If you could only buy one Soap (have one on a desert island)

[Andybaby1]

so I started wetshaving about a month ago with my VDH started set, Very nice, and got my first irritation free BBS shave today with it (thanks to kyle's prep and a new blade I got from west coast shaving, astra)

I also got a brick of Col Conks that I like too.

now I'm looking for a Nice Third soap

I'm Mainly Looking at MWF, MamaBear, and Tabac, but I'm open to others

MWF sounds good.

I found Mamabears website today and WOW, that's alot of scents, I'm thinking about getting atleast 1 of these regardless once I figure out which one I like, the Polo one sounds good and so does the christmas one with citris, apple, pepperment and clove. and the apple cider one.

and I've heard alot of goot things about tabac around here too.


Lets see, I'm looking for a soap that will leave my face super Moisterized all day long if possible (this is why MWF is on the top of my list)

If you like more than one, vote for the ones you like

I like Tabac , but YMMV

 

[RoyalKooparillo]

I don't find any of the above particularly moisturizing.

Martin de Candre, if I want a really moisturizing soap.

If I was stranded on a dessert island, I wouldn't need any shaving soap unless I had , brush, hot water, a towel, and a razor to go with it. Some native girls however would be very welcome indeed!

 

[SRock]

I'd vote GFT Limes, though Tabac would be a very close second.

 

[ambrose]

Nancy Boy, but I hate using it with a brush though.

 

[jeffb]

Tabac!

 

[copperhead]

The choice is easy for me, Tabac.

 

[thirdeye]

GFT Limes baby!!!!!!! Tabac nice but.....

 

[TSWebster]

Same as Slagle, GFT Limes but Tabac comes a very close second.

I don't find any of the above particularly moisturizing.

Seriously? MWF does unnaturally powerful moisturizing things to my face. Its slickness isn't the best (cushiony as all get-out, though), but man I LOVE how it leaves my face...all day, even.

 

[Ru4scuba?]

Soap?

I'd get a case of whisky!

 

[redbike]

HBS without hesitation. For me they are the most moisturizing and comfortable of any of my many (25) soaps.

 

[Bristlingbeardofodin]

Tabac

 

[ctakim]

Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet or maybe old Old Spice vintage shave soap. Okay, just one? the BB then.

Blenheim Bouquet, without question.

Might as well enjoy my shaves & smell good if I'm alone on said island.

Alone, right?

 

[Chimensch]

Of the soaps on your list, I've only tried Tabac. It's great but I like La Toja better.

 

[DunEdinRanger]

Mama Bear's Brute, if you like the smell of Brut after shave.

 

[Andybaby1]

thanks, looks like I might get a tabac for 2 reasons.

1, I can get it free as I have an amazon gift certificate, and I can get it on amazon for about 19 shipped in a bowl, this price seems to be okay cause its 17 at wcs+ shipping

2. Beacause all you guys recommended it.

the GFT got alot of recommendations too. hows this price here at amazon?

 

[Stubblefield]

Moisturizing? None of the above, tho Tabac does not dry my face out.

I'd go with Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet or English Fern.
