    What are the top 5 soaps that you use the most?

    You make wonderful soaps; how I wish I started wet shaving with decent soap, a DE razor and blades - on reflection the carts and junk in a can seems I used were such a waste. Hope all is good with you and yours, Chris

    I read years ago that eucalyptus is an effective mosquito repellant - on a work trip to Riga I never thought to take any anti-mosquito spray. However, I had Proraso (Green) aftershave balm - my colleagues were bitten to hell, and I was okay! I see the CDC now cite lemon eucalyptus as effective...
