What soap/cream did you use today?

SV Opuntia Beta 4.3

Olympus Shaving Cream by Wet Shaving Products. Super slick, rich lather

Portus Cale

Oud Neroli v. (Le Père Lucien) ★★★★☆ oud, neroli, musk, cardamom

LPL's new soaps, Vetiver and Oud Neroli, are a great improvement over their old formula. I say 'old formula' but in fact I'm not sure what exactly has changed. The list of ingredients is nearly identical to the older soaps. Like LPL's Abricot and Oud-Santal, these new offerings contain Shea butter, but this time it's blended in much more smoothly than before. This results in a far superior shave. Today's lather came together without any effort. It was as soft and solid as whipped cream, and every bit of soap in my scuttle dissolved into the emulsion, producing a thick cushiony pile suds that lasted without any dissipation right through three passes.

The scent, however, isn't my favorite. But if you're a fan of Right Guard in the aerosol can, you might have a hard time keeping your nose out of this puck.
