Thread: Favorite summertime soaps creams??

QCS Vostok is my hands down - don't even think about it - choice when I want/need "Cool & Refreshing"

Brace yourself....

Proraso (in my case C.O. Bigelow), Cella, and for a super menthol bomb TSD Iced Subzero

Vostok gotta try it heard great things

I have two that realy are my favorit in summer (only when its hot)

1 Mama bear/bear ice
2 mama bear/ iceberg ice
The rest of the time i use the soap thats suits my mood.
Most of the time the one on the front.

Arko, great shave always, and it keeps the bugs away

It's starting to sound a little cliché, but my favourite Summer soap is still Proraso, coupled with a nice Proraso aftershave splash. Make me feel like a million bucks on a hot day

On the other hand Proraso doesn't feel so nice on a good old -30°C Canadian winter day lol

Mamma Bear Lime Ice. Although I just got some cedar wood Castle Forbes in and it's my current favorite

My favorite was proraso until I tried ogallala lime and peppercorns with matching aftershave lotion- give it a shot I can guarantee you won't be disappointed!

Mamma bears awakenings -COLD!!!
+1 on mamma bears northwoods camp.. Good stuff, has a very pine, crisp air smell.
AOS lemon- it's good stuff.

I like to mix the awakenings to any other cream or soap- it basically makes it a menthol cream or soap and it doesn't mess with the smell of the other product too much...

I like to mix awakenings and AOS lemon- you really get the best of both worlds...

Tonight I may try mixing awakening with northwoods... That may be nice..

In the summer I find myself using SMN cream more often than usual, but I tend to stick with my usual vintage Williams or vintage Colgate. Yet, when I use a soap without menthol in the summer, I nearly always use a mentholated aftershave e.g. Booster's Lime, Floid Blue, Osage Rub.
