I tend to agree with most of the others that the VDH soap (or bigelow cream, etc) is a better choice for a beginner than Williams (which I like...
2 minutes to build lather, then about 5 to shave. If I use my valet autostrop or a shavette it takes longer. If I use an injector it takes a...

It is fairly new, but I really can't say enough good things about Proraso's new Blue aftershave balm.
