Haven't' done the uberlather thing in awhile now. Just got to thinking about how well OBR lathers by itself, how would it do with Glycerin and a cream added? Has anyone tried this? May have to try it out this evening lol. If I do I'll report my findings, but am also curious about your results as well.

Every shave I do!
To tell you the truth I haven't uberlathered with Colleen's yet, just because after Glen did the demo at the SE Gathering I opened my soap from them. I might try it tonight and see if there is a difference.
Love the bay rum/sandlewood from them. HIGHLY recommend them.
Mine went well, wasn't quite the result I'd hoped for, first time usually isn't however. Will try again the next shave. I mixed Ogallala Bay Rum with glycerin and Kiss My Face Mint cream......called it Bay Rum with a twist. Smelled fairly good, more of mint, so I may have had my
calculations off.
The very first Uberlather I ever made was with the old formula OBR, it had great slickness, but light lather, so I was screwing around trying to get better lather from it.... John's new formula soap is a quantum laep forward in the lather dept. I use a snudle (about an almond sized amount) of the "Body Shop Shave Cream" with the OBR and 5 drops of glycerin and bam Ubersmooth.... The KMF should give good results too...
I was quite pleased with the lather from the new OBR, but I can never let well enough alone.
I think I got two or three snudles last night. Will try with a lesser amount. How much water do you use? Seemed like mine dried out rather quickly, and I wound up having to add water to it...of course, that was probably due to too much KMF.
