There are some extremely good artisan soaps on the the market but for simplicity, TOBS and TOBS. Make one Sandalwood and the other Lavender, it wouldn't matter which one is cream just make the other scent soap. Edit: I'll put in a plug for Salters SC too, hard to beat for the price, imo.
Man these are always tough........ Soap: Anything Stirling Crème: ..... uggghh! Palmolive Classic! But if you ask again tomorrow it will probably be Proraso in the Blue Tube!
I could simplify it even more - just one soap. Klar Kabinett. Been using it for several shaves now and it's an amazing soap.
I need to get hold of some Dusy in the next few weeks so I can do a compare to the Klar and hopefully stop sweating about how little I have left.
Soap: Tabac<-------I don't use it often just to savor it forever. lol ok i lied maybe i cant put it down for days once i start using it. Cream: C.O. Bigalow<------- Its the first cream i ever owned and it will be my last. Its to trust worthy to not want it in an apocalypse.
There are so many great soaps and crèmes out there it is incredible! The last brand I tried is Caties and it takes a back seat to nothing
