I've just cracked open (well torn open the bubblewrap from) a shaving stick from Australia, made from hempseed oil. Wondered if anyone else has tried any soaps or sticks based on hempseed oil? Or indeed if Lord Henk van Scheerzeep has any input...
My experience: The lather is a bit airy, the glide is fantastic and my face feels exceptionally smooth after the shave.
The other thing my mind wandered to today - whilst liquefying some coconut oil to cook with... what does soap made from ghee turn out like? (Obviously one would have to use proper butter ghee and not the vegetable stuff that's really just partially hydrogenated vegetable oil)
