What should I try? Maybe try....
I know I've got hard water issues, and I have insanely dry skin .
I need some new soap (what I've got is truly terrible, and I'm having to use leftover goo, as even dry shaving manages less irritation than the puck I've got) .

No need to snurdle Proraso.
I load my brush straight from the tub.
