Thread: Mitchell's wool fat

Yes, I don't think I ever once said that it was a shave soap, only a small bar and was asking if anyone had used it as such, shaved it down, or tried to melt it, you know....They do make wonderful soap, all around. Thanks

Best way to find out is try it, I reckon. I love their shaving soap so much I'm tempted to get the whole line...fantastic product.

One reason I particularly like the MWF is for me it has little or no aroma. I throw a dab of whatever flavor cream in the lathering bowl with it and one isn't clashing with the other. When I lather with any soap I sprinkle a bit of hot water on the puck to soften it while I'm in the shower. A trick I picked up from one thread or another somewhere along the way. Seems to me to work very well with some of the harder soaps.

I bought a "bar" of this, it is OK. I like smelly creams but it is fine no probs.

I find that if you use MWF on its own, you do get sudden whiffs of the soap later in the day, mainly when you are moving around. It's quite nice. It doesn't smell of vanilla but it reminds me of it in nature, rich, sweet and clean.
