I put a small dap on a hot brush and mix in a hot mug after steaming face with hot cloth 3 times while letting hot water run on mug. Stirring in a mug makes the best foam as wet or dry as you like . I now use nothing else as it is very slick. Try this the hot mug and brush allways makes the foam hot .

Like most TAOS products, it's not bad -- just overpriced relative to quality. It's pretty similar to the highly regarded Taylors of Old Bond Street lavender -- which is HALF the price. And simply not even in the same league as the similarly priced Castle Forbes version.

I personally love this product. I feel I get a great shave and I absolutely love the smell.

I've been using this excellent product for years!! I will keep using this great product for years to come!

Smells great, goes on smooth and makes shaving easier.

Bought pretty oil shave cream and aftershave a must no razor burn use good quality razor really works

I love the lavender shaving cream by The Art of Shaving. I wandered into the store one day and was skeptically sold on a starter kit. From the moment I tried it I was hooked. It is much better than traditional shaving cream. It turns shaving from a chore to an experience. I now shave my head several times a week and shave almost daily whereas before I put it off as often as possible. I really like the lavender scent and it's not overly masculine so my wife sometimes uses it as well.

I've tried everything from gels to foams, and all the sensitive skin stuff. One shave with this and all the pain went away. Warm water lathering with the brush is the highlight of my week! And the smell is quite nice, but i want to try sandalwood next.

The shaving cream is thicker and more pleasantly scented than any shave cream I have ever used in the past. It makes the razor glide over my skin as smoothly as if it were moving through air.

the only downside to this shaving cream was that it clumped up in my razor. I had to take a little extra time to clean he razor after each stroke.
