Well I found we had some old soap making supplies laying around the house. So I decided to look for a shaving cream recipe. Found one that used the items I had and gave it a go.. had to modify it some and will be trying to lather it tomorrow after it has set a little while to see what happens to it.
What scent(s) are you going for?
I currently have a lemongrass and West India sandalwood. I will be test lather them later today (after work) to see what happens with them.Quote:

mmmm, sounds good. If it turns out alright just remember that you can use SRP members as test subjects :)Quote:

I volunteer also. Anything for the cause.......
Well when I got home I checked the cream and it is more like croap ( creamy soap). Batch 1 is slick as heck but I couldn't get a decent lather.. may have added too much water to it so will try again tomorrow or the next day.
Batch 2 wouldn't lather at all so looks like that one may be a dud for shaving but will try it again in a couple days.
Hi Troggie,
Best of luck with the new creams. The sandalwood sounds interesting.
If you want an independent European opinion, I'm sure my arm could be twisted into testing some samples. :D
