Interesting comment there about the shelf life of a soap. The only soap that I have ever heard going bad is Cella and I don't know how long after first use. I have a few soaps that are in used for more than a year a none is showing any signs of going bad. I do make sure they dry properly every time I use them though.

Exactly so, hard water requires a lot more soap. Having said that I don't bloom the soap.I gather from that you live in a hard water area, if I loaded for 1 minute I would have enough lather to shave my whole body.
Are you able to define "stay good"? Which part of the soap's characteristics deteriorate? From what I have read, heat and ultraviolet light cause deterioration so keeping in a dark and cool place is recommended. 3 years seems to be the life expectancy of soaps.We're obliged by law to have to display the 'period after opening' symbol and the 12 months is our chemists assessment as to how long the soap will "stay good" for.
I love the word Snurdle...I shall try and use it more oftenExactly so, hard water requires a lot more soap. Having said that I don't bloom the soap.
I now use creams mainly and use a large almond sized snurdle for a 4- pass shave.
+ 1..We're obliged by law to have to display the 'period after opening' symbol and the 12 months is our chemists assessment as to how long the soap will "stay good" for. That said, I have prototype Phoenix and Beau soaps that are well over two years old and they're going great guns.
