The bottom of a tub

Started on May 6. This soap took a long time. Glad it's finally gone. While yes it provided great shaves and I do like the scent. It just wouldn't die. I'll be taking July off from 3017 as I have a bunch of new soaps I need to get a couple uses on and we have a lot of vacation this month. Back on the train in August.

Killing a full tub of SC is quite the achievement! I have 17 shaves on my tub of Endurance and it doesn't even look like I've made any kind of dent. SC doesn't get the press it used to but performance is great in my experience and the value proposition of such huge jars is a plus!
 
A farewell to Hemingway shaving cream

My turn to share....

After 6 months and 2 days, My Soapy Bathman Tropical Lime is done. Bear in mind that 250g is just over 8 oz, so this was a BIG tub of soap. Would I buy again, YES to both this soap and this maker, but alas, he no longer makes shave soap.

Up next is a partial tub of Mama Bears Bay Rhum.

... and yes, that is a bite mark from when I got hungry back in 2016.
