Nominate a tallow critic and win a free puck of shaving soap!
I'm looking for nominations of the most discerning tallow soap users in B&B. These would be people considered outspoken with regard to tallow soap -- as evidenced by linking to threads they have started and reviews they have posted. They would have a reputation for reasonableness, able to provide constructive criticism as well as praise. Ground rules: there is no limit to the number of times someone may be nominated. You may not nominate yourself.
The most suitable nominees will be invited to test a new soap, should they graciously consent to do so.
And from the nominators, 5 will be chosen to receive a full puck of the finished product once in production.
Let the nominations begin!

I remembered reading a thread about tallow soaps being so amazing but the only quote I remembered was "face bacon." Yep, I'd have to agree fully!

I would like to nominate Foyle.
While he hasn't posted a great deal of in-depth soap reviews as stand-alone threads, I feel he might have a lot to offer here. Many of his posts relate to trying to find the right soap or cream which doesn't react with his sensitive skin, and his experiences with them. He's tried numerous tallows and non-tallows in his hunt for the "right" one, and just might be able to provide a very good assessment of your tallow base. Given that it's the unscented version, this would definitely rule out EOs and FOs as affecting the soaps performance and could possibly open the door to a "sensitive" version in the marketplace.Me likey soaps ~Sam (Curses ... Foyle'd again!)
