I'd been hearing great things about Soap Commander from Chris Bailey on youtube, and I wanted to try it so I placed an order for a tub of Inspiration Shaving Soap, and a bath bar of the same. The order was shipped promptly and arrived today. 

Included with the order is a handwritten thank you card signed by Carrie. What a great touch. I don't know Carrie or her husband, and this is my first order, and I'm impressed by that touch of customer care. Also included is a sample moisturizer. 

I shaved when I got back from the gym and Bailey is right. This is wonderful soap. Great scent which is strong but not cloying. It's easy to lather. And it provided a dense cushion of slick protection that helped my Feather Artist Club slide across my face, mowing the whiskers without hacking the skin. Great post-face feel too, amplified by a splash of Osage Rub.

UPDATE: Picked up the Respect balm today at Pasteur. Smells wonderful. Can't wait to try it tonight.

UPDATE: I'm now obsessed with Soap Commander. From Maggard's I got a tub of the Love Shaving Soap, which is their substitute for Klar Kabinett, which I never used. I've used other rose-scented soaps but this rocks. The shave is outrageously good. The scent is magnificent. I followed it with the Love Aftershave Balm, also from Maggard's. I came up smelling, literally, like a rose. My face felt great.

And the balms!!!!!!!! The scents are magnificent. The performance second to none. I'm not shilling for them, I don't know them, but I would be glad to shill for them, they are just that good. And, best of all, they reek of integrity. They are my new favorite artisan soap and balm maker. I still have lots of love for Stirling and Reef Point and Ginger's Garden, etc. But my shaving heart belongs to the Sieberts.

Soap Commander makes excellent products and they are great people do deal with, if you have any questions they waste absolutely no time responding. If your into balms you should give their's a go, it's moisturizing and it feels great on the face with the touch of menthol in all of their balms. Great products, great people and a great company.

It's no coincidence that the best artisan vegan shave soap is made by the best people. Glad you enjoyed your first shave with it.

Thanks for the tip. Will definitely order some balm. It's so nice to know that a great product is made by great folks!

Yes, and am trying to move toward only vegan soaps. Will be delighted to patronize Soap Commander. My wife loved the bath bar, and she uses only vegan products.

Absolutely superb products from Soap Commander, and Darren and Carrie Seibert are two of the most genuine, down to earth people you could ever wish to meet. An extremely talented couple but also very humble and grateful for the business people put their way.

Last I checked, because I'm in Canada I can't order directly from their site. I need to check if this is still the case b/c they sound like wonderful people to deal with and Soap Commander is in the #1 spot in my den! A truly great product.

Their products are great and I'd say they are among the best if not the best in customer service. I am always happy purchasing SC products.

Send them an email keller. I know they have shipped internationally before. Their site just might not be set up for it but I know they can do it.

Darren and Carrie are very active on Facebook. They seem to be very positive people and willing to educate on software. I haven't spoken with them too much, but I'm hoping we can both make a meet-up in Memphis. They don't live too far from me as is.
