Ok, I've been researching pre-shave oils. Granted, the sticky post says we don't need no stinkin' pre-shave; we can just use our regular shave creme or soap and work it in to our skin, rinse it off, then reapply it and shave.
But I've been using AOS pre-shave oil and it DOES seem to help to make the blade a little smoother, etc.
Here's my question: If you look at the ingredients of AOS pre-shave oil, it's castor oil and olive oil. If you look at Anthony Logistics pre-shave oil, it's castor oil, olive oil, and then a bunch of chemicals and scents. SO: has anyone tried just using olive oil as a pre-shave? Or castor oil? If yes, which brand?
I realize "my mileage may vary," but are there cheap alternatives out there for pre-shave oils?
