SB6 Mens Shaving Soap Bowl in Dark Oak - Wooden Bowl Shaving Cream for Men 4.23 oz. Shave Soap Puck - Moisturizes and Hydrates, Prevents Skin Irritation and Razor Burn. Barber Quality Shave Cream

This is the perfect mentholated shaving cream and comes in a great travel size! The scent is incredible and Kent shaving cream provides a silky-smooth lather that lasts without sloughing off. It's easy to dispense and stores neatly on its cap.

Giving it a well-deserved five stars, although that puts Simpson ultra glide shave cream into the mid-7 stars, because that stuff is really insanely good, except Simpson costs more and doesn't have menthol, which I've grown very fond of, as someone who tends to run hot, especially in the summer months. So I did a little round-up of some popular low-cost shave creams with menthol: Proraso, Palmolive, Bigelow (really re-branded Proraso), and Kent. The Proraso eucalyptus smelled great, but for that was about all that was great about it. Palmolive was meh, Bigelow was a little better but still not very good, and then I tried the Kent last and they really knocked it out of the part. It is a clear winner in lathering of the group, for me the only one that makes a lather dense and slick enough to want to shave with. Kent is also by far the mentholiest? Most mentholated? Kent has the highest concentration of menthol by far. Not to say it's super strong or overwhelming at all. The others just had so little menthol I could barely feel it. So Kent gets a spot in the cabinet and I really look forward to using it, which is saying a lot because it's sitting next to Simpson lime and bay rum in there, but it really is that good.

I had been listening for years about how great the Kent shave soap was and I really did think it was a bit of a hype but decided to take the plunge recently and ordered it. For those who aren't aware, this is the famous MWF, only repackaged by Kent, probably with a better scent. I ordered the refill only. It arrived as it's shown here in the picture on Amazon. No box or anything, just the wrapped soap. Out of the wrapper...dry, it smelled very milky. Think Cella, if you've had a chance to use that Italian classic, without the bitter almond scent. I grated it into an empty ceramic bowl I had. I used an Omega boar brush with it the first time. Just a few drops of water on the soap, shook the soaked brush vigorously to get excess water out and then went to work. Man, this thing lathers so beautifully. I bowl lather. Swirled the brush for about 15 seconds on the soap, then proceeded to lather in the bowl. I got mounds of thick, creamy, cushioning lather. It was almost ridiculously good. I've read on several reviews and forums about how difficult this soap could be to lather. Well, I get very hard water here and the two times I've used this, once with boar and once with a Vie-Long horse hair brush, it has delivered very consistent results. I've never made lather this good and easy. Think whipped cream, you could easily fool someone into eating it, it looked so substantial. The initial scent, as I described earlier, is not very glamorous. Once you lather it though, it changes radically. It's still very subtle but it sheds its earlier bland character and there was this new, very complex fragrance... I'm not very good at defining scents... It's very delicate, almost a bouquet of spring flowers and fresh grass... very exhilarating, very nice. It performed very well, provided an excellent surface for the DE to glide on, extremely comfortable shave. One thing is that my skin was very taut when I had finished shaving and cleaned up my face. Not dry but taut, no razor burn though. I believe I'm a fairly experienced classic shaver and I'd definitely recommend this soap to a friend.

Don't listen to negative feedback. I'm a seasoned wet shaver, and can tell you from experience it's a fantastic soap. Load heavy with a damp almost dry badger brush. Start with a thin layer of water in your bowl. Whip it into lather. Toss in pinches of water until it's thick and drippy but not watery, done.

In my quest for the holy grail of shave creams, I must continue my search. This is not to say that Kent is not high quality, just that I did not find in this the be-all end-all of shaving creams. The Kent cream was mentholated (which gives that exquisite post-shave tingling feeling). It also has an excellent lather, lubrication, and smoothness. Far superior to any supermarket creams and equivalent to a Proraso or Trumper product. The only downfall is the scent. It reminds me of laundry soap. Alas, my quest continues.

Fits a Parker shave mug perfectly, makes a great slick lather, scent is clean and professional while being light and inoffensive. Great price point for a great shave soap. I have been trying to find soap pucks like the razorock triple mill soaps and this is a close as I could get for the similar price. If I could give this 10/5 I would.

Very disappointed with this shaving cream. After reading the reviews I was expecting a lot more. The unappealing smell of the cream, the lack of any menthol, and the less than average shave it provided were reasons enough to return it.

The Kent SB2, which is a rebranded Mitchell's Wool Fat soap, is legendary in the wet shaving community for it's rich lather and moisturizing properties. Shaving is one of the worst things to do to your face, creating thousands of tiny tears on the surface of the skin and removing many layers of skin cells, leaving the face raw and dried out. The whole point of soaps and creams and aftershaves and whatever else is to minimize the damage done to the skin, and in this regard nothing beats a traditional wet shave with a classic double edge safety razor, classic high quality soap or cream, and a brush. This soap puts the user closer to shaving nirvana than nearly any other, with a rich lather and incredible moisturizing properties. This soap is especially good at moisturizing due to the inclusion of lanolin, the same ingredient found in hand lotions that make them moisturize the hands. Some very few people are sensitive to lanolin, but if you are one of them you already know and would therefore be well advised to stay away from this specific soap. Otherwise, it is very difficult to point out anything bad about this soap. Some people say that it is difficult to lather, but I have not had such an issue. In my experience if you use good technique in lathering up the brush then you will have good results. For the unparalleled moisturizing properties of this soap, as well as the rich lather, I give this five stars, and wish I could give it more.

Die Seife überzeugt mich in allen Punkten. Ich habe trockene Haut (Neurodermitis) und vertrage diese Seife sehr sehr gut. Der Schaum lässt sich wunderbar leicht aufschlagen, gleitet hervorragend und lässt sich restlos wegwaschen, sehr sehr schöne Rasierseife, der Duft ist der absolute Hammer. Ich kann diese Seife jedem nur ans Herz legen, die muss man getestet haben :-)

Luxury shaving should mean this! Really rich lather, makes shaving alot smoother with less or no irritation. Is a little tough to load properly, you may end up having to reload for your 2nd pass. But that's not a huge problem. Has a mild fragrance. Find a container to store it. No point in spending 2k extra for a wooden box! Happy shaving guys :D

Produto obrigatório pra qualquer wetshaver.

Good soap. Did not come with bowl.

Ho provato ma la fragranza non è dei miei gusti, è non forma una bella schiuma.
