Thread: Favorite Lime Soap

I've never used a mama bear, but I've heard some good things. How would you compare it to SRD's glycerin soaps?

KingOscar,

+1 on the Castle Forbes Lime

Great soap, but unfortunately it's a bit scalpingly priced

Have fun !

Best regards

Russ

i have yet to try srd soaps.. however.. all mama bears soaps i have tried were great.. and i'm sure there was an orange type scent.. not sure about a lime though.

Mama Bear carries several soaps with lime: Lime Ice (lime and menthol); Ginger Lime (ginger and lime); Basil Lime; Lime Glycerin (straight lime); at least one more.

Queen Charlotte Lime is also excellent. There are a couple reviews in the wiki if you're interested.

Queen Charlotte classifies their product as a cream-soap. It's a little softer than a hard soap, and more dense than a regular cream.

Anyway...I love it.

i just make my own shaving soap unscented and add about 2 drops of an essential oil such as lime essential oil and whip it up!! its great because i can use one scent one day and a different one the next. lime essential oil is very very good! the cheapest place for essential oils is iherb.com. very good quality and excellent prices!

I too hae been on the lookout for a good lime soap to uber with my castle forbes lime and trumpers limes creams. I have read and heard that QED limes soap is excellent , the scent is true lime and the EO is top notch,I will be ordering from them shortly. I also have and used srd soaps and IMO are leaps and bounds better than Mama bears soap but again its just my preference , and I have not tried the "lime" srd version.

I like the eShave Lime Verbena.
Great scent and brings a magnificent Lather

Thanks for the input. Is it the quality of the scent, the lather, or some other feature of the SRD you prefer over mama bears? I have both but have yet to do a side by side comparison as I've mainly used them both in uberlather.

I have Queen Charlotte Key Lime and its really great, awsome scent and with a peanut size of that soap you have enouygh lather for 3 pass+. But it's a hard cream or soft soap.
