I got an erasmic shave stick a while ago, at the price it seemed daft not to!
When I use it I splash warm water on my face and then rub the stick against my face but hardly any soap seems to be being transfered to my face, the water on my face seems to be being removed by the stick an the stick becomes dry very quickly. After about a mnute or so of this I have a very thin and patchy/splotchy bits of soap spread across my chops. When I lather this with the brush it at first whips up brilliantly and looks great and smooth and with the 1st touch of the razor feels ok but I can practically see the soap drying and disappearing in front of my eyes! By the time I have finished my cheek I am having to apply more soap. Its getting very annoying!
I also use TOBS The Shaving Shop cream, no probs and have used wilkinson's sword soap in a bowl again with no problems. What am I doing wrong with the stick? :huh:
