I'm in the midst of a water hardness spike here in my town. We have hard water normally but every so often the hardness seems to spike for 4 or 5 days. I know this is happening because all of the sudden I get instant residue on my razor.
I used Cella today to see how it would perform in this uber hard water. I did my usual 20 second spin on the soap and proceeded to face lather. The lather was thin and fizzy. I made my first pass anyhow and I still had surprisingly good glide and cushion. A great first pass in spite of the sub-par lather. So, is super hard water the end of Cella? No sir!
I just hit the soap again and picked up more product. Passes two and three had the usual thick creamy lather that I expect from this amazing soap. I had to return to the soap one last time for pass four.
Gentlemen, this wonder soap works great in very hard water. The solution is simple. Just use more product. You'll know you've got enough product on the brush if when you proceed to face lather the initial deposit of product on your face is an opaque creamy spread; almost like an ointment. From there you'll be able to produce wonderful lather.
You know, when the water is like this I have to use more cream too; almost double the normal amount. With Cella and water like this 40 seconds on the soap probably would have done the trick.
