This is a great combination that delivers wonderful shaves! Comfortable and smooth. Great post-shave face feel.

Simply outstanding! 👍
 
I'm using the stick, cream and aftershave splash. Each has a different scent to me with the stick being my favorite.

They all perform fantastically. In fact, it is now the only brand I'm using! My skin likes the stuff and my family appreciates the scent.
 
Been using my speick granted into a bowl now for almost three weeks. Have to say it is one of the best soaps there is. Lathers easy like tabac, but slickness and post shave face feel is at MWF levels. But, much much easy to lather than MWF.

If you’ve never tried it, get it. I used to like it, but after this streak has helped me to dial in the lather I am much more of a fan, ranking if top tier with only a few others.

I'm using the speick grated into a bowl at this point. I'm finding the loading and lather much easier to handle and the shaves a pure joy.

I've switched to an ATT S1 as the RR Mamba was a bit much, to my inexperience with that razor I'm sure. Since doing so I've bee getting effortless DFSs everytime.

I didn't plan on doing Speicktember, but it's been my most-used soap by far as it turns out. I love its scent on a cool morning, and the lather is simply incredible. Used it today for the eighth or ninth day in a row. Fantastic!
 
Thirty days hath Speicktember...and I've been using Speick for quite a lot of them...

Really a pleasure to use this combination. :)

Outstanding shave! :)
 
I'm still using my Speick and will till I've finished. It's been a great month of shaves, not only for the product but the camaraderie in the forum.

Btw the pics people have posted have been great and make me want to step up my game in that department.
 
Still 3017ing a tube of Speick...

Speick cream is very good, but I prefer the stick for scent and slickness.

Speicktember was wonderful.

Both the Cream and the Stick are awesome!

I definitely need to keep both in my regular rotation - they are that good! 👍
 
Without knowing I was in on this one. After all, Speick is the only shaving cream I am using.

(Currently I am not using soaps because I have not found any tallow-free soap good enough and I have been too lazy to make my own)

MdC is a great vegetable soap.

Wonderful stuff. I repurposed a TOBS cream container and it now and will always be filled with grated Speick sticks. The cream is fantastic and my travel option. Now, if you haven't tried their bar soap you need to! I buy them by the dozen, ends up being $3 a bar.
