It is a brushless cream so u can use ur hands however i always use a brush with it and have no problems, It really is great stuff Victor( and i bought mine at O U beauty in Glendale for cheaper then what u can find on the net IMO) pick some up,btw the smell can put some people off but i love it

i'm currently trying to fall in love with mwf.. but it's just not doing it for me.. ubering it with c.o. bigelow helps a bit.. but overall i don't like the mwf as much as some of the other soaps i've used.. perhaps musgo is the answer..

and also.. isn't it only $8 online? how much was oh u beauty?

Ha maybe I haven't done my research good enough then, but I payed 10 and she gave me 15% off so when u consider shipping costs it's a win win, also I too CANNOT use mwf by itself for some reason so I just stick to uber with it, u could also buy some liquid lanolin and add it like u would glycerine to ur uber for an extra lanolin kick

thanks matt..

it's strangely nice to hear i'm not alone with my mwf situation.. the thing is.. i got the puck at the same time i got pre de provence and in comparison.. the pre de provence is way more luxurious and moisturizing.. so it's partially the fault of bad timing..

i have also got the feeling that being a facelatherer is keeping me from really supermixing up the mwf and getting the lanolin to really do it's thing.. perhaps i need to bring out the gardening scuttle.

do you know where i could pick up some lanolin? is it found at cvs or rite aid or something?

I have only seen it on amazon but haven't really checked riteaid ect let me know if u find some there though

i'll begin the search.. i have had great success in the past with adding small dabs of shea butter into my soaps.. especially with my soaptopia soaps. i image lanolin will produce the same results.

Here is a "trick" to MWF although honestly I never planned it, or even thought about it until it worked out that way...

I have most all my soaps in Anchor Hocking sugar bowls...



Now for the Glycerin based soaps, I gently melt them in using a double boiler method... But for the Hard Milled soaps that doesn't work, so I shred them up using a cheese grater, then press the shavings into the sugar bowl using a Espresso press and wax paper...

This re-milling process makes the MWF and the other hard milled soaps way easier to lather with...Try it on Williams, that one will really amaze you....

thanks glen.. i have an experiment for the day.

I've heard so much about this soap, is it really that good and why?

I'd say brushless, It comes in a tube, and on the back it say's to massage into face...I'm sure either way is fine.
