Messy but great results, 23 Aug. 2010
This is the first shaving soap I have tried, after years of gels and creams. The fact that it is a soap put me off at first as I thought it would dry my skin out, something you wouldn't want when shaving. However, I'm happy to report that it doesn't do this, and that it's easy to use and provides a nice, thick lather. The soapy smell is quite noticeable but it's not too bad and you do get used to it. This Culmak soap costs more initially than a gel or cream, but it lasts for ages - I bought mine six months ago and it will easily last another three or four weeks of daily use.Soap is messier to use than shaving creams or gels as you do have to clean up the excess lather afterwards, but you do get a good shave with it as long as you wet your face with the hottest water your skin can bear first. One minor niggle - the refill almost costs the same on Amazon as the whole soap in the bowl!

Good for beginners, 19 Jan. 2010
Bought for my husband who started using a cut throat razor. He says it's good for a beginner and for someone who doesn't mind the normal soap smell. Is a good soap though and does the job. Be warned though the lid pops off not twists off. It was quite stiff at first and took him a while to figure out how to remover the lid! Highly amusing :)

Rich, creamy and smells good!, 3 Mar. 2010
Before I bought this product I had used a few shaving solutions before, KOS gel, Gilette, Loreal, Nivea, Palmolive, many more and also Wilkinson sword's own shaving soap. I have been going through a shaving renaissance lately, giving up cartidge razors and moving to a Dovo Shavette disposable blade open razor. I bought the Culmak as part of my renaissance and have not been disappointed. It lathers up nicely, smells great and allows the blade to glide easily over my skin with minimum irritation. Just tonight I shaved for the first time with a Merkur HD and the Culmak soap - Wow! What a shave, close, smooth and for the first time since I started shaving I've been able to shave against the grain without feeling like I am pulling my skin off. I'm plannng to try the Proraso range of products but I've had Culmak a month so far and it doesn't look as if it's ever going to run out. I highly recommend this soap, just get a good shaving brush.
