In this video, I use a Schick Injector and Palmolive shave cream out of the tube. Come on in and join me as we shave and see how well this vintage razor works.

I will have to wait until I get home to watch. Those are great razors and the palmolive cream is solid.

When I use a cream from a tube, I wet my face and then take about a 3/4 inch dollop in the tip of my left forefinger. I spread it over my beard, wet my brush, shake it off, and begin to build the lather right on my face. I have enough left in the brush for another pass and plenty to wash down the drain. I could probably do three passes, but that is unnecessary for me. I am using C.O. Bigelow tomorrow. Thinking of making a lathering video.

Great video Jim! I use the very same technique when face lathering a cream from a tube. What are your favourite creams in this format?

Thanks. Along with the C.O. Bigelow, I like Musgo Real and Tabac. I also have Palmolive and three scents of Old Spice. I use mostly hard soaps though because they last longer.

I wish YouTube guys would properly identify the razors being featured,"Schick Injector" is no more informative than "Gillette DE".

It's not for my benefit I made the comment but for folks who don't know the Schick range. If you're going to the trouble of making a video featuring a razor, spend a couple minutes to figure out what you're shaving with so folks might know if they're interested in trying one out. ordinaryshaver is not the only culprit, it's a reflection of the Gillette-centric nature of the wet shaving hobby.
