Prairie Creations Shave Sticks......Yes

Description:
Price is $7.50 each - outstanding value

Quality is typical of Prairie Creations - great ingredients, great variety.

The scents are stronger than just fleeting. For some they might deem them a bit too strong, but to me they are strong enough but not overpowering. She has so many great scents available and her interpretations are always different enough from the standard, that they stand out. Kind of like a musical arrangement of a well known original, but different enough that you actually like it better than the original.

Lather - Only gave it an "8" because I had to tinker with different brushes and water ratios to get it right. Wound up getting a great lather using a best badger brush (Saville Row). Wasn't as succesful with a Silvertip. Also had to increase the water proportion just a gad, but the payoff was worth it.

Efficacy - this is where Prairie Creations shines.

Moisturizing - The essential oils do make this a bit of a strong soap but my skin feels very soft after shaving and throughout most of the day.

Forgot to add that the packaging is great. These wide containers are very attractive and the labeling as well. As opposed to a twist up soap, these containers are a "push up" set up that I thought would be difficult, but it wasn't at all. The container is most similar to Irish Moos.
