Review (5/5): What a soap!
I have only used this a few times so far, but WOW so far I love it. I'm gifted with tough facial hair and skin that doesn't get along with shaving. Anyone lucky to have facial hair growing in different directions and can only shave with the grain understand this.
Strong smell which isn't unpleasant, it's a clean smell - no issues with lather but I have a water softener.
Each time I've used it I've been impressed with the ease of the shave, and the lack of razor rash. I will revisit this review based on how long the cake lasts, other reviews I've read state Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap lasts for some time so I'm curious to see how long this cake lasts me.
Other products I've used: Col Conk Bay Rum - primary shave soap since I went back to DE safety razor. Doesn't last so long but i
it's cheap and does the trick
L'Ocitane (bought from retail store) - hated it, produced tons of lather but never held up and the shave
was uncomfortable, no lubrication and very drying to the face and
I have oily skin. I would use this stuff to wash my hands, terrible as
a shaving soap for me. Some love it, didn't work for me.
