I used that once and threw it away. The scent was pleasant. But it was not slick or protective. My face felt like road rash.

I used Proraso Red today. I don't typically use Proraso. I keep it around because I love the scent. But after today's shave, wow. I've settled on B&M being my go to soap because I don't think...

I know that this is a “first tier” thread but I have to share this. Today I started off the new year with a punishing and horrible shave. It reminds me of my very first and awkward straight razor...

I got the Oleo Rush St soap this week and used it about an hour ago. I'd say its good. I'm not ready to go beyond that right now. I will say that it lathered like a champ and smelled nice. But after...

I used to do the same. But I wasn't getting anything better than what I settled on. All the new ones I try leave me running back to my favorite. Because it continues to be unrewarding, once or twice...

I have been limiting myself the last few years to trying one new soap per year on average. I've taken to that mostly to dip my toe in the water to see what things are like out there. Thus far I'm not...

BB did not bother me. But like you, I can't use Trafalgar. It leaves me chemically burned. But then again, I don't like the lather anyway. Unless you are super sensitive, I think you'll be ok.

When evaluating soaps I say forget the name. Forget the packaging. Forget the price. Forget hype. And forget the scent. Focus on the lather. All of the soaps mentioned will get you a lather. But look...

I shaved with Arko again today. Totally beats the pants off of so many others at ten times the price.

There's a shiny new object.

This is a pisser. When I build a lather with a good soap, it stands up in the bowl for....well, forever. Three days later it's still there, dry by now but standing up straight.

Thats because you haven't discussed it with me. ;)

I have to agree with you here. I picked up a puck of this and it lathered great, smelled good enough. But the rinse left me thinking it wasn't so great. Not bad, but with a full inventory of soaps...

Used the same brush, same razor, but my B&M soap today. Last shave with Baume.be was disappointing. Today was magnificent. The bay rum was no bully.

I love the way B&M performs. I'm a little less enthusiastic about the scents though. Some of them are on the quirky side. And they seem to always retire their best scents IMHO. I was a fan of Roam...

My top pick is Barrister and Mann. I just finished another disappointing shave with Baume.be. Everything seems great about it until the shave is over and that Bay Rum lights me up nicely. Ive used...
