Soap rotation?

How do you rotate your soaps, if you do? How long between changing? Is there a shelf life to a soap? I have more than I need, and it could be weeks. or months before each one's turn comes up.
 
I rotate my soaps very systematically. I use one soap until another soap grabs my fancy. :wink2: Although I have been stuck on Arko for about two weeks now.
 
soaps dont really have a shelf life at all. They lose scent over time (we're talking years here), but only slightly.

I just use whatever I feel like that day
 
I rotate by week. One week cream, the other soap. This week coming up, it is a soaps week. I've already planned my shaves for the whole week:001_rolle

Usually I just use whatever strikes my fancy with no real rhyme or reason. Just pick on a whim.

Sometimes though, I rotate them like this;
 
Phil, you're killing me. :lol:

I just grab 'em as the mood strikes, with the only exceptions being the Old Spice puck and Williams shave stick. I try to take it easy on them as they are expensive or hard to replace, so those are special occasion items.
 
I'm down to a sliver of VDH Deluxe in a mug that I've been working on for over a year and a half. Still makes great lather. Still smells great. (That is, if you LIKE the lather and smell of VDH... ;-)
