Not sure about the one cup or the single towel, but I have used shaving oils and as chris says they work though they can leave you feeling a bit oily. At the risk of loosing all credibility on this forum I have shopped online here and they have great products if you want to get some oils or a cut throat

If you are looking for a straight razor i have collected a few, lets just say I got fed up with the prices of replacement blades for the usual branded razor manufacturers and explored using a straight for a while. there is no better shave but the phrase no pain no gain must have been coined from this. They are used and from a bygone era but otherwise in great nick if you are interested let me know.
