+1 to the Mama Bear's recommendation. I picked up a couple pucks from her website and it made my shave a lot better, plus the fragrance is just incredible. Lather lasts a long time, and the price more than fair for a sizable 4oz. puck that seems it will last for at least a few months shaving daily.

Tons of good soaps and creams out there though, you just have to find something you get along with well I went with Mama Bear's because I saw so many people swearing by it here and I wanted to be able to melt my soap into a small dish without messing it up.
