[Baloosh]

Could the ultimate shave cream/soap include tallow *and* lanolin? Has such a thing ever existed?

Yes, it is called Mitchell Wool Fat

Heh..

I thought we were going to talk about John Wayne.

this would be a good one for clubman rob. i think i remember him posting at some point that williams used to make a menthol cream or soap.

No, no. John Wayne is the Duke...

Besides, Boggart's nothing to sneeze at either...

 

[rdeakle]

I wonder if he got paid as much to do that ad as tiger woods is for the fusion ad (with inflation/time adjustments of course).

The cream is still available in some parts of the world (South America, if I remember correctly). I doubt it has tallow in it.

Hmmm. I always pictured Bogart whipping up a good, stiff lather with badger brush and a mixture of warm tequila and Palmolive, all while Bacall gazed longingly at him....

Sounds like the equivalent of kryptonite for beards don't it?

 

[dpmtherrien]

Never heard of Williams' cream. If I ever see any I'll sure give it a try.

 

[OldSaw]

I wonder how it compares to Omega?

I can't follow your link, probably because it goes to THE SITE THAT MUST NOT BE NAMED. Here are some pics of that, but I have also seen a South American version in some SOTD pics.

Well, if you want to get technical, JB Williams is NOT the maker of Mug soap or AV either. Those products are manufactured by Combe, Inc. under license from JB Williams.

Indeed there is. The Wilkinson Shave Stick, is tallow and has lanolin, and it's the best shave stick I've used.
