Gd Donkey base. I use Asinus
GD duck fat base. I use Pekin
GD beef tallow base. I use Tacit. I’ve yet to try the Janus tallow that should have some additional slickness.
DG milksteak. I use unscented. Need more time with this base but it is a winner

I've probably already responded to this thread, but I'm gonna have to add Ballenclaugh to the list. An excellent, excellent soap base that is not widely available unfortunately. I had a killer shave with it this morning. It produces some of the densest, shiniest, and slickest lathers I've ever used. Quite impressive IMO.

my updated top 3 now are:
Barrister & Mann (excelsior)
Wholly Kaw (siero base is superb)
Declaration Grooming (Milksteak)
I loved Grooming Department and actually bought 5 diff soaps, diff bases (even unscented) but all gave me a very severe allergic reaction on my face (thus why I bought unscented to try as well, but to no avail). So I cant personally list GD due to my intense reaction.
My other daily workhorse is Ariana and Evans (The club), although now the new soap bases listed above offer better performance.

Was just strolling though a store and saw a 400ml can of Noxzema foam for about $2.
Its been years since I did canned for and for $2 I couldn't resist.
Had a menthol and camphor smell....very nice, slick and protective.
Smelled a bit like proraso green, minus the eucalyptus.
I appreciated not having to whip out a brush and then have to clean it.
I see a couple more cans in my future before I get bored of this.
