Its been so long since I posted I had to re-register. A couple years ago I bought MDC original and it sat in my cabinet for quite a while before I finished the soaps that were at the front of the line. My OCD won't let me soap swap. Once I start using it I have to finish it. I paid 59 dollars for the MDC original, and I had some serious buyers remorse, because my wife was a tad upset at that amount for soap.
MDC is not a cheap soap and I was curious how long it would last. I shave 6 days a week give or take a few days here and there. On March 1st, 2021, I decided I would not skip any days or add any days to my schedule to see how long that expensive soap lasted.
Here is my method Not scientific method.
I face lather with a wet but shalen out Pure Tasso Brush that is too old.
I never counted the number of swirls just what felt right. If there was not enough I gave it another swirl.
That tub of MDC original lasted 404 shaves!
My tubs of TOBS sensitive skin will last about 90 if I'm lucky. Granted they are smaller but even at the same weight they would not last 404 shaves
Yes, the now price of 69ish dollars is a hefty amount for soap but this stuff lasts and in the end is pretty darn economical. Plus the MDC quality can't be beat.
I will order another tub once the weather cools.
