Soaps and Creams $10 and under?

**LinacMan** · 02-01-2011, 10:05 PM

All three of the Crabtree & Evelyn shaving soaps are less than $10: Nomad and Sandalwood are $9/puck and Sienna is $8/puck.

They are all great products. I've used Sienna for the past 4-5 years. Before that I used their almond oil unscented soap for years, which unfortunately they no longer make.

Proraxo/CO Bigelow are both great. If you like menthol, try Godrej Menthol Mist for an icy face freeze that puts Proraso to shame, and for a ridiculous price. Arko Commando is good, too.

LinacMan-I like your Gierach quotes; I lay that first one on people all the time!

Another vote for Proraso, one of the best cheap (as in under $10) out there IMO.

Two of my all-time favorites that are not mentioned thusfar are Omega and Speick. Omega is promoted as a soap, but is about halfway between a soap and a cream. Speick comes in a shave stick, but milled into a bowl -- the only way I use it -- is perhaps my favorite of all, about $5.

C & E soaps are for me a notch below, but can be had during one of their frequent sales for $5 or less. Superior scents, though.

True.. I forgot about Speick. I do love the cream, it's great stuff but I can't remember how much I paid for it. I guess it doesn't matter, I'm sure if it's over $10 it's not by much.

Proraso gets my vote...easy to lather up, nice tingly feeling, and you can get it almost anywhere!

IIRC Omega soaps and creams are made by Proraso.

cherokee,

And there you have it: a wealth of options for cheap.

I would have to vote the real shaving company soap as my number one soap to use...it comes at a very cheap price of $4.99 cdn at any shoppers drug mart in canada. They also carry the proraso for $8.99 which comes second on my list. For anyone out there looking for a crazy rich and creamy lather i recommend trying the real shaving company soap.....it will give you a lather like you have never seen, more than happy with a price under $5.00 too
