Thread: Combining Soaps & Creams

Dollop of speik ontop of my classic shaving citrus basil soap...seems to bring out subtleties of the speik I never noticed before...smells amazing!

Try just two gtts at first and see how it works but you have to get the water ratio right. Definately not a more is better thing!!

You might be right. I never try anymore, because pretty much all the stuff I have really doesn't need it, and "if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it".

Used 3 drops this morning and got a better longer lasting lather, thanks.

Here is a combination that I used this morning and was blown away by the amount of thick rich creamy lather it produced. I combined Vitos Red with The Body Shop's Mecca Root cream, 3 drops glycerin and 1 drop lanolin. I am guessing it was the Mecca Root cream that made the difference. Used on it's own it tends to explode lather but combined it goes to a whole other level. You have to try it with your favourite soap next time you make an uber lather. I am going to try it with Cella next time.
