What are your current VERY BEST soaps?

...The search is over for me really....

Famous last words.

I’ll have to add that WK Siero base is really performing well. Amazing shave and post shave qualities. I just still need to get the loading right because I’m still winding up with way too much lather...this stuff literally just grows and grows and takes on a ton of water. I haven’t reached a point yet where it has broken down from over hydrating it.

This is an update from my post a year ago. I got a tub of The Body Shop Maca Root and Aloe cream last Christmas. The scent is not my favorite, but the good news is it has a mild scent witch can be mixed with something else. I have also added a drop of my favorite essential oil to it. The Body Shop cream (for me) has the best performance of any soap or cream I have tried (around 30+ as of today). It lathers almost instantly with a synthetic brush, has incredible slickness and (IMHO) the best protection and skin softeners of any soap or cream I have used. So, what about the scent issue? I use my favorite scented soaps and creams, but add a touch of Body Shop Maca Root and Aloe to the bowl. This kicks any soap or cream "up a notch" in protection and slickness. This method still gives you the scent of your primary soap or cream. If you have a lesser performing product, just add a bit of Maca Root and Aloe to make it perform top notch. Last Christmas I also received a tub of George Trumper Rose Cream, which is a great performing cream... and I love the rose scent.

Am I the ONLY one who is in love with D R Harris? They have been around since 1790, so they are doing something right. Yes, Harris is not as sexy as the hyped/overhyped artisan offerings. Some may call Harris a stick-in-the-mud without the pizazz of the new offerings that change frequently and are out of stock more often than I prefer. But Harris performance is absolutely first rate. I happen to prefer the Almond because the scent is weak and my wife has breathing problems.

While we are on the subject, Cyril Salter has the identical same first 9 ingredients as Harris. I am told it is fantastic, and have it on my to-try list. Since the Harris lasts forever, I won't get to the Salter soon.

I typically enjoy products that perform well and are readily available. With that said, my current very best are:

- zingari man sego base. Slickness and post shave are remarkable and you don’t need to trade your first born child for a tub of it. It’s always readily available for purchase.

- declaration grooming milk steak. The hype is real. Easy to use base and both performance and selection of scents are outstanding. Also readily available for purchase.

- Murphy McNeil kodiak base. Had to include this one because i love it so much. The nantahala release is done but I’m so happy to got a set. Effortless shave and outstanding value with their 5oz tub.
