Do you apply the oil to the zone you shave, or was that just a tip for keeping hands moisturized lol?
Thanks for the advice!
No, no olive oil. Just olive oil soap.
To make soap you take a fat and an alkaline and mix them (to put it simply) e.g. olive oil and sodium hydroxide. One of my friends hand makes bars of soap, and it’s really good for shaving with, though I can’t use it all the time for my hands as real my skin dry! Other soaps will work just as well, I just mentioned that soap specifically as it was vegan.
Very cool! I've actually wanted to get into making soap myself
