Testers wanted - not for Vegetarians

Used my tweaked sample this morning.
Wow.

That's it, all my concerns wrt slickness and cushion have been sorted & all the great stuff; scent, ease of lather, glide, post shave are as before.

It is really, really, good.
Avoiding a weeing contest of which soap is best, its top tier. Thanks for the chance to sample it.
 
That's great JayGee! So far, so good.
Yep, smashing.

I have a real liking for Pannacrema because it lathers so easily & is a very solid performer in every respect. Very few provide such a balance (the other one is a recent British artisan offering).
This is better than Pannacrema (imo), top job.

Side note; using an ATT S2 same as @Nishy, have been throughout. A good test, it can have a nibble if the suds aren't right.

3rd test of the tweaked Beef, and boy, I had a stupendous shave, everything just clicked.
I face lathered the soap by working a thumbnail size scoop into the tips of a dry synthetic brush, wetting the tips and working into the face. Gradually adding water till I got the 'sweet spot'. The scent was much more intense doing it this way. Really comfortable, close and protective. Pic and more over on my S.O.T.D. Saturday 4th June to Friday 10th June 2016
Thanks so much Sharon for letting me in on this test. :):D:)
 
I received the new sample yesterday and had a shave last night. My first impression was much better as well much like @JayGee, though i want to do a half and half with the two samples and get my wife to put a bit in each bowl without me seeing.

All in all both samples have been really good and I plan to get a tub in DHS as I love the lavender and the vetyver hand soaps I got from you so why not best of both.
 
Very heavy box arrived this morning, thanks, Sharon. The Beef in the morning.

I suspect a lot of the variation being reported is down to two main factors, assuming all men are equal latherers. The amount of product loaded and onto which brush. Less expensive brushes are not going to give the same results as high quality ones. Some guys may be habitually frugal when loading and some generous.
 
Hiya dialed it in right this time with great results the test lather was nicely cushioned and slick. Built in a short time.

Wow! What a soap! Wow! No,I really mean it - Wow! The shaving equivalent of hill starts in an automatic car. Makes DE shaving feel as easy as using carts! This is the gold standard by which to judge all other soaps. Wow!

I suppose, by dint of having used so very many soaps and creams, I'm qualified to make this judgement: not only is this the best soap I have ever used, and by a long way, it is very probably the best soap ever made and certainly probably the best currently available. Congratulations. Sharon! The sooner you get this to market, the sooner you can retire in the manner you wish. It's brilliant.

I shaved so close I look like a teenager! Same razor and blade I used yesterday with Signature but got closer with less effort - in fact, I wasn't even trying for BBS, I was testing a new soap. But BBS happened. Newbies need this soap to learn to shave, any old brush will do, good prep is probably not really necessary. Wow!

Great shaving feel. Great aftershave feel, no balm or lotion required. I had my lather too dry for the second pass and so shaved my skin dry. With a dab of a wet hand, all the slick and slide was restored to the apparently dry skin. Did I say, "Wow"" yet? Wow! I wanna proper sized red tin full of this stuff, please, Sharon, asap. Croap by accident? What a very fortunate accident, which is really more about your skill as a soap maker than accident, I bet.

Oh! I'm talking about The Beef. Brilliant stuff! Wow!
