    Default Strange mixture

    I added a little bit to much water to my mixing with the CO Bigelow cream. And there staring at me was my stand by VDH soap, looking at me... I was debating on adding more cream to the already watery lather, but said that might be a waste... I started mixing the VDH with the Bigelow.. didn't smell that bad... The lather was thick, but went on fine and shaved good

    Might make this into part of my arsenal .

    I have discovered *read more threads* Super Lather and the heavens opened wide and angelic trumpets play..

    Gotta love the super lather!

    Try mixing that Bigelow cream with Tabac or any kind of bay rum soap (ogallala if you have some) - amazing stuff with an amazing smell!

    Many have also often suggested that L'Occitane Cade Shave cream goes good with most soaps for a good super lather. I once was a fan of the super lather but found once I mastered my lathering techniques with soap I rarely need such a thing. However, once in a while it is fun to mix/match for scent and effect.
