With the Dragonsbeard V3 on it's way to me I decided to go with an Ethos soap. The wife picked out "The Kentuckian" brush for me and so Colonia was selected for the soap because...............................it matches I used an almond size scoop to my bowl and when the soap had the right water it exploded with an amazing lather that just felt so good on the face. I had way too much lather for my 3 pass shave but I prefer way more than not enough lather. After rinsing the bowl out I saw that some soap remnants were on the bottom and never even mixed as it was an excessive and unnecessary amount. I got all that lather from maybe 2/3's of the almond size scooped. I don't see how anyone wouldn't get enough lather from this soap unless their brush is eating it all. With the small amount I used I had enough lather left that I could have shaved a couple Yak's and a Sherpa. The scent was so good and still lingering from the soap and splash that I skipped picking an EDT. Have a great day Folks !

Enough left for a marmot?

I just thought while you're shaving a couple of yak's and a sherpa...you wouldn't mind a lowly marmot queuing up for some of that!   From experience, I can tell you, don't underestimate how long it's going to take to shave a yak. They are ten times worse than a water buffalo!

There is a story hear, but dare we ask?!

And a great shave with the kitchen utensil!

Edit: As for the irritation areas around the mouth, just in the last 7 days I think I have read several posts where the corners of the mouth are mentioned as a tough area, with nicks, weepers, irritation, etc. Who knew a mouth could be so irritating!!

Yeah, not really irritated but pimple kills and tougher hair in that area against the grain. Not a real problem but always state on video so people that may see something there can know in 5 minutes there is nothing to show for it.

I'd like to respond with a punchy joke about a marmot, a yak and a water buffalo walk into a bar...but, I just ain't got that today. It really boils down to the water buffalo spending much of his day in...well, water. His whiskers are well hydrated and much easier to shave. At least that's my experience. However, its been a while since I shaved a yak...so I might be off on this one!
