Favorite summertime soaps creams??
Gents,
Was just wondering what your favorite or top five list of summertime soaps or creams were.. Today for the first time I tried out mamma bear mentholated lemon ice soap.. I must say it really had a great cooling effect on my skin and was quite nice.. Happy Summer!!WhiskerHarvest likes this.

I have yet to divide them in seasons, I just rotate them as to what scent I want for the day.
I really like the Cella I just got, I have MamaBear Honeysuckle, love it too.1holegrouper likes this.

I have three I have been using since the heat set in.
Al's ChillWhip w/AB, my absolute favorite for shaves in the evening after work or exercise. Nice menthol punch fades to eucalyptus and pine with some spice and florals, I love it!
Mama Bears Northwoods, A fun, conifer scent that reminds me of walks through MI pine forests.
Al's Palermo w/AB, this cream offers a pleasant shave prior to starting my day. Throughout the day the smell of the balm reactivates and I catch a green woodsy scent mixed with spice for a few hours.
Great thread!I shave because I want to, not because I have to!

+1 for Northwoods, her Bonzai scent is good too, both are very fresh and summer-esque.

Poraso green, Hands Down! AOS Lemon, mint and citrus are very cooling!

I rest my case.

Gentlemen:
I have no top five summertime soaps and creams, since I rotate 25 regardless of the seasons. The only seasonal pattern in my humble shave den is to go with the lighter aftershaves and colognes in the summer.

Savon des Volcans mint. Really a mint rather than a menthol. Light and refreshing tingle to it.

Godrej Menthol Mist, Proraso, QCS Vostok are all refreshing-I look forward to trying some of those Al's creams too!
There are many roads to sharp.

In the past Trumper's Rose worked for me as well Acqua di Parma's shave cream in a tub and Monsavon bol-a-raser.
Currently though, Martin de Candre, Palmolive stick and Castle Forbes cream work wonders in all sorts of weather.
