Any tip for using this with shaving cream and KMF shave lotion. The ring on the bottom don't let me built the lather I mix on it and built on my hand.

I have been wet shaving for over 40 years..This in my opinion has yet to be the best shaving mug yet...I lather up the brush & use a small shaving bowl to make a cream lather~If you are not sure how too wet shave..I suggest you do a search on the internet...Note the best DE Razor I use is Edin Jagger 89seems to be just the right weight..My best advice is to get a sample pack of DE Blades..see what works for your beard..There is no best blade...What works for me my not work for you....For the money you can not go wrong with this shaving mug~~~~

Can this mug fit the refill for the Taylor of Old Bond Street? The TOBS refill pucks are 3.5 ounces, and some other brand refills are half that.

You can refill it with any shaving soap that you would like to use....when I do a refill ..I push the puck in to the mug & add a pinch of water..Then place in microwave for about 1 minute...That will help reform to the mug...let get cold..you are now ready to use your new shaving soap....Hope this helps you out

Is this plastic or rubber? Recent reviews seem to imply cheap plastic

It is Not Plastic>>I repete It is Not Plastic..It is a Hard Rubber it will flex a tad but will not break id you drop it on the floor..First to do when you buy oneis to put a dab of water just to wet the bottom of the mug..place the shaving soap in mug..put in micro wave for 45 seconds to 1 minute..this will cause the shaving soap to conform to the shaving mug...I my self do a two part shaving with this mug...Get the shaving brush wet with hot water..next run it around on the shaving soap to gather up some soap ..then I use a small bowl to make my lather in..swirling it around in the small bowl but you must also pump the brush up & down as you swirl the brush..this mixes in air to make a creamy lather....(It is like whipping butter)..with your face you apply a hot wash cloth to soften your beard while making your lather..for about 1 minute..next you want too apply Noxema to the face..this will keep the beard soft..apply the shaving lather over the Noxzema and you are ready to shave...I my self use a DE Razor(Edwin Jagger think EL98 & DE Feather Blades..My opinion this is the best you can have.....Hope this Helps And yes the shaving Mug this the best investment you can make....

What is the diameter of the bottom? Have purchased far too many soap dishes that won't hold any but the smallest of shaving soaps.

Hi Michael. I bought the Taconic Shave 4oz shaving soap with eucalyptus and hemp seed oil. Fits perfectly in the bottom and is ridged to hold the soap in place. It looks like an oddly shaped coffee mug in that the base and mouth are far too wide for such a purpose. I sort of gambled on the thing, as I had no idea if the soap would fit.
