SOTD: Soap Goddess Participation Thread 10/29 - 11/4

[RichGem]

Hi All,

I'm posting this a bit early so I don't have to deal with time zones.

Please use this thread to post what you've used for "Soap Goddess" Shave Week... a week (dates above) dedicated to our various soap goddesses, Colleen and the Sues. Use as much and as many of their products as you can and post your usage here.

Can I get an "Amen"?

And Mods, can I get a sticky?

Please do not post here if you haven't used a Sue or Colleen product in your regiment. Thank you!

Please underline or bold your goddess-related products.

The set up for me this week is:

L'Occitane verbena soap as a pre-shave
1920's brass Big Fellowish open comb razor with American Personna.
Barbasol Brushless
WWR
CWR, which I can do in Houston now that fall has finally arrived
Which hazel
SCS Lavender ASM
SCS Lavender EDT

The weather this week will be truly "Chamber of Commerce weather" here in Houston this week. The razor sure looks pretty when all polished up, but it is aggressive, as least for me. Have a good week, everyone.

Comments on the soap.

1. Great scent needs more power :D.

2. Very, Very Slick.

3. Great moisturizing.

3. Lather faded fast, only good for 1 pass, you need to start over to get a second pass so on and so on.

4. I love slick soap but if you are someone who needs cushion and not slickness, you are not going to like it.

All and all a good soap (for me), good job!

I forgot about the theme week. Will use some for the remainder of the week.


Monday:

The Progress is a nice razor but not my favorite. It has been a long time since I've used the BS cream. The EJ Super made a beautiful lather of this cream.
Overall, a nice smooth shave and I smell pretty darn nice.

Have a great week.

L'Occitane CADE aftershave balm (sample)


Been a while since I used Proraso Red. Love the stuff. Quesiton is - do I stock up before it goes away; given the plethora of product overrunning the bathroom closet. The CADE balm is nice stuff. It went on a bit heavy but absorbed in pretty quickly. It didnt feel soothing compared to my usual cooling Velva Classic blast but it left my skin in good shape.

The Little 5/8 Chandler has been calling me... it'll be the first of the 4 to hit my face. Call me crazy... I just really like simple, elegant razors - the super fancy, incredibly gorgeous ones just seem too pretty to shave with. This gorgeous little water buffalo scaled razor just seems like the perfect daily shaver. Big huge hunkin' blades look great... but nothing beats the manuverability, and the enjoyment (for me) of an truly fabulous shave, brought to you by a smaller, more elegant, light, and beautifully balanced razor.

Excuse me - it's time to shave!

[biomesh]

Hey Joel I like how you sneak in products that you can't buy yet (classic shaving - classic brand shaving cream).

[Dave-itt]

Shavette with Merkur blade;
Omega travel, pure badger;
Proraso pre;
Trumpers Violet;

couldnt be bothered using my precious proraso p&p for the up shave, so used Trumpers Coral skin food as a pre-shave, then more Violets. nice smell combined and great shave. Am shaving around a frenchy style beard - neck and upper cheeks to make a nice symmetrical week-old beard.
