Active Signature soaps pass around

Yes apologies to all these had stalled with me. I have an absolute favourite in Hibernia, that said the soaps all lather well though being more of a croap consistency took me a little longer to whip up. That said this could be more down to my technique! Another thing I loved was the fact that they don‘t over lather in that its not too thick a foam.

Once on the face the lather lasts well and doesn't dry out unlike some others. Also they didn't leave my face feeling dry post shave. The razor, both DE and straight, glides well and i was able to get a BB shave with one less pass than normal. All in all a massive hit for me.
Glad you enjoyed them

will be posting the soaps this evening...
I found all of the soaps really nice to shave with, good lather and great post shave feel, I will be placing an order in the very near future.
my personal favourites were - Caledonia & Capra.
Thanks again for the pass around, I probably wouldn't of thought to order Capra by description alone.

Apologies for taking so long to post my initial thoughts on the soaps - shaving time has been a bit limited over the last week due to the time pressures of completing my tax return.

For me, the stand out scents of the 5 soaps are Leodis and Capra. They have well balanced scents that really appeal to my sense of smell.

So far, I've only shaved with the Leodis (using it twice) and really enjoyed it. I have the Capra lined up for tomorrow evening's shave with my newly acquired Carbon Cx razor.

I'll use one of the other soaps over the weekend as well and will post my thoughts on them up on Sunday.
 
I enjoyed another great shave with the soaps today.

I tried the Danum and it struck me as having something of an earthy smell (which I suspect is due to the Patchouli essential oil it contains). The performance, in line with the Leodis and Capra, was excellent and these soaps really are a steal at the price point they sell for.

The soap worked well with the Bart's Balms Beard Oil (sent to me to try as a pre-shave oil by @BartsBalm ) which, as always, gave a nice mild menthol feel to the shave.

Overall, I am really enjoying these soaps and, despite my saying that I wouldn't be buying any new soaps this year, can feel a purchase looming in the not too distant future.

Just a quick update guys - the soaps are still with me. Unfortunately, ongoing tendonitis in my hands has stopped me shaving for over a week, hence I've not had chance to use any more of the soaps as yet. I'm hoping to be able to get a shave in at the weekend and will report back accordingly.

I hope your hand is recovered. Did you get a chance to try these? What did you think?

Unfortunately, I've not been able to shave since my last post as my hand ended up deteriorating.

The good news is, though, that I'm planning to have a shave tomorrow and will definitely be using another of the signature soaps accordingly.
