Elektrik Chair Shaving Soap
Made by an artisan soap maker/barber here in Malaysia. Excellent performance. Nice thick and creamy lather. Good slickness and great cushion. Scent is very good and post shave face feel is great too.
Made using some pretty good ingredients.

Also..

Teach me how, how do you make such lather ??:001_tt1:
The soap was for something in this. The exact recipe for that one was : because it's a big badger, after soaking, I squeezed most water down the brush. Then loaded from the tube holding the tube upside down for 1 minute. Then went to the bowl and started circular motions for about 10 secs because there's not enough water since I squeezed the brush preloading. I add just a bit of water at a time, less than a teaspoon. Then continue circular motions and some left to right motions to release some lather in. Only if needed I re-add water. Im looking to get a lather at first looking milky but then I work it until it gets uniform, thicker and as much as possible bubble less.
Hope that helps. With synthetics, I load lot less. Example MDC with a synth I load for 15 secs and got enough for 3 pass.
