know I can lather less of my face at a time, but I do like the lather to sit for a little while before I shave through it.
Many thanks."These aren't the droids you're looking for." "These aren't the droids we're looking for." "He can go about his business." "You can go about your business."
