    Default Van der Lovett shave soap

    Picked these soaps up locally at Winners for $4.00 CAD each. Palm lathered the Royal Orange scented one. Lathered quickly giving a nice rich slick as snot lather. Will try it out next shave.

    Congratulations, Bob. How are the scents? Are they synthetic or more of a natural aroma?

    Sorry, you picked the wrong guy to asked that question of. With scents I either like them or do not and these two scents I do like. I also think they hit a good balance between being non existent and over powering. That is the best I can do for you in that department.

    OK, just had a very early morning shave using the Van Der Lovett shave soap. All I can say is it performed very well as the earlier palm test lather had indicated it would. Quite pleased with it and will use it more over the next few days.

    At 4 euro shipped each in Europe, I can't not try these. Thanks for the find.

    Keep in mind the pucks are 70 gram not the more usual 125 gram size.

    After using the Van Der Lovett shave soap for 4 days in a row, all I can say is it continues to provide for a nice comfortable shave. I would not be afraid to pick up another puck of it if given the opportunity.

    That’s awesome! 4 shaves in a row is pretty definitive - what a great find!
