Came home to find two packages waiting for me. An arko stick in one and Mama Bears new lemon rose soap in the other. Well after all the excitement of the lemon rose thread i knew i had to jump right on this review so i went straight to the bathroom and started soaking my Semogue SOC. Then i opened the tub of soap and my wife instantly says "oh, that smells gooooood" I really didn't know what to expect as i had never smelled a lemon rose combination before, but i was very pleased by the scent. The rose is stronger than the lemon and it just adds a touch of freshness to the rose scent. well, now that i know that the scent is good it's time to lather up. i flooded the puck with warm water and let it sit for about 30 seconds. I loaded my SOC (my favorite brush btw) for 30 seconds. then swirled for about a minute. having only face lathered with mama bears in the past i found that i underestimated the amount of water i would need so i had to add some. heres what i came up with after about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
The lather performed wonderfully. i performed a 3 pass shave and some touch up. I used my feather as d1 and a feather blade. I normally would have used my r41 but i am forcing myself to give the feather a fair chance to impress me(that's another thread).
So overall, i am really happy with the lemon rose soap from Mama Bear. She went out on a limb for me and came off smelling like a rose(with lemon).
Thank You Sue, you are an artist.
