    Default Can someone recommend an unnatural soap?

    I'm looking for a brand name shaving soap with lot's of chemicals in it. The more chemicals in it the better.
    Extra preservatives are a plus.
    I'd like something that has that "Old Man" smell going for it, but I'd settle for something that SWMBO thinks smells like her Dad.
    PLEASE - nothing feminine, if I wear something that someone somewhere thinks is feminine, people will think I'm not the secure macho guy that I am.
    I'd be interested in something with Tallow, made by one of the top London Houses, but I'd prefer that it sell retail for about $1.50 a puck.

    If you know of something that would work for me, and have it - How about PIFing me some?

    Whatever it turns out to be, when you PIF it to me, make sure it's new.
    I don't want one of those super cootie diseases that thrive on the surfaces of Soap and dry metal.

    Don't worry, I'll boil the soap in bleach before it goes out.

    Thank you. I was worried for a while that if I got an old soap I'd have no way of knowing which side was top and which was bottom, so that when I used a razor blade to scrape it off, I'd have no way of knowing which side of the razor blade to use.
    I know that the 1, 2, 3 and 4 on the blades indicates the order of use.

    Can that be the next B&B LE item? "A Puck of Parebens...the only item we can GUARANTEE will last FOREVER!"

    Great! Love parabens.
    I have a brush picked out already from the Badger Farm where they shave the badgers once a year to get the hair.

    I have a stick of lard that I found next to 3 Mile Island. I mashed it up in a bowl with

    1. Parabens to preserve it
    2. 40 Mule Team Borax so it will work in hard water
    3. Tide powdered detergent so it will strip the oil off your beard
    4. Fell Naptha soap so it will lather...somewhat.
    5. Then added some nitrobenzene so it will smell like Cella

    I have it stored in old Maxwell House Coffe Can. Want it?

    Oh yeah a brush. I found this dead badger and a stick..kind of big to face lather with but what the heck :)

    I can send you a can of Edge Gel.
    It is just soap, hot water and a sharp blade. It isn't rocket science or a Zen ritual.

    I have numerous fine samples of the best Barbasol money can buy that, in my unending generosity, I will PIF to you. Or would this be a PIB? :D

    I don't use canned foam, it clogs up my electric razor.

    We have that here, exactly! It is "Monsavon" shaving soap. Moreover performances are pure b...s..t and its scent makes you think Arko is a division of Guerlain. Is it that kind of perfection you are looking for ?

    I tend to bleed heavily into my brushes so when I send you the used brush to go along with the soap I will make sure that I boil it in bleach mixed with toilet bowl cleaner just to get rid of the natural funk and replace it with a toxic chemical offgas. I will also send a special 35 step blade dryer to help you once you dissassemble the razor daily. I hope it might cut several hours off your shave routine.

    To avoid any possible negative reaction, I'll only use a blade once then toss it.
    I also throw the razor, soap and brush out daily, and just to be safe I sell the house and move.
