12 soap, 12 day, roulette.

Sorry, don't have a pic.

I created a new 12 soap rotation, and decided I wanted it to be random each day. I wrote each soap on a little card and placed it into a leather bag.

The excitement begins tomorrow. Does anybody else want to do this and report back each day?

my selection:

Monsavon
Pre De Provence
Omega
TGQ Toasted Almond
TGQ Blackberry Sage
TGQ Highlander
Soap Opera Olive Oil
Soap Opera Blackberry
Soap Opera Green Tea
C&E Nomad
P.160
Mitchell's Wool Fat

If this turns out anything like chatroulette, i don't wanna see the SOTD's

Joking aside, that sounds like a fun idea. Do you plan on using each soap once and removing the card from the bag altogether?

I debated this, but I figured some cards might be more likely to be pulled due to differences in shape. I'll probably pull them permanently as I use.

I reckon i'll give it a go too

The Contenders:

• Arko
• UK Palmolive
• Wilkinson Stick
• Speick
• Tabac
• La Toja
• AU Palmolive
• LEA stick
• Derby Lemon
• Metal tube Erasmic
• Brazilian Brut Cream
• Indian Shulton OS

I think i'll use empty blade wrappers for my cards, i probably have enough beside/under/behind the sink

The cards are a good idea. Much better than just throwing the soaps in a bag.

That sounds like fun, I'm in!

Wow, just made it, I own exactly 12 soaps...

Day One:

• Arko
• UK Palmolive
• Wilkinson Stick
• Speick
• Tabac
• La Toja
• AU Palmolive
• Metal tube Erasmic
• Brazilian Brut Cream
• Indian Shulton OS

Ugghh... a non-tallow... what a way to start the game...
A little extra elbow grease goes a long way with this stuff though

Palm, Fuller Boar, Sheraton, Silver Blue, Pacrush

I'm pretty sure i can use this same blade for the whole game

Sounds good - I'm in

I don't have 12 soaps but will put all of mine in the bag along with my creams to make it close:

Tabac
Irisch Moos
Valobra Shave Stick
Provence Sante
Cade
Castle Forbes Lime
Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet - hopefully it's waiting for me in the mail today.
CO Bigelow

Okay, day 1. And the winner is:

The Soap Opera of Madison --Olive Oil! FWIW, I don't think there's anything olive oil-ey about this soap. It lathers like a machine, and it smells just like Pre de Provence. Shaves like a million bucks too.

I used:

Merkur LH Classic, Asco blade -->one stroke and I decided the blade is terrible.
Merkur Sledgehammer, feather blade-->ahh, that's better.
TBS Synthetic
L'Occitane Cade Splash, so amazing. R.I.P

Day two:

• Arko
• UK Palmolive
• Wilkinson Stick
• Speick
• Tabac
• La Toja
• AU Palmolive
• Metal tube Erasmic
• Brazilian Brut Cream
• Indian Shulton OS

OS cream, EBaydger, Sheraton, Silver Blue, Shulton OS

And todays winner was Valobra... or was it me Very nice shave stick and a great way to start the roulette!

Friday:

Valobra SS
Shavemac 21mm Finest
Le Grelot 6/8 quarter grind
Dominica Bay Rum AS
L'Occitane ASB

So how was the Indian Shulton OS????

I think you should have a wheel and spin it every day to find out what you're going to use!

How are you guys doing the "strikethrough" on your font? I tried to copy and paste from word. It didn't work.

BTW, Day 2 ----> P.160

This stuff is fantastic, I wonder why I don't use it more.

Thanks! Bummer about the lather, but shultony goodness is always hard to pass up...

I'm doing it with the wrap code, but there may be a better way?

so it looks like this:

these words
is "["strike"]" these words "["/strike"]" without the quotes.
