Thread: To keep or not keep the goop

I generally use bath and body works shaving cream C.O. Bigelow but sometimes I use a cake of Van Der Hagen soap in a mug.
My question for today is how many of you rinse out all of the lather from the mug when you are finished shaving with the cake of soap. As for myself I rinse it all out when I am done. I don't like the thought of the goop in the bottom. Mack

Yes I rinse it out too... I don't want to be growing things on it otherwise!!

I never remove it. It's not 'goop', it's soap or cream. I've done it this way for two years and have never experienced a problem. The 'goop' dries out quickly and virtually disappears.

I don't bother to rinse it out either and so far so good.

I don't bother, but I lather in a separate bowl, from the ones I keep the soap in, so that generates a lot less ( and much cleaner) goop.

I always rinse & dry it with a cloth, spotless every time. I'm a bit of a clean freak though!

If I left the goop in the container, I'd probably just think about it being there all day, haunting me. I like it clean

I know I lose a bit of soap rinsing it out with hot water but that's the chance I take.

I wash everything, cup, brush, razor, sink, and tidy up after my shave.
This keeps mama happy and result is that she is very tolerant of my obsession with shaving with the straight.

I rinse the mug.

A member utopia use to remove any left over lather from his brush and mug and put it back on the top of his soap pucks. Said one puck of soap would last him for years and years. I seem to recall saying he had one that took him 10 years to use up.
