I am so giddy now. Just purchased an Arko shave stick. I'm ready to make Turtle proud. I heard it laathers like Mad. Oh mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! (Passed out)
I've been meaning and meaning to try the stick of Arko I have...I've had it about 2-3 months. I just took it into the kitchen, found a small bowl and grated the stick into it. Pressed it down into a semi hard, flat pile and I'll lather it up tomorrow morning. We'll see how it goes. The bowl I used is really not quite big enough and the Arko fills up about 75% of it, but it will be ok for a test. I can always transfer it to another bowl once I find a new lather bowl.
I like the way the Arko smells. Nice and clean, soapy smell. Some complain that is has an awful smell, but I don't find it that way at all.
