Been really getting on with the Scentless Cutting Edge. I also find that since this soap doesn’t require as much work to get adequately hydrated I’ve been using it at times that I’m looking to enjoy a shave but can’t be stuck in the bathroom for endless amounts of time. Also hits all the right notes on slickness, adequate protection, residual slickness, and perfect post shave. Loving it.
Italian Barbershop v. (Le Père Lucien) orange, cinnamon
A jar of Le Père Lucien sort of seizes up if you don't use it regularly. You rub your brush all over the surface of the soap, but it doesn't pick up much, and you're left with a disappointing thin lather. To cure this malady, it helps to scoop all the soap out of the jar and give it a good kneading. Using the cold heel of my palm, I mashed my glob of Italian Barbershop all across a slab of marble I once used for making pastry dough. Then I scraped up the soap with a bread spatula, gave it a few more kneads, and repacked it. The results were excellent. The soap now loads and lathers just like it did a year ago when I bought it.
