Good Morning & TGIt'sFriday !

Semogue Owners Club \\ EJ BChrome w/ Red IP (UK) \\ Proraso Crema Pre E Dopo Barba \\ Haslinger Coconut SS \\ Al Raz's ASB Custom "El Tangerino"

This Haslinger soap is no joke. The lather is just out of this world silky and meringuey. Very thick and protective after loading the brush for less than 15 sec with a semi-wet soaked brush. I really do recommend this soap to all members here on B&B. It lathers just as easy as DRH Arlington, ARKO, Razorock or any other SS you enjoy. I replaced my metal bowl that had ARKO with Haslinger and this is the Tallow version. Well Friends, You all have an Excellent Day/Weekend!

P.S. - Its nice to see themed weeks back b/c I'll get more products which lay around and dont get much use!

Do I really need yet another soap, Balaji?? You aren't doing me any favours, prompting another purchase you know!

Sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, I didn't need it but after seeing a lather demo vid of this stuff, it hurt not to buy it lol! BTW, whenever you use a fresh blade, can they sometimes be a dud? I know for sure the SS isnt the problem b/c you would a get a rash or your skin would be red reacting to it.

Balaji, are all the soaps tallow or is there a mix within the scents?

I think there is a mixup within the scents b/c some are veggie but majority is tallow I believe. The coconut I bought is tallow.

Just checked on the Shavemac site, and looking at the ingredients for all the scents, I get the impression that the coconut soap is the only one with tallow. May be wrong.

With the exception of the Merkur, this was my shave this morning too, Marco! I didn't post as I switched at the last moment, so my pic was obsolete. Another excellent shot for the week, and a guaranteed superb shave!
