Mediocre Shaving Soap
Mediocre at best. I’ve been using the sandalwood shaving soap.
It doesn’t lather well - it takes a lot of time and effort to produce anything like a lather, which disappears quickly when applied to the face - it’s almost impossible to get a good lather. It also turns a funny yellowish colour the harder you try.
It doesn’t lubricant the shave. It doesn’t moisturise.
The scent (sandalwood) is mediocre at best.
It leaves the skin feeling dry and tight. It is uncomfortable to use.
You would be better off using a bar of Dove hand soap for shaving.
An Arko shave stick at less than 1/3 the price beats this convincingly in every respect - lather, lubricating the shave, moisturising, scent.
The only saving grace is the wooden bowl is rather nice. Just throw the soap in the bin.
Avoid and save your money for something worthwhile.
I rather suspect Geo Trumper has been bought out by some conglomerate and is now really a brand/front for selling overpriced tack for premium prices.
