Bike Boy said:It is not the longest lasting lather, it starts to dissipate in less than a minute, but the lubrication and soapiness remains long after the bubbles have faded. The lather stays long enough for me to shave a cheek, and half a neck at a time, and I just reactivate the lather (just the lightest touch with the brush) when I rinse my razor.

You've kind of said what's wrong there - the lather vanishes too quickly. If I recall correctly this is a similar observation of soapalchemist's initial offering.
Incidentally I bought mine (still unused) at their soapworks in the old mill centre at Spean Bridge - lovely setting, some beautiful handsoaps there too.
Bike Boy said:I admit I don't have extensive experience of different soaps. All I've tried are;
D R Harris Marlborough - the first soap I tried after aerosol cans.
Penhaligon's English Fern - lovely smell, but made my face nip.
Kent - very nice, leaves my skin feeling good.
Highland soap - very nice, leaves my skin feeling slightly better than Kent.
What don't you like about the Highland soap?

:lol: A lot mellower than the Cold water "Bollocks" response. :lol:
Cant comment on their shave soap, but their bath soaps are top notch.
