Hello everyone,

Shaving soap of my own making - Madagascar vanilla and Tonka beans 

Tell us more please ?

This is a shaving soap I made myself using the hot saponification technique with the following ingredients ( I tried to use the same one as for TALBOT shaving soap and used the Soapmaking Friends to assess the proportions ) :
 - Stearic acid, Tallow beef (from the butcher - melted and filtered it myself), Shea Butter, Castor Oil, Kokum Butter, Rice Brain Oil, Lanolin, Palm Kernel Oil Flakes, Babassu Oil, Wheat Germ Oil, Jojoba Oil, Vitamine E, 5% super Fat
 - Half "Vanille des îles" and "Fèves de Tonka" fragrances coming from a French artisan parfumer in Grasse (South part of France well know for parfums)

Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe

Once again I must have to much time on my hands cuz I was perusing ETSY again and came across the Azalea City Suds site. Looked at the formula and thought it looked good and ordered some. Got the Iconoclast scent (which is really nice) and tried it this morning. Not to shabby either. Have to work on my water/soap ratio but got a pretty good lather. The brush is new with a cashmere knot and I love the cashmere knots. So a nice shave was had and ready to go. Now go enjoy your day folks.
