ADDING LIQUID GLYCERIN to SHAVING SOAP?

[LMAN007]

I was wondering , while making lather in a bowl, using a puck soap(honeybee soaps), mashed-up ARKO in a bowl, or a cream(Proraso),will it help to make a richer, thicker, and quicker lather

by adding a few drops of LIQUID GLYCERIN?

Glycerin always helps. I add it to tough lathering soaps. If a soap lathers well on its own then I skip the glycerin

Trying mixing both glycerin and shaving cream with your soap for an uberlather.

I add liquid glycerin to some aftershaves, like Clubman ASL. I've never tried it with soaps before.

It can change the "slick" of a soap to add glycerine. It also seems to help build more lather. I've not done it a quite a while as I have started face lathering with all my soaps and only use creams to bowl lather with and they do not seem to need anything to get way more lather whipped up than I can use.

Use cosmetic grade glycerine. I got mine at a local big box pharmacy
