I see a few Bay Rum scented soaps out there, but no creams. Are there any?

I have a very tough, hard beard, and on top of that, I have very fragile, sensitive skin. Her creams and soaps make my skin feel so good, even while I'm lathering up with them. I have her Bay Rum cream, her "Churchill" cream and soap, which both smell great, and a "Zeder" (Cedar) soap, and also some of her Eichenmoos cream. These products are something which I can't be without now. I never saw anything which could repair and just about regenerate and redo my skin like these. I admit the soaps require a technique to creating a proper lather, but it can definitely be done by playing with the soap/water ratio a little. The creams require a little less water than most others, and do they ever give lather! In my honest opinion, if I owned the company she has, I'd charge a hell of a lot more than she does because that's how good I think they are. Check out the reviews I wrote on these soaps and creams.

Sorry I left you alone for such a long time, but my computer went bellyup.
Here I am with a new one
As far as glycerine, well I do not label it explicitely, but its a natural by product of saponification. We cannot tell how much of this is actually in the soap but its there.
The best way to tell whether a soap contains sufficiently glycerine is if you rinse off a bar after use and set it aside, then it will become sort of shiny.
Other than that there are no methods to tell.
As far as parabens, preservatives and humectants... I do not use any of that stuff.
Have a nice day,
Olivia
