I tried some liquid laundry soap for a few days.
It really dried my skin. Went back to Noxema.
OMG
NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooo
Just No
Fels-Naptha is bad as a Hand Soap let alone a soap around your face Eyes and Nose, way too harsh
You would have to REALLY really spread it thin inside a mixture to have it anywhere near safe
I am not familiar with Zote
Edit:
Fels - Naptha
The Naptha is Benzene I looked :)
I keep the stuff in the Laundry room myself, nothing works better for getting stains especially Grease and Oil outta clothes :P
Even watch that cheap sci fi flick "The Hideous Sun Demon"?
That's what he uses to shave with.
Kinda' the answers I was expecting, but hey... ya' never know 'til ya' ask!
Zote is pretty much the same thing (serves the same purpose anyway), only it's pink.
I make laundry detergent by mixing equal parts of grated soap, 20 Mule Team Borax, and Washing Soda.
Oh man I thought you were kidding! I use that stuff to intentionally dry the heck out of my skin when I get poison ivy badly, I couldn't imagine shaving with it!
To each his own but sheesh I really suggest not even trying this one just for kicks!
Yeah, we use Fels-Naptha up here in the north country for poison ivy and mosquito bites, works well for that - I would recommend not using it for shaving...HOWEVER,
whats it gonna do? :shrug: kill you? :soapbox:
report back (if you are able) with how it works if and when you give it whip
Making the whiskers stiff and brittle ain't what you want. Tc
I've got a couple cans of brake cleaner...I wonder if I could shave with that?
