I just shaved with Cremo Cream that I first applied with my hands. I decided to whip it into some lather with a brush. noticeably different qualities.
the shave was pretty good, but I was reading the tube and ...saw that most shave creams and gels are actually foamwhich is primarily air. Visualize a sharp blade scraping across your delicate skin with air as the main lubricant. It tears your skin, creates little cuts and nicks that bleed, and leaves your skin looking and feeling rough.
Second, he saw that even high-end shave lotions primarily contain common ingredients like glycerin and oils that are simply not effective in producing a truly comfortable, smooth shave. Worse, he observed that they claim to contain exotic ingredients that sound appealing, but are in such small quantities, trace ingredients they simply do not have any significant physical benefits.
The solution, Cremo Cream has no air and no trace ingredients: its a rich cream made only from significant, noticeably beneficial ingredients. It contains very unique, super-lubricating, highly-slippery molecules that have been specially compounded with other truly powerful skin conditioners. Together, they make your blade glide smoothly over your skin like an ice skate; they make your hairs stick out and stand up straight so your blade cuts them more deeply; and they nourish and moisturize your skin. Your skin will look and feel astonishingly soft and smooth. Your shave will last longer. Better than anything else you have ever used.
hmmm... while wetshaving uses water, isn't lather just suspended air in the bubbles made by the soap/water mix?
the site then goes on to say that FAQ-#2
Can I use a brush and a bowl with Cremo Cream?
Absolutely! Although Cremo Cream was designed to be brushless and applied with your fingers, you can use a brush and bowl. With your brush, simply mix together a small amount of Cremo Cream with water in a bowl or dish. You may have to experiment a bit with the ratio of water to Cremo Cream so that you get your own perfect lather.
Confusing... though the lather did leave my skin feeling soft and smooth.
