Speick Stick
Valobra Stick
Palmolive Stick
Tabac
La Toja Stick

A few to start with fella

Mama Bear, Scent from Heaven, Mitchell's Wool Fat. Or, more of a safe option, absolutely any Trumper's Soap.
& for around 50p the Palmolive shave stick is amazing performance (my opinion).

I was looking at the soap sticks, quite like bowl lathering though.

grate up the palmolive stick and squish it into a tub like so:

works a treat.

Grate them, Speick, Palmolive and Valobra punch well above their price tags.

As well as the other suggestions I really do like Nannys soaps , though they're soft not hard and I find they work really well for me. The Yushu is probably my favourite.

+1 on that, nannys soaps are awsome like silk on yer face....i have the zinger, lavender and eucalyptus.....all amazing, good for a nice slow lazy shave, yummy stuff !

I quite like the idea of grating some palmo or mitchells wool fat.

I have nothing to add to the above save soak you brush and cover the top of the cake with a little water first - it makes all the difference in the world.
And welcome to the wonderful world of shaving soaps!

Everyone here has at some point enjoyed the 'pleasures of the palm'. You won't be the first and you certainly won't be the last.

By 'palm' I mean Palmolive. What are you thinking of? Tut, some people!!

Don't mind him Pigcat, some people just can't get their mind out of the gutter :lol:
