SOTD 22MAY18
Razor: Charcoal Goods Lvl 2 SB | Florian Cross
Blade: Wizamet Super Iridium (3)
Brush: Dogwood | Declaration 'B5'
Soap: River Valley Trading 'Frosty Bay Rum'

I made a trade with Mohamed to obtain this and four other soaps. This is my first go with his soap base and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it performed. The lather buildup was super easy while slowly adding water, it's not an overly thirsty soap but appears to be able to handle a good amount of water (experiementation setup for a later shave). This soap is extremely slick with great residual slickness. The lather was thick for a vegan soap and I found my CG razor struggling to get through it to the bare skin (awesome). The soap is very protective and the post-shave is good; my face feels nice and soft, there is no irritation. These soaps are very cheap but there is a challenge for Mohamed in getting them shipped overseas (I'm in Italy and it took almost 3 months for them to arrive after being stuck in customs for over a month). If Mohamad gets logistics figured out or finds a Stateside vendor to carry them I would highly recommend them. Another note, this soap has a very nice bay rum (spicy), clove, and cinnamon scent with added menthol; the face feel from the menthol was very nice, not too cold. However, my neck had a nice red ring on it where the soap had made contact; my face experienced no burning nor did my neck for that matter but it was red so I will reluctantly have to move it on. I look forward to trying out the other soaps as I am very pleased with the performance.
