3 words... Van Der Hagen....

**DaveNJ74** · 10-02-2011, 06:43 PM

I'm on such a Van Der Hagen kick right now it's not even funny. I just wish the presented their soaps in wooden bowls with fancy logos and stickers but then they would cost more I guess.

**DOLLARBILL** · 10-02-2011, 06:45 PM

Can have everything and by the sounds of it your getting a good shave so that's avoid thing!

**DaveNJ74** · 10-02-2011, 06:49 PM

Yeah, its good stuff for the price.

**mmack66** · 10-02-2011, 06:49 PM

Well, you can buy the fancy VDH luxury stuff. No wooden bowls though.

**DaveNJ74** · 10-02-2011, 06:52 PM

I did see that stuff online, might try some, looks like same ingredients though.

**Charles Darwin** · 10-02-2011, 07:00 PM

I've got to try this stuff out. I keep passing it by when I visit the drug store attached to my GP's office . . .

**Dtwitch19** · 10-02-2011, 07:04 PM

I like VDH, I make a uberlather with that and CO Bigelow and get a great shave.

**Topgumby** · 10-02-2011, 10:28 PM

I get decent shaves with VDH, but prefer other soaps. It's nice to know that in a pinch, I could pick up a puck at the corner store and shave away.

**SirWhiskers** · 10-02-2011, 10:57 PM

Try Col Conk too, pretty much the same thing, just more scents.

Might be similar ingredients, but the proportions of those ingredients are different: Luxury is supposed to have more skin goodies, it's also a much bigger size puck. It also has a different (and better) scent.

VDH is an excellent soap!!

Huh?

VDH is OK, but I like Williams more.

**melyus** · 10-03-2011, 10:11 AM

All 3 types are quite nice..

that's one of the best combos ever.

**SuperChris** · 10-04-2011, 09:46 AM

I have the deluxe, select, and luxury. I like the deluxe, I love the luxury, and I haven't tried the select yet. They are great performers for the price.

**Wrangoleer** · 10-04-2011, 11:17 AM

I've used it exclusively for years. Before that, Williams and Colgate. Can't seem to find them anymore around here.

Most definitely a +1!

VDH lathers easily but that is about the only good asset of this stuff.

It is said to be cheap but with only 25 shaves in a puck, give or take a few, it is in the rather expensive category imo and absolutely not giving what other soaps in that price-range deliver.

But I have to admit; you can shave with it if you have to and it's an easy product to use when you are new in trying a brush and soap.
