    I have only tried TSD Lanolin formula, but yes, for me it is one of the easiest face lathering soaps out there. Great for travel or a change of pace!

    12/11 SOTD

    Last shave (for now anyway) with the Merkur 41c "1904". I said earlier that I really want to like this razor. For appearance and feel I rate the razor a 10. For shave results it's only getting a 6. I just can't get a close shave with this thing; its that mild IMO. I'll let it rest awhile and rotate around to it another time. I feel sad. .

    Apparently it means "leader" in Turkish. LOL. Seriously. I checked, thinking it might mean something else. But no, pretty much what it says. :)

    Got the schick krona from my secret santa last night and I just had to give it a go today. Went well. It is a very mild razor apparently. I look forward to using I more and finding out its intricacies. [​IMG]

    Because you used EO, did you have to let the AS mature at all? I ask because some recipes call for three weeks or so of daily mixing, etc.
