Ginger's Garden Glycerin Round Shaving Soap 5.00 vs Ginger's Garden Shaving Soap Refill 4.50 whats the differance and why the price change?
The refill is cold process soap. The glycerin round is just that, a glycerin soap, which is made by melt & pour. They cost different cause they have different ingredients.
Based on the prices captianirish posted, I'm guessing he was looking at TSD Store. In the description of each of those soaps I describe the difference.
ok... would you mind telling me what that means? sorry but i am new the idea of str8 razor shaving...
They're just different soapmaking processes. Some folks prefer cold processed shave soaps. Some prefer triple-milled. And some prefer glycerin. And yet, some prefer shaving cream.
Cold process soaps use a different method then MP soaps. I guess I didn't make myself very clear...it is the same process to use; they are just made differently.
Yup, same process to use. Soak your brush in hot water, pick your soap you fancy that day. Get the brush and give it a little squeeze, want the brush fairly dry to start with. Load the brush with soap from the Puck, give it plenty ! Then whip your later up in a separate dish bowl shave mug etc. I use a heavy bottomed glass to whip my later up in so I can stand the glass in hot water to keep my lather warm. You will need to slowly add water to whip the lather up, a few drops to begin with maybe an odd drop as you go. One more thing, if your face gets cold while doing this get it hot and wet again ! Do not shave a cold face with a straight ! There are some stickys to show how to do all this around here somewhere Please ask if your unsure at all.
