Review on The Art of Shaving Pre Shave Beard Oil - Men's Shaving Oil, 🪒 Guards from Irritation & Razor Burn, Clinically Proven Gentle on Skin, Fragrance-Free, 2 Ounce by Sharon Smith

I'm starting to think I really don't need preshave oil as I've been using it for a few years now. I started lathering my shaving cream directly onto my face and don't notice any increased difficulty or "pain" when not using oil, which tends to form a sticky residue on my sink anyway. Its best function is probably to retain moisture in your stubble when you shave after washing your face. This is not necessary after a hot shower. Although I don't have a very stiff beard. Just average I would say.
