A reader recommended this soap, so I gave it a shot. It has an interesting list of ingredients:
Materials: soap, shaving, rose, coconut butter, mango butter, palm oil, jojoba oil, french clay, shea butter, coconut oil, aloe vera, coconut rum, castor oil
The rose fragrance is fairly strong, which I like, and the lather is quite good. I did my wet-brush loading and then palm-lathering, stopping this time before adding too much water. (I think that happened on Saturday.) I got tired of using the same brush every day, so I broke out the Wet Shaving Products Prince, and loved using it.
The bakelite slant with a Lab Blue blade swiftly and easily and—dare I say?—pleasurably removed the two-day stubble, leaving my face BBS. A good splash of The Shave Den Store’s Lavender Rose aftershave, and I’m ready to start another week. Some cross-cut beef shanks are already in a 200ºF oven, sitting amongst chopped onion and Roma tomatoes that were cooked briefly in olive oil, with thyme, savory, salt, pepper, and a little fish sauce. That should be ready in good time for dinner.
