Better Shaves with a Brush
Decided to try brushes with my Taylor of Old Bond Street shaving cream.  Started with a boar's bristle brush, and now moved up to a badger brush.  This brush is stiffer than the boar brush, feels almost prickly, but in a good way.  Doesn't splay out the way the boar brush did (it wass quite a bit softer).  Can control the cream better and am looking forward to years of service from this brush.  Only drawback is the lack of included stand, had to purchase a new one to hold it ($8 chrome one).  Gave my old brush to my son, with some Taylor cream and now he's a convert.  No more aerosols for either of us.  Wish I discovered this about 50 years ago.  And Smallflower was quick and had good prices.  Will use again.
