SvetlanaDeko shaving soaps, artisan made in Russia by Svetlana (artisan soap maker) can't wait for tomorrow's shave!! The scents are truly unique and masculine! Complex scents that are hard to describe.!! But very pleasant to my nose!! :shaver received_172705853438553.jpeg

    Nice. Please post back your thoughts after using.

    I used a fair amount of Russian creams, but never a soap nor an artisan. I think I have enjoyed most of everything I have used.

    My brother lives in Lithuania. I am thinking to ask him for bringing to me some Russian, Lithuanian Shaving equipment, especially creams.
    Could you inform and give some recommendations ?
    Which creams should i ask for?

    There is or perhaps was another artisan Russian shaving soap named Для Бритья which in Russian means simply “For Shaving.” I received a big block of this soap a number of years ago and it was actually very nice. If I remember correctly the scent was lemony with some lavender notes and it was an excellent latherer with lots of slickness as well as good postshave care. I honestly don’t know if this soap is still in production.
