The ShaveBowl

[Mr Bigmem]

Hi chaps, the other day I came across this cool lil shave bowl set up simply called ShaveBowl on instagam and followed them over to their website.

https://www.shavebowl.com/shop

The premise appears to be soaps can be stored in lower bowl and to load from, while upper bowl is used to build lather. I love the clean look and design. I wonder if the material will allow heat transfer so it can be used as a scuttle.

They state on their site. "The ShaveBowl contains two nesting bowls that work together to help you get the frothy lather you desire. Made with polymer and 40% natural clay minerals, all surfaces are covered with a micro-texture to aid in creating your lather fast."

Anyone tried this shave bowl. Or got any thoughts? My only hold back is the shipping cost and knowing i'll be stung buy the VAT and royal mails kick in the gut for admin costs.

I'm sure I've seen this before somewhere... Kickstarter???
Neat idea, not something I'd buy though..
Edit, after checking out the webby, I like the sound of the material that it is made from.... I'd be more interested in buying a nice lather bowl only on the material and without the cut outs ..

It really is a good material. Its almost like a sandstone touch
