Taconic Shave Eucalyptus Mint Scent Shaving Soap – Invigorating Eucalyptus Me...

This shave soap is fabulous! Yes, most use it for beards but I use it for my legs. I love the smell, it’s so minty smelling which is invigorating, and will help clear my sinuses which I never expected! It leaves my legs very soft and feeling nice and cool especially if they feel tired, tight, sore or swollen from working out or standing all day at work. I love how it contains antioxidants and is very moisturizing which my skin desperately needs since I am a dry skin girl. This will last an incredibly long time as it doesn’t take much for a nice shave. I also use this on my underarms as well! This will be great to use during those hot summer months as well as after working in the yard, a day on the lake or beach, or just a day outside in the heat! I would definitely recommend!

I have used many shave soaps but this is the best. Makes a thick lather with a brush. Delivers a close shave. Doesnt burn the eyes. Smells great.

Great lather and scent. Could have a bit better glide.

Really good shave soap! Lathers up thick and easy, smells amazing! Definitely recommend

This is my first ever shaving soap always used creams I must say it was very pleasant the smell is really good not overly strong it smells like your deep in the woods smelling the fresh air it’s very calming the scent goes away quickly. The shave performance was a lot closer than a shaving cream for the price it’s a good deal not sure how long it’ll last seeing how you don’t need much for a good lather it should last awhile. Definitely will be trying other scents in the future

I bought this because I wanted to try a shaving soap. I use creams from Taylor of Old Bond Street, and Geo Thumper - both very smooth and full of rich later. This is a different thing all together. It takes much more work to get a lather going and then it's not rich and full of like the creams, so I don't get as close of a shave, and it irritates my skin a bit, so I have to quickly rinse it off (like how soap feels if you leave it on your face too long). To be honest, this is the first shaving soap I've tried, maybe their all like this. Scent is ok and I think the 'puck' will last pretty long, so I'll use it for a backup.

As with all beard/shaving related product, I think it's important to mention that I'm an African American with the typical ingrown hair concerns. Having said that, this is a great product. I have never created so much lather so easily/quickly. If that's important to you, you will love this! I love the scent too. I first purchased the Urban Woods, fell in love and bought Bay Rum. My only complaint is I wish it was stronger but I'm sure I'm in the minority and most would think the scent is strong enough. I use a preshave oil and after a few brush swirls on the soap I apply it to my face and let the lather build. The shave is very comfortable. In the end, my face doesn't feel as moisturized as some shave creams that specifically target African Americans, like Bevel, but it doesn't feel dry like a lot of other shave soaps. So being a somewhat wet shave enthusiast with ingrown hair issues, I have to be very selective in the products I use. So far, I have no concerns using this product as long as I follow the regiment. I highly recommend this and will try their other soaps.

I am not a big fan of fragrance, but the "Urban Woods" is fairly subtle at least. Wish they had a fragrance free offering. My aesthetician wife has told me that tallow based soaps leave a residue that will prevent any after-shave skin care product from penetrating. She approves of this glycerin based soap. It arrives in a steel tin which is not conducive to lathering the puck in the tin, due to potential rust. I finally figured out to pop it out of the tin and put it in the lather bowl to load up the brush, then take out the puck and whip up a good lather with the brush, adding water slowly a little bit at a time(how much water to add is the tricky part. Let the puck dry a bit before closing it in the tin. It does NOT work well to scrape some into the shaving bowl and then try to whip it up with the brush. Once lathered up properly, it is a wonderful, tallow-free, long lasting lather with great cushioning and glide. My face feels good after. I really like it and it is a good value for a high quality shaving soap.
