Thread: Soap Vs Cream

I mostly use cream, because I love the CF products.But Colleens soaps are also great.

Okay, I'm a soap guy, since I only have one soap, a Dr. Harris Arlington, which I just love. BUT, today I received a TAoS unscented cream sample (The Different Scent sent me a ton of samples, like 4-5 with my straight, very recommended vendor), which is probably good for at least two goes, so as soon as I've gotten a feel of my straight, I'm gonna try that out and post an update here and a review in the review section here if there isn't one...

I like Mama Bear's soaps in various different flavors but always give a shot of Kiss My Face unscented cream to the brush plus a couple drops of glycerin for an uberlather. The unscented cream doesn't change the scent of the soap but gives an added dimension to the lather. I have been doing this for a couple months and it is the best lather I have used so far.

Okay, my first shave with a straight didn't turn out so great because I'm an idiot, but tomorrow I'm gonna try the unscented with soap for some true uberlather, and see where it takes me... Or maybe just the cream, since I have so little of it.

Stuggi, Yes I know but actually Palmolive shave cream is really great! I can't tell you enough how good it is, the smell a bit neutral but the lather rich, creamy and shiny. And a little goes around for the whole neighbourhood
And the price..I bought 2 tubes for 39 swedish kronor..whats that less than 4 euros?

I really need to find a vendor in Finland for that, where did you get it in Sweden?

I bought it at Coop Forum..don't know if you have it in finland. But It is available in most big supermarkets and foodstores. Check if it is available otherwise I guess I could send you some if you like.

No, we don't have Coop here in Finland, but I'll check the local supermarkets, the shaving sections are currently growing quite fast (2 months ago only one store carried DE blades, now every store has Gillette Sweedes, and some of them even have some cheapo brands) ^^ Otherwise I might take you up on that offer!
