Price: Neither cheap nor expensive. Given the quality of the ingredients and the fantastic customer support, ~$10 for this bowl of soap is a no-brainer.
Quality: Mama Bear's soaps have a certain feel to them, and one can easily tell that love plays a big part in their creation. They come in sturdy polymer bowls which are upgradeable to attractive wooden ones, but can easily be melted to fit any container. The quality is top-notch, and I admire their homemade charm.
Scent: If you like bay rum, you owe it to yourself to give this one a sniff. Using only essential oils, the soap blends Dominican bay and tangerine for a very clean, yet warm, bay rum. Fans of St. John's Bay Rum will likely enjoy this scent, as the focus is on bay rather than cloves and cinnamon. The tangerine imparts a sweet citrus brightness, making for a truly wonderful concoction. This could very well be my favorite bay rum thus far. Sue, if you're reading this, how about a Marauders Citrus cologne splash?
Lather: As per usual for Mama Bear, the lather from this soap is outstanding. I had no problem generating copious amounts of slick, creamy lather.
Efficacy: I routinely get great shaves with this soap. I guess you could say it's efficacious.
Moisturizing: I love glycerin soaps for their moisturizing properties, and this is no exception. I'll definitely be reaching for this when winter rolls around.
