Slickest soaps out there

[JAHE]

I forgot to mention Stirling. Stupid me...

ToBS is almost as slick as Cremogena; Cremogena Plus is even slicker. It's the same 1:1 Cremo:Neutrogena, plus additional glycerine added.

Use a preshave

I always had considered Pre Shaves to be snake oil, I nevertheless, tried Proraso Green Pre shave - It works. Reading around on a couple of Forums, Noxzema was mentioned - specifically the Walmart Generic brand of Noxzema cream. Ant it's under $23 for a YUGE tub of the stuff. It works! Not one to leave tings alone, I added some kokum butter, avocado oil and an emulsifier & it works as well or maybe better than my jar of Proraso.
I would think that shea butter, jojoba, or even crisco would be ascceptable substitutes, or even avocado oil alone, or even olive oil.

Castor oil

Not a fan of their packing for the aftershave.



.

The Holy Black has the most mediocre shaving soap and aftershaves and efp that I have ever purchased.The noisy box they send the product in doesn't change the fact that the soap isn't slick and the scents don't last!

Looks like from the past 2 months in the artisan soap world, that the slickest soaps are from the newest bases from:

-Declaration Grooming (Milksteak)
-Murphy & McNeil (Kodiak)
-Wholly Kaw (Siero)
-Zingari Man (Sego)
-Arianna & Evans (Strained Yogurt)
-Grooming Department (Nai)

I'm sure there are others out there I'm forgetting from B&M, Shannon's, SS, etc.....

Finally got a hold of DG Milksteak and it is the slickest soap I’ve used yet.

Kairos is in the final stages of development. It will be released in the next couple of months.

While I love my other soaps and bases, milksteak takes the cake (or should I say steak?) It’s stupid easy to load and it’s mind boggling how slick it is.

I do tend to find these slicker too as they hold more water before reaching the breaking point. The artisans tend to have more skin nourishing properties than slickness itself and usually hold less water in comparison.
