Vegetarian Route
Cream/Soap: Shea Butter (custom) / Pre De Provence (occasionally)
Brush: N/A / Muhle Vegan 23mm (w/PDP)
Razor: Iwasaki
Stones: Shapton Glass up to 2k > Tshushima Ocean Black [5k-7k] > Okudo Suita [20k]
Wisdom for Vegetarians:
1. There is shaving cream because of rendered animal fat, if you want to avoid animal products, then it's called soap.
2. There are two kinds of soap, glycerin is in all two of them.
3. Glycerin can be 100% kosher vegetable or animal-derived. Unless you are willing to avoid washing your hands after pissing at a rest stop, you will engage animal glycerin. Don't be an extremist.
4. Glycerin lathers differently, don't treat it like animal fat.
5. Synthetic brushes make lather.
6. Glycerin glides~
7. Shea even better~
8. Both Shea and Gly will produce \su-'pir-ē-or\ shaves; don't be deterred
9. Neither Shea nor Gly will clog your pores like animal fat.
10. Don't feel inferior, don't act superior; share wisdom~
But Why?:
Very simply, non animal fat-based shaving soap shaves just fine. Synthetic brushes make lather just fine. It's shameful that we 'grade' hair acquired through the torture of beings. It's shameful that we think 3ml more lather obtained 30sec faster is somehow worth the sort of treatment of beings we thoughtlessly accept.
Soap Ingredients:
Pre de Provence: Potassium Palmate, Sodium Palmate, Potassium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Glycerin, Aqua (Water), Fragrance, (Parfum), Palm Kernel Acid, Sodium Chloride, Pentasodium Pentetate, Tetrasodium Etidrontate, Rosemary Extract - Soybean Oil (Rosemariunus Officinalis - Glycine Soja)
