Desert island 🏝 soap/cream?

[RicoSuave]

So, you’re stuck on a deserted island, and you can only bring along one soap/cream, which one would it be, and why?

(Yeah, yeah,... I know, there’s probably NO need to shave on a deserted island, but pretend you want to look good for the rescue team! )

Currently Speick.

I just revisited it after 5+ years of experimenting with the best artisan soaps. When I tried it again, I thought, why would anyone use anything else?

Congrats on being FIRST, “Czech!”

Yeah, I’ve heard that “Speick” is especially good for those with sensitive skin.

Predictable, but 'Tabac'' of course

WHY “Tabac?” [emoji848]

What’s it smell like?

Lather potential?

Has to be Tabac. Tabac always delivers. Great lather every time, great feel, great shaves, cheap, lasts a year and a half or so. Some say it smells like the inside of your grandmother's purse, flowery but not in any specific way. I get it, but I don't object to that. I prefer MWF, but she's a temperamental little *****. Tabac never lets you down.

“MWF?”

 

[Mempho]

MWF = Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap.

I used Speick exclusively for years.

Arko! (Right, @FarmerTan ?)

Not to shave with, but when you see a boat or plane, throw the stick in the ocean and the resulting lather bomb will ensure your rescue.

Gotta be Arko.....but, this here NEXT statement shows you how smart I am, and why I was unanimously elected King of Arkoland: I'd break the stick in half, throw one half in the ocean, and keep the other for use to be clean shaven for the rescue team!

Half a stick of Arko would make a big enough lather bomb to be spotted in the DARK my friend! You know that!

And if by some chance no one DID see it, I'm sure the dog on a passing ship would smell that lovely fragrance and bark her head off!

 

[rockviper]

See, that's why you're so much smarter than I

 

[rbscebu]

Arko because I face lather and SR shave. I need slickness above all else. SR shavers don't care for lather looks, "cushion" or "glide" (whatever they are). So far Arko is the best I have tried for my style of shaving.

My first Tabac should arrive within a week or so.

Tabac. When this guy finds you’ve invaded his island, the smell of Tabac will remind him if his grammy and he’ll show you mercy.

 

[polanalyst]

Hands down Tabac for me! Used it this morning after a long break and it was fantastic! The glide and protection is superb.

Why do people always put this question to a group of soap collecting fanatics who rotate a bunch of different soaps since they can't settle on just one?


Ok, this week I'll say Haslinger Schafmilch!

 

[BigJ]

Haslinger’s schafmilch for me: great lather, very protective and fine skin-conditioning!

 

[RicoSuave]

Wasn’t planning on it, but now I def. gotta get me a tub of “Tabac!”

Never seen a soap so popular, with so many mentions!

Like they said of Elvis, 50 million fans can’t be wrong!

 

[SterFry]

I suppose La Toja just because it can be lathered by any type of water... probably even seawater.

I hate this question because it always stresses me out choosing between my favorites.

 

[jackgoldman123]

Would Wilson shave me?
Or Mary Ann or Ginger?

La Toja sounds perfect
