Corryne's Shaving soap

So I took my chances and thought I'd try a new shaving soap I stumbled across at the Fremantle markets.
this shave soap has got an amazing smell, citrus and lemongrass notes and although it takes a while to build, the lather is rich and thick, so far I'm very impressed with it, has anyone else used this brand of soap?

Never heard of it. What are the ingredients?

Hmm that's a very good question, the ingredients list on the tub aren't a full list as in the picture below:

I've just used this for this morning shave and I definitely prefer my TOBS sandalwood soap, the smell is great but the lather is a little thin and dissipates quickly on the face.

I'd be interested to hear from some others who have used this product to see whether they are having the same problems.

I don't know the soap and I can't imagine that I would bother trying it. The presence of olive oil in the ingredients list is normally an indication that it won't perform well as a shave soap.

Thanks David I'll keep that in mind about the olive oil and it not being a good sign.

So far I've been DE shaving for less than a week and I've only ever tried these two soaps so have very little to compare them to, I'm thinking of trying some Crabtree and Evelyn soon.
