Over last couple of weeks I’ve started using Savon de Marseille olive oil soap in the shower.
I use it on my face then go for my shave.
I’ve been noticing my shave soaps have been losing their slickness when applied to my skin despite being creamy goodness after my bowl lathering. Today it got so bad the lather kinda disolved /evaporated when applied and by the second pass my skin was actually grippy so my razor was skipping.
All I can think is it’s my soap, as nothing else has changed in my routine.
The ingredients are listed as: Sodium Olivate, Sodium cocoate; aqua (water), Sodium chloride, Sodium hydroxide.
Naturally, I’ll be swapping to something else for my face prep tomorrow (got some cerave cleanser knocking about), but wondered if anyone else had this happen or able to shed any light on it?
