Any tips for lathering Nuavia

[elmerPHuD]

I recently purchased some Nuavia Blue. It comes with specific instructions (see photo). I usually just load my brush, start a face lather, and keep adding water. Anybody have suggestions? I have not used it yet, but I got tagged in the Mr. Fancy Pants challenge and want to use it for that.

Just go for it. Doesn't require anything special. Well, other than a quiet den, some candles and a little bite of caviar half way through your shave.

That paper is real good for starting your kindling. I just loaded my brush like I always do off the top and get great lather.

The sample that @Dave in KY so graciously gave me. Of the Rossa was excellent. And I used it the same as I would any soap. Prolly my next soap purchase. Just a bit bummed that they don’t put it in the clay jars anymore.

"Exactly 3 grams"....... "Exactly 7 grams"???? You are going to need to buy a really precise scale!

I was able to get a green clay jar. It is a fantastic soap.
They still have this
PannaCrema Nuàvia Verde

It is from England but I got one took about 3 weeks. Not to bad price. Like 58 bucks shipped. They have free shipping for like 70 bucks or so?

I am sure you all know, but the 2020 glass jar versions are available in US at PannaCrema $42 books with free shipping. I want to pick up the Rossa after the summer.

Funny this sould come up as I mentioned it in the Soap Titan Shoot out. Lather it not different that you do now , just float a bit of water ( hot or cold ) on the puck, 1 teaspoon, pour that into the brush, lather and add a few more drops as needed.

Stinks that they got rid of the ceramic, those were worth the price of entry, now generic packaging GRRRR, LOL

I have a very precise beam scale to measure my gunpowder loads. But don’t use it to shave.

Thanks @BarberDave BTW, there was a question on the Facebook group for wet shaving content creators that asked who we thought was someone who did videos that deserved more followers/views because their content was so good. I said you and linked to your YT channel.
