I have some Olivia's bay rum shaving cream that has been used 4 times. Would anyone want to swap one of colleen's creams (or maybe soaps) for this?

Did you really pay $30 for the soap? I found a French site selling if for 9 euros: http://fr1.loccitane.com/product/pro...duct=20SB003LHQuote:

That is the refill. I believe I paid $12 for my refill. The $30 soap comes in a metal container.

That explains it. I had a look at their bowl and wondered whether it isn't too shallow to whip a lather. Or is one supposed to put the soap in a mug? I would prefer a bowl and mug in one! That's how I used to buy my soaps before I started using creams.
The soap does come to the top of the bowl.

Interesting. Maybe I should give the soap a try. I was, to say the least, underwhelmed by their creams. And the price is very dear, when I could have a top quality cream for the same money.
I would definitely give it a try. I've been using it all week and it is very good. Buy the REFILL though for $12 and just drop it in a mug or better yet one of those plastic ziplock containers (they're excellent for storing soaps). You can lather right up in the container. Hope this helps.Quote:

I saw both in a shop yesterday and decided to buy a tube of the cream at £14, the refill pucks of soap were £7.50 - I'm thinking I should have gone for the soap instead but I own very few creams so I fancied a change. Maybe i'll buy the soap when I've used the cream up.
I have never used the cream but it has gotten a lot of bad reviews here and at the other sites (SMF, B&B). The soap had been mentioned highly so I gave it a chance. I'm happy I did as it works very well for me. It is the most moisturizing thing I've used amongst creams and soaps. And of course the shave is smooth. Hope that helps.

It's funny you say that but I used the cream last night and again this morning, and I wasn't overly impressed with it other than the nice fragrance. I suspect I was making the lather a little too dry, either that or it just doesn't work for me.
I'll pick up a refill puck of the soap in the week, as I should have done in the first place!
