    This is for anyone else who has a Wet The Face soap. Mine came only 1/2 full. I wonder if half the soap melted in the heat. The "bottom half" appears good and cold. As I said yesterday, I'll give it another 30 minutes in the fridge today, as I'll have it for tomorrow's shave. Anyone else get their WYF only 1/2 full?

    Did you weigh the soap container. The soap container without the cover is between 25 -30 grams. According to their labels they should be 4oz of soap which would translate to approximately 115 grams. So if you rub weighs around 150 grams without the cover then you received the correct amount.

    Very nice shave, setup, pic and combo. Proraso Green is an excellent soap. The menthol is on the light side for me, but it still is refreshing. It's a soap that I can use all year round. Have a great afternoon Hogie.

    Feather blade.

    Azalea City Suds After Dark shave soap sample.
    Timeless Razor shave bowl.
    Royal Copenhagen cologne.

    I tried the After Dark scent from Azeal City Suds today.

    The scent profile:

    After Dark:
    Black Licorice - Orange - Leather - Tobacco - Clove - Anise - Coriander - Lilly - Jasmine - Amber - Musk

    I'm still undecided if I like the scent on this one. Azeal City Suds soap does a good job but I need to spend more time with it. It seems to have an airy/foamy quality to it and my face feels dry after using it. It is not a bad soap but I don't know if it is where it needs to be.

    Ingredients are listed as:

    Materials

    Beef Tallow, Goats Milk, Dual Lye

    Overall, the three passes were nice.

    It is Friday and I hope everyone has a great day.

    I'll try that but I don't have a scale here. Your explanation makes sense.
