How to Use Sandalwood Shaving Cream in a Bowl or Tube

Quick Answer

To use D R Harris Sandalwood shaving cream, load your brush from the bowl or squeeze a small amount from the tube, then build lather directly on your face or in a separate bowl. Both formats deliver the same rich, aromatic lather—choose based on convenience and longevity.

Step-by-Step Lathering Guide

1. Soak Your Brush: Soak your shaving brush in warm water for a few minutes to soften the bristles. Shake out excess water—the brush should be damp, not dripping. A well-soaked brush creates a richer lather; too much water will make it runny.
2. Load the Cream: If using the bowl, swirl the damp brush over the surface of the cream to load the bristles. If using the tube, squeeze a small amount—about the size of an almond—onto the brush or into a lather bowl. Start with less cream; you can always add more, but you can't remove excess.
3. Build the Lather: If you're using a separate bowl, swirl the brush in the bowl in a circular motion. If you prefer face lathering, apply the loaded brush directly to your damp face and work in circles. Add a few drops of water as needed to achieve a thick, creamy lather. Patience is key—a good lather takes 30-60 seconds of vigorous swirling.
4. Apply and Shave: Spread the lather evenly over your beard area using the brush. Shave with your preferred razor, using short strokes. Rinse the blade frequently. A thick, slick lather protects your skin and allows the razor to glide smoothly.
5. Rinse and Store: After shaving, rinse your brush thoroughly and shake out excess water. Replace the lid on the bowl or tube to keep the cream fresh. Store in a cool, dry place. Proper storage extends the life of your cream and prevents it from drying out.
