    I have a great time with her EO soaps....her FO soaps are wasted on me however since I respond to the FO's in them with a burning face.

    I have to agree with LX. Dragon's Blood burned my face like a blow torch....and the scent reminded me of a head shop from the 60ies

    that you are. i get better results using a seperate vessel for lathering no matter the soap, and mama bear's is no exception. i soak my silvertip, shake it dry, thrash about in the mama bear's container until the bristles are loaded, then put a bit of water in the lathering vessel (in my case, a redneck scuttle) and go to town! lathers quite well this way.

    I am a huge fan of dragon's blood, it's great. i also have the ylang ylang, which i honestly found a bit overwhelming, scent wise, (although it's good if you like strong floral smells) and i also have and use the smokin' soap, which i like the smell of. it smells like cigarette smoke, though, not really so much pipe tobacco and leather as advertised. to me, it smells like someone smoking a cowboy killer, but that is a smell i like, so i enjoy the soap.

    Dragons Blood especially is an irritating FO. I try hard not to sell this one, but the folks who love it er.... they would really hurt me if I took off the market. If you are in doubt.. do NOT buy this one...

    Bea Brummel is another one.. as is Lavender essential oil.... known irritants, good for the nonsensitive types only.

    Meanwhile, if you are having any issues getting lather.. this video is from a customer in Norway. God Bless Him... I plan to adopt him and leave him all my soap when I pass.....

    YouTube - Mama Bear Demonstrasjon


    It is in Norwegian, but I think that he makes it very clear what he is doing... and what he is getting from my soap..

    God Bless You All! I know I haven't been around, but life is catching back again with me and I can't WAIT to get back to normal... soon... soon.. clicks her red heels together.....

    I want to add one thing about dragon's blood.. I said it reminded me of a head shop from the sixties.. It did and I liked that so much I used it even though it irritated my skin.

    While I don't always enjoy every scent mama bear might put out, that is personnal taste and the quality of all her soaps are of the highest quality. That is why there are so many scents different strokes for different folks. I have two favorites that I use more than any other soap or cream Elements of Bamboo and Green Irish tweed. Wow really great stuff...

    I bought some a little while back and they've quickly become my favorite. So far I have:
    Dragon's Tears
    Patchouli
    Bay Rum
    Frankincense and Myrhh

    The frankincense and Myrhh is my favorite so far .. I ordered some more from her just recently as I liked them so much. Figured I should get some of the Dragon's Blood before it's gone just to try it, the Bay Rum and F&M I got are both FO and I didn't have any problems so hopefully won't with the Dragon's Blood.
