I don’t think I even made it to the bowl with the brush and the scent hit me, my brush just exploded with lather,

I think the lather was growing on its own.

This is the first shave I have ever had where I did not feel the need for a post shave balm.

My face was both well moisturized and comfortable post shave.

If you have not tried the SRD soaps gents it is well worth the effort.

You can smell each one through the package, it is hard to pick a favorite, and the performance is top notch."

i can attest to that, while i loaded the chip in my palm, i also used the residue soap on my hands as a preshave and massaged it well. didnt know if it made a difference but the shave was fantastic. as for the scent, that is something to consider if one has sensitive nose/skin, but that is exactly why SRD also provides an unscented container. i think this stuff is magic.

I've got the SRD Opus X and it performs like a champ! I'll likely pick up some other scents from them as well.

Also, doesn't take allot of trial and error to find the right ratio. Works well with my hard water.

That is actually the kind of thing I'm looking for. To be honest, I really like my lather to be over the top with the scent as well as the lather. Part of the relaxation I get from shaving is having that warm, rich lather that smells so good, on my face. I will definitely need to get some

That's actually good to hear because I have pretty hard water myself. It's never been a problem usually but I always hear that some soaps are sensitive to that.

Kell's Original

I'm also a big fan of Van Der Hagen Deluxe, which is available at most grocery stores and pharmacies. It's a good glycerin and shea butter based soap and it costs less than $2.

The Kell's look really nice. Some hemp soaps I see. nice nice. I might have to order a puck thanks man.
