MWF as face wash?

Hey guys,

I am a big fan of MWF. It leaves my face feeling great...so much so that I'll even lather up and wash it off if I'm not going to shave

I was curious though if MWF the shaving soap can be used to wash your whole face? Could just rub the puck on your hands and then rub it into your face, then rinse. Anyone try this before?

I've done it with different soaps that I really didnt care for..just turned them into hand/body soap...I think MFW also make a bath soap if I'm not mistaken..forgot where I've seen it...

I've actually tried the bath soap. Found it a bit drying. Didn't quite have the same properties as the shave soap

Yes MWF do make a body soap, try West Coast Shaving.

They have bath soap and shower gel for sale.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I'm curious if the Shaving soap has the sufficient properties to act as a face wash? Or will it not work so hot?

Are shaving soaps formulated in such a way that they don't cleanse well, or leave residue if used as a regular soap?

Your skin is the ultimate judge. It works for me: I generally face-lather with a soap or cream in the evening, without shaving.

The entire face or just the normal shave zone?

Entire face - there is plenty of lather.

My Washed Face.

I will certainly give it a try and see how it goes. Thanks guys.

I do it all the time with whatever soap or cream i'm using, never had a problem, in fact I don't use bath soap or face wash any more. MWF leaves the face in great shape.

Been a user of MWF bath soap for about a year. Great stuff!

All shaving soaps are soap, even if not all soaps are shaving soap.

True but shaving soaps have more goodies for your skin on top of getting you clean.

I did not like MWF as a shave soap. So I put the puck in the shower and used it as I would a bar of soap. It worked just fine.

What (or which specific ingredients) makes a shaving soap less effective than a cleansing soap as a face wash?

Every time I shave with MWF, I wash my face in it after the last pass.

Go for it.

Can't see how it would hurt anything, I might try this as well. I usually have plenty of left over lather in my brush for this.

Another good use is a urinal.

I think you've confused MWF and Tabac
