Soaps you avoid!

[Morningrise]

Caria Handmade Soap.
Turkish soaps I associate with rich, creamy lathers....and pungency-think Arko and baby brother Derby!
On a whim I ordered Carias natural shaving soap...natural ingredients, fresh from the soapfields of Turkey. Whatever it is, it ain't shaving soap-what little lather there was evaporated within seconds audibly. I gave up after 5 minutes with the worst burn I've had for years! My romantic illusions have been shattered.....

Evelyn And Crabtree Indian Lime, utter shite.

 

[Shemen Zait]

Where shall we start? Scottish Fine, Neil's Yard, GFT new formulation, Tabula Rasa S.Punk

 

[ChopperHarris]

Trumpers Violet - love the smell but far and away the worst lathering soap I've ever owned.

 

[BigBoar]

Institut karite cream. Unlatherable.

Blades Grim cinder. Like lathering with a bunch of nettles. Traded it. Felt guilty. Threw in a tub of Wickhams.

Wilkinson in blue bowl, Erasmic Stick

 

[wimbouman]

Evelyn And Crabtree Indian Lime, utter shite.

Indeed, not good at all.
One of the very few I binned.

Monsavon, Erasmic and Charismata are the others I remember to go to the bin after a few tries.

Arko, until every occupant of and visitor to our home loses their sense of smell !

Forgot to add the Incredible Exploding Erasmic stick! Nae lather and shrapnel everywhere....shame because it's a great smell.

I've only had one truly bad soap - Far North Goat Milk, or something like that. Simply no lather, whatever I did, and I can lather GFT Eucris!

Blades Grim cinder. Like lathering with a bunch of nettles.

It's true, then ... I am a masochist. I rather like the sensation :blush:

+1 on the Arko. Also any GFT, Tabac (smell) or almond soaps (allergic).

 

[pjgh]

Urgh! God! Yeah! Cella ... no thank you! Almond is a proper turn-off for me.

 

[Nishy]

Arko for every reason known to man

 

[Miles853]

I must me one of the very few who actually like Arko. Sure the smell is synthetic lemon but strangely enough it appeals to me. Performance is good too.

 

[pjgh]

Oh, I like it (Arko) ... smashing soap, instant lather and a great face feel. I even like the scent. Follow on with some lemon cologne. Champion!

 

[ChopperHarris]

I'm good with Arko too! Great performer and it keeps the bathroom cupboard smelling fresh
