Lather Shots

Tommy,

I bloom it with hot tap water, and let it sit while in the shower.

I then dump the bloom water into an empty bowl and set off to the side.  I shake out all of the water from my soaking badger brush, and load for about a minute in the puck.  

Then I wet my face, and have a second dry puck of I Coloniali that I use as a shave stick.  

After that I build the lather on my face with the loaded brush.  If I need more water, I lightly dip the tips of the brush into the bloom water.

This seems to work well for me.

Today’s shave with I Coloniali Mango...again!  Simply beautiful shave!

Just for you guys in the thread....

From today’s shave I used SV Manna di Sicilia 4.0 with a scrape of mango and kokum before the bloom

Why?

I had I Coloniali in the terracotta bowl, and It was great.

I saw a chap do it on YouTube, and figured I would give it a try.  It worked great, and so now that’s part of my method for lathering I Coloniali Mango.  There are many roads that lead to Rome.
