What soap/cream did you use today?

Tim’s made quite a splash in the community a few years back.  His Ghost Face Nilla and Greek Peach were all the rage.  But alas, as often happens, life situations change and doors are closed, and a new soaper appears to take his place.  I currently have two Tim’s Soaps remaining.  Greek Peach, which to my nose is the best peach soap ever made, and Breakfast of Champions, a riotous mix of tobacco, bourbon, and chocolate which by any measure is decidedly NOT a breakfast for a champion but the scent is heavenly to me.  Tim’s is a veg soap, pre-super fat, mix.  It wants to start foamy but keep loading and working and it settles right down into some creamy goodness.  Post shave is a tad tight but for those that know me....who cares about that?  I’m going to add a dab of raw Shea butter anyway to keep my dashing good looks.  Tim’s, I miss you and always wish I’d have picked up a tub of Ruby Red.

SPEARHEAD SHAVING (Experimental) Lavender Vanilla

Despite the website description, I find this quite spa-like. It's sweet, but not 'dessert sweet'. It's a lighter scent, which dosen't offend. I can definitely detect the vanilla. When everything is mixed together I absolutely think spa / lotion / soothing scent. Not a manly scent, moreso unisex.

The soap is a soft consistency, somewhere in the realm of a soap croap. It whipped up a lather shockingly fast. The lather was low-structure, with the yogurt like consistency. Very nice.

The soap was slick enough, and I never felt dryness or irritation. I did find it was low on the residual slickness. This could absolutely be due to how I made the lather, so take that with a grain of salt for now.

I would obviously need to work with it longer to say anything equivocally. Still it was good, doubly so considering the price ($10!). I also give it to Spearhead for the quick shipping. It shipped the same day I ordered and I had it 3 days later. Kudos, folk(s).

Great report on a product I haven’t seen before.

Thanks Lipripper660 ! I can't take all the credit, I happened upon it at The Shave Cadre. With my current selection it probably won't get the fair shake it deserves, but hopefully I'll eventually dial it in and find more residual. If I read Spearhead website correctly, it's a limited release.

Also just got an email from them this morning. They are re-releasing something called Seaforth (soap and AS from the 40s) in the Fall.

Truefitt & Hill West Indian Limes. Superb performance. The scent is okay. I noticed the cream has parabens. I try to avoid them but what the hey, it's a great cream.
