    Default Minimalist Soap Stick For Vacation Travel Poll

    Select my Travel Soap Stick for my upcoming vacation in the Blue Ridge Mountains! I'm focusing on relaxation and keeping my Dopp bag to a minimum. I have already selected razor,blades, brush, aftershave, etc.... Just can't decide on which shave stick... I realize they don't take up much space but I'm letting the members choose the single one THEY would take and I will follow suit for myself and shave with it for the entire vacation.

    I would take either a QED stick or Irisch Moos. I would lean toward the QED but not by much.

    Edit: In before the poll! Of those choices, I'd use the vintage Williams or Palmolive.

    No love for Speick? It's not like it's Speicktember or anything.

    I've enjoyed it in the past indeed! Just not currently in the den.

    It's a vacation, pamper yourself. Go with the Valobra, as it's as good as just about anything out there, puck or stick.

    Arko; it has the 'cleanest' scent and neutral enough so it doesn't get boring to use it day in day out.

    i'd go for palm or arko, since they work with the water up that way.

    Just curious... what area are you headed to?

    I voted Arko because it is awesome.

    Although, all of the poll options are awesome. Well, I can't speak for TOBS or Vintage Williams as I haven't tried them, but all other options are awesome.

    I dub today, awesome day. I am going to try to use awesome as much as possible. How awesome.

    Of course it's dark, it's a suicide note.

    Another vote for Palmolive, I think the fresh soapy scent will be fitting in the great outdoors.
