I like Chiseled Face soap, but it always seemed just about a half notch below top tier soaps in slickness. Perhaps this one will get them there.

I just got it in the mail. Ill give a report back once I use it tonight.

THAT is what I call sssssssssssssssssslick!!!

The new Chiseled Face base is called Silk Tallow. (Edit, thanks wyze0ne)
Where the key word is lubrication. (Slick)

This is the list of ingredients. (INCI)

US: Glycerin, Potassium Stearate, Potassium Castorate, Silk Hydrolysate, Potassium Tallowate, Lanolin, Aloe barbadensis Leaf Juice, Water, Fragrance, White Kaolin Clay, Sodium Stearate, Sodium Castorate, Sodium Lactate, Allantoin, Potassium Kokumate, Sodium tallowate, Suc Ulmus Fulva Bark Extract, Sodium kokumate
UK: Glycerin, Stearic Acid, Castor Oil, Beef Tallow, Silk Hydrolysate, Potassium Hydroxide (lye), Lanolin, Aloe Vera Juice, Water, Fragrance, White Kaolin Clay, Sodium Lactate, Kukom Butter, Allantoin, Sodium Hydroxide (lye), Sugar, Slippery Elm Bark Extract
(orders in the two ingredients lists are slightly different due to the requirement of INCI ingredients to show whether an oil has been saponified with sodium or potassium hydroxide)

This high lubrication is obtained with:
• Glycerin in first position
• Aloe Barbadensis, more than water
• White Kaolin (Clay) in high position

To improve it all, a nice handful of Silk Proteins and Lanolin.
Allantoin benefits the inflamed skin.
The North American Red Elm supports the previous one, and adds astringent and healing functions.

At the moment, there're three scents:

• Ghost Town Barber
  Bergamot, Basil Leaf, White Patchouli, Oakmoss, Texas Cedar, Leather, Smoke, Gunpowder
  
• Midnight Stag
  Russian Leather, Motor Oil, Hoppes #9, Birch Tar, Oakmoss, Gasoline, Smoke, Cedar, Cade, Bergamot, Vanilla
  
• Sherlock
  Warm Tobacco, Toasted Caramel, Black Pepper, Moist Dirt, Leather, Moss, Mandarin, Honey, Rose
  

This soap was great!  Performed top of the class in all areas. I think next time I will add even more water and the slickness will be even better.

I had some of the original base GTB and I was really "hexed" by its almost narcotizing scent. A shave buddy talked me out of it as he too was mesmerized by the scent. Nothing quite like it to be frank. 

Thanks for the photos and mini-review. Perhaps you would be so kind as to post more photos as well. I would like to see a photo of the open tub when dry, please.

Yeah GTB has a very unique scent, only soap that I can think of that's similar would be Noble Otters Plunder which I actually like more but it's a very loose comparison on the scent

As you can see, the differences are many between the new Silk Tallow base and the previous Tallow base by Chiseled Face.
It's not just a percentage change in Glycerin and Silk Powder.
The wording has totally changed.
With the addition of lubricating and decongestant components.
As well as Lanoline, and the replacement with a more prized type of Aloe.
So I'm not too sorry about the loss of noble fats like Mango and Avocado.
Maybe I would have preferred the fragrance a little higher, since in the new version it seems quite less full-bodied.
Also the increase in complexity and therefore time as well as the cost of the components, I believe is correctly expressed in the +20% price.

FWIW, it's called Silk Tallow, not Slick Tallow regardless of how slick it might be .

To me, GTB smells like Maggard London Barbershop with some smoke/gunpowder added to it. I'm definitely going to pick up one of these scents in the near future. I know Ron worked really hard on developing this new base and I'm curious to try it.

A clear mistake ... Freudian.

I’m really excited about this. I’ve always been a fan of Chiseled Face scents, but found the soap to be a little lacking when compared to others on the market. Can’t wait for reviews and to try!
