I want a strong menthol soap and aftershave. Would like a soap not cream and alcohol in the aftershave.
there are a lot of soap makers that offer menthol soap but some of the stronger ones are: Stirling Glacial soaps Chiseled Face Cryogen TSD Iced Sub Zero Yeti Snot Soap I have only tried Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill and Cryogen from this list but these are some of the coldest soaps on the market. You can get any scent you want with menthol or extra menthol (2x iced) from TSD. It is one of the best soaps I have tried and you would be supporting the forum as well.
Here's the TSD shop I'd personally go with Iced Subzero soap and Milk, and I'd pick up M-Bomb. But. Use the M-Bomb with caution! Only need a couple of drops, you can use it on any soap/cream and aftershave.
Shavewizard gave some mighty fine advice in being able to get any TSD with 1x or 2x menthol. I have TSD Energy in 1x menthol and it's one of my very favorite soaps (wish I would have gotten the 2x!). If you do buy a soap from TSD make sure you grab some M-Bomb as you can add it to any soap of aftershave and give it a menthol kick!
OMG, not only are the Stirling Glacial soaps frigid they lather much better now. Their skincare cannot be beaten either.
I second any of the Stirling Glacials. Good stuff. I think if you contact them, Rod will add menthol to any of their soaps that they can. For aftershaves, that's easy: Osage Rub.
yea I have a puck of Havoc (Aqua Velva type) and I only got it 1x and decided it needed more menthol so I melted it in the microwave with short bursts and added a spoonful of menthol crystals and now it is face freezing! the m-bomb is a great idea because it can be added to any product. I unfortunately forgot to order some with my last TSD purchase so I made menthol infused glycerin, that I actually used to today as a matter of fact, and the menthol- Tabac turned out great!
GOTTA go with TSD's M-Bomb menthol additive. I use 4-5 drops in my palm with my shampoo 2-3 drops in my palm with my PSO 3-4 drops in my lather bowl with any soap or cream 2-3 drops in my palm with my aftershave, be it WH or a balm Add as much or as little as you want to whatever you want.
I will add another vote for the Stirling Glacial series and for the TSD M-bomb! The Stirling Glacial Lemon is some seriously strong menthol power with an amazing scent for the summer. The other I love is the MITA also from Stirling. Milder on the menthol than their Glacial series, but still great (and you could add more menthol with the M-Bomb!). As several people noted, M-Bomb is great in just about everything and you can then dictate just how strong you want the menthol. I love putting it in with my non-mentholated soaps and cremes to give me as much or as little chill as I want. I usually do 2-4 drops depending on how much I want. I added some to my unscented WH and it was amazing as well. Have not tried it with the PSO, but I will now!
The Glacial soaps need a much longer curing time because they're so heavily-mentholated. He (Rod) also adjusted the formula slightly.
Sorry. Incorrect. While that may be true for an "as is" soap, add a few drops of M Bomb to any soap and it can be made stronger than Glacial.
Queen Charlotte Soaps has both Vostoc and Iced Key Lime soaps, cream and ASB. Very cold, the Vostoc smells like a peppermint patty. QCS is my go to for cream.
