Hi guys,
Today I "test-drived" the Razorock XXX Cream soap. Which I strongly recommend, it smells fantastic, kinda like old school stuff, the lather is very easy to produce, only a couple of turns with the brush and it suddenly explodes and with a great consistency enough for two or three passes (face lathering). Today I did 2 WTG passes, which works out very well for me. Also the price is very attractive!
In a nutshell, if you haven't tried it, you better!
Good stuff. All of Razorock products are very good.
It is a nice soap. If you like it, you should stock up, as it was discontinued recently.
Ok, thanks for the info, I'll keep it in mind. When was it discontinued?
Glad I just ordered mine, as its very highly spoken of and I don't want to miss out.Quote:

I was worried about doing without my beloved XXX, so I hit up SRD Sunday for 3 plus some more Fresco, some classic(Smells wonderful!) and a go at Poraso.
It is Wednesday and the pile is here! Well-packaged and documented! GREAT SERVICE!
Thanks Lynn and Don!

I wanted to love the stuff - but it kind of burns me when I use it. I don't know how to describe it really. Maybe i'll pull it out of the bck of the stockpile tomorrow and give it another go.
The possibility of stocking up on XXX makes me wonder, how long with soaps/creams keep and is there a recommended procedure for long-term storage?
I am going with the fridge!
Before I ordered several tubs to store, Joe told me 3-4 yrs, maybe longer. Does anyone have experience with storing croaps in the freezer or fridge? How do they turn out once defrosted?Quote:

I am new to straight razor shaving and I was using a cheap shaving cream soap that took about 5 minutes and still didnt build a good lather. I purchased the Razorok Cocao and all I have to say is WOW! Had a thick smooth lather in about 30 seconds from a hand lather. In conjunction with this amazing soap I also used proraso pre-shave cream, razorock alum stick, and captains choice bay rum aftershave. The end result was amazing. I am definitely a fan of razorock after my first shave with their products.
Is it just the XXX that is being discontinued?
