2nd, well...I didn't really have anything else in mind to say, yet I feel I must. Oh wait, this is a product listing!!! I think I began celebrating a bit to early...in the morning. Regardless, do I have a classic, clean, refreshing scent for you, Enlightener Well! Doesn't roll off the tongue like the sing, song name of the bar soap we pay homage to, but at least it's historical, no?

Look at this as a dual toast to St. Paddy, The Enlightener of Ireland, and a tip of me cap to a certain nostalgic Irish time o' year! ;)

If ever there was a time machine that could send you back, it's this mesmerizing green scent of all that is good and vernal in this world and Ireland! Take a trip back to a more innocent time when all that was fresh and new came in a green box and magically appeared, like a trained, mute leprechaun when you whistled!
CUBE 2.0?
CUBE - 8 ounces and 6 sides of solid otherworldliness. CUBE is not your everyday preshave. CUBE takes your shave to another dimension adding extra protection, hydration, slickness and glide. A powerhouse of slick with a kick of Banana Oil!

Why is Preshave Soap BETTER Than Preshave Oil?

Well first off, as with anything in life, it all comes down to personal preference. I can tell you why I think it's better, but in the end, do what works for you! First off, unlike using oil, a Preshave Soap will not gunk up your gear and rinses away easy.

I was seriously turned off by all the clean up involved when using oils. Plus I was always concerned about it getting into my favorite brushes undetected and going rancid. Also, applying oil with your hands then holding onto a blade is not the safest move in my book. [That said, if you currently use an oil, apply it with your non-shaver hand!] In short, Preshave Oils inspired me to find a better way!

Why a Preshave Soap is More Effective

A preshave soap really offers more bang for your buck; for one, it's more affordable and longer lasting. Use it first to clean the face before you shave, then rinse. Then reapply the soap prior to whipping up lather: First in a circular motion, then against the grain. The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to "bite" on to. The glycerin acts as a humectant pulling more water into the hair, prepping and softening it, thus making it a bigger target to mow down!
