My dad used to shave with a straight, lathering with plain old ivory soap. clearly a bad idea, and he gave the whole routine up and went back to a safety razor (some old schick injector) plus canned goo. Has anyone here ever tried to use ivory (99 44/100% pure and all that...) plus a moisturizer added? I know it makes little sense when there are so many good products already out there, but I'd be surprised if some of the more hands-on guys on this forum haven't tried...
