I recently contributed to a “crowdfunding” project on Indiegogo, “Dave’s Shower Shave.” It works kind of like a shave stick: its a puck of shaving soap in a holder (with a little mirror on it), specifically made to be used for shaving in the shower. Unfortunately the project never got to be fully-funded but it continues to be sold on a small-scale through a website, http://davesshave.com/.



Three scents are available: Spruce Jojoba, Mandarin Mint, and Sage Bergamot. As you might suspect, Spruce Jojoba is a woody scent, Mandarin Mint is predominantly citrus, and Sage Bergamot is herbal to my nose. It is low-lathering (just rub it on your wet face and massage it in with your fingers) though it seems to be brush-friendly too. I normally don’t shave in the shower so when I do I don’t tempt fate with a DE. Instead I use a Sensor-compatible two blade razor. I don’t try for “baby’s butt smooth” either but I can get a fine 1.5 pass shave with Dave’s. It’s nice. Take a look at this if you shave in the shower.

Ingredients (paraphrased): saponified oils of olive, palm, coconut; shea butter, kaotin clay, tea tree oil.
