Pro Tip

Begin with either the Astra or Gillette blade to build confidence. Once you're comfortable, switch to Feather for an ultra-close finish. Both brushes work equally well with bowl or face lathering.

How to Lather

Start by soaking your brush in warm water for 30 seconds, then gently shake out excess water. Load the brush by swirling it directly onto the shaving soap for 20–30 seconds to build a paste-like consistency. Move to a shaving bowl or your damp face and use circular motions to whip the loaded brush into a rich, dense lather. Add drops of water as needed to achieve a creamy, yogurt-like texture. Apply the lather evenly across your face using light pressure for optimal cushion and glide.
