Soap for more than straights?!

I started with soap. I use both soap and creams. I like both equally
Agreed! The soft soaps are great for creating a quick, thick later and seem to still last quite a while. Cella was awesome and now I'm on to Castle Forbes Lime....which is an awesome experience.
+1 i started off with Mystic Water Soap and have never given it up as it is one of the best soaps that i have tried; all natural with great protection and moisturizer!
I get what appears to be the opposite effect using cream with a straight. I have tried repeatedly and only shaving cream is good enough with a straight. Perhaps it's my brush? It's a bit soft. Might have to try aa stiffer one.
Could be...could try loading the brush longer.
Or if all else fails..get yourself a cheap yet good boar and give it a shot. I heard all the hooplah about boars on here so I figured I'd try one out..got a Omega 10086 for $7 from Italian Barber and flippin love it.
I am a DE-only shaver, and I use soaps about 95% of the time, with an occasional Bigelow cream shave when I want some face freeze.
I'd say the ease of face-lathering and the availability of cheaper soaps like Arko and Palmolive that work really well keeps me from spending much time trying out creams.
