    Default Ogallala Bay Rum & Sandalwood Shaving Soap

    I just purchased some Ogallala Bay Rum & Sandalwood and Ogallala Bay Rum, Sage & Cedar Shaving Soap from WestCost Shaving. I haven't seen much info on this soap here, but the reviews I have read seem positive. Any feedback from the community on this soap?

    Its on my xmass list, but I haven't tried the soap. The aftershave is fantastic however.
    The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

    Where did you get your aftershave from, and do they carry the soap? I sorta hated having this shipped from clear accross the country!

    Never purchased, but am a huge Bay Rum fan. With that said it's sold on Ebay, and Ogalla has their own website. Kearney, Nebraska is where it comes from is what I found.
    Now I might just need to order....Lord knows I don't need anymore shave soap or Aftershave LOL

    The AS lasts for hours on end. Sometimes even the next day. The soap is ok, you must really work the lather with the brush.

    I have both the shave stick and the puck.
    I find it very thirsty and it actually makes my skin a bit irritated ( I assume the sandalwood)
    Otherwise, pretty slick, a good shaving soap. I don't use it very often. The scent is really nice and stays a while.

    I find the soap has a tendency to dry out very fast on my face and needs more water than usual but the AS is lovely. I love the scent.

    I tried some of the AS at the last meet-up I attended. I think the only way to get it is to order online.

    For anyone considering purchasing Ogallala, I highly recommend going to their website and NOT eBay, Amazon...or any other site.
    The Ogallala site sends a free gift or gifts depending on how much you order. This can be anything from their inventory up to a sampler pack of 1 oz plastic bottles of all they offer (Aftershave and Cologne).

    Yes, I'm a huge fan of Ogallala AS. I love their Bay Rum (BR), BR with Lime and Peppercorn, and BR with sage and cedar. I wasn't a fan of the Sandalwood. To me, with that combination, the BR was lost...but to each his own.
