Greetings, I was rummaging around under the bathroom sink on the weekend. I found a few Mennen Shave Sticks that I purchased from my workplace many, many years ago. I reckon it would have to be close to 15 years. I thought should or shouldn't I. I finished up grating them into a small container and I added a few drops of water and flattened down the soap. I tried the soap this morning after letting it dry out. It lathered up well, smelled as I remember it. I applied the lather to my face, put the brush down, picked up my Gillette Adjustable out of the sink and prepared to take the first pass, in this brief amount of time the lather had disappeared. I ran a finger over my face and I could feel a slickness there but the lather had disappeared almost before my very eyes. I loaded up the brush again and the same thing happened. I repeated this for about 4 attempts. The shave in the end was average. The water in the sink was that slippery I could hardly hold the razor. Has anyone else experienced this ? I have heard of others who have used old soaps with no problems. Maybe this soap just doesn't hold up to the test of time.
