Shaving Cream/Soap

[MongGrel]

Recently picked up a DE razor to try out and love it, anyone have things they like to use on a general basis.

The Sandalwood seems to be the go to from popularity, but were looking at a few to try out.

Looks like fun! It's alright to treat yourself. I recommend a wooden box to keep it all in that plays the theme from "The Good, the Bad and, the Ugly."

If you are looking at sensitive skin formula, I'd skip the other two. I have sensitive skin and tried the Sandlewood and didn't care for it. I'm partial to the lime scent. Otherwise, I like the Taylor creams. They are a good bang for the buck. I've tried more expensive brands and while some were better, they were not $10 per tub better.

I have also more recently tried some shaving soap. Mitchell's Wool fat worked pretty well, though it's a bit difficult to get a good lather.

And I also liked Institute Karite. Got both of those at west coast shaving.

I've been using Williams Soap for years. I like it.

And thanks for the responses, I'll have to take a look at the others too.

The Williams looks it will be on the list

I really don't need the sensitive skin one, but it just looked like it was getting good reviews also.

I use bar soap. In the shower. With a fog free mirror that fogs up.

You gotta run it under the hot water for a few seconds.


As for me: Have not tried the fancy ass flake soaps. I use Everyman Jack and its great. Smooth skin, just moist enough to get thru the day, no razor burn. Good shit.
