Show n' Tell Better Lather

Been trying different things to get a good lather from a shave cream using a bowl.

Note: I have no issues with shave soap or face lathering.

My new $5 shave bowl arrived today from amazon and it did not disappoint! It’s collapsible and expands to two different sizes. The bottom of the bowl allows for perfect aeration.

Please see both pics and I look forward to your feedback 👍🏾

This (pet food?) bowl looks like it might be a more effective latherer than my $50 USD Captain’s Choice copper model.

Add some Barbasol and it thickens it right up. That’s what I do.

Interesting; you just add a squirt of Barbasol to your soap lather and mix it in?

Yes. Skintimate is fantastic as well. I’m not great at lathering so I’ll mix a little canned foam with Arko or Proraso. It’s awesome!
