    Default Shaving Soap

    I know some here can help me with this minor dilemma:

    I recently ran out of Williams shaving soap, and it looks as though it is not produced any more. I'd like something similar to replace it with. I'd really prefer something unscented if possible.

    Bad news, it's very hard to find great quality no-scent shaving soap. Kiss My Face unscented work, full stop. It does not lather well using a brush and that was bummer for myself BUT I'm learning to be adaptable these days.

    This will have to do until I find a replacement.

    FWIIW If you scour the nasty bottom shelves of old drug stores you can have some luck finding Williams.

    Himalaya soap.

    although I know you don't want scent, I prefer hard sandalwood soap.

    We sell an olive oil soap with very little fragrance but good moisturizing and clean rinses. We also have a eucalyptus bar that some tall people rave about. Everything we make is all natural with no animal products. My favorite is Peppermint Scrub which has Himalayan salt, Epsom salt for better suds, and peppermint essential oil. I shower, wash my hair, and shave with it. I'm sure we could cut the bars to fit a shaving mug.

    I typically use whatever bar shaving soap that is on the shelves wherever I can find it, but I also use Cremo Shaving Cream. The Cremo, being a cream, doesn't lather up like the bar soap does and can be difficult to rinse out of a multi blade razor, but it gives a close shave.

    How do you get the soap sharp enough it can shave your face?
