The EarthPure Shaving soap is without a doubt the worst one I tried so far, You get no lather what so ever.. Nada... Siltch.. Nope.. Utterly and totally useless.. The scent is very nice though.. But the soap is, as a shaving soap, total Crap!! I tried different techniques and brushes.. No good - still crap..

Finally I restorted to the Arko Cream to salvage my not that good shave..
Oh Well - there is always tomorrow..

Sunday:

Now that we're back in business, here's what I shaved with yesterday:

Omega brush
Parker 22R/new Sharp
Muhle-Pinsel aloe vera shaving soap
Anherb a/shave conditioner

a complete change in the Muhle-Pinsel soaps--this new formulation lathers beautifully, and works great. The skincare is still as good as ever.

 

GEM Micromatic

Olive Oil Soap wash
Proraso pre
Haslinger SS
GEM Micromatic
Home Depot box cutter blade (day 1)
Chubby 2

Aqua Velva Musk AS

First shave with the GEM...WOW, very different! they say it's the closest thing to a straight razor and they're right. I'll have to try it a few more times. No cuts or weepers, and that's always considered a successful shave.

 

.....this looks interesting.
Tell us more, pls
