Honeybee Spa "Dragon's Blood" Shea Butter Soap

Post by Chris »

Gents,

Bought this soap (along with the oakmoss and coconut scents) from the seller honey0260. I highly recommend it:

Scent: Hard to describe. Sort of a sweet and spicey incense. I swear I smell a pumpkin note in there. This stuff smells really good.

Shave: Close, no irritation after 4 passes.u

Latherability: To get a proper lather, it takes a lot of water. This soap sucks up water to make a moist lather. Overall, pretty good latherability.

After-effects: I must say, out of every soap and cream I have tried, this soap left my skin feeling the best,moisturized smooth and soft. My face felt absolutely great after using this soap.

Cost: Pretty cheap. I got 3 cakes mailed to me via priority post for about $12.00. For that price, you owe it to your face to try these soaps. Honeybee Spa also has several other great scented shea butter shaving soaps.

Intangibles: What self-respecting man would not want to shave with a soap scented with "Dragon's Blood". I mean, how cool is that? It simply doesn't get any more macho than shaving with Dragon's Blood soap!

How would you compare them to the QED soaps?

And how did you find this outfit? Just by chance?

Not as easy to lather. Scent is as potent. Shave almost as good

By searching EBay for "shaving soap". Why? I don't understand why how I found it is relevant...

It is nice to know how someone discovers various products. This gives us ideas of how to expand our product base and locate new and exciting products.

Give a man a shaving soap and he'll shave till it's gone. But give a man a technique for finding new shaving soaps, he'll get SCAD, get his wife perturbed...

No problem. We'll chalk it up to a bad shave. :)

Did you happen to order any of their other stuff as well?

But it was a good shave :)

No, haven't ordered anything else, but I'm thinking of ordering some showergel in the Dragon's Blood scent.

She's currently checking into shipping to Canada. Also, she sent me a list of scents she can make soaps out of. Simple email her at honeybeespa@att.net and she can make you a soap out of the any following scents, for the same price I paid on EBay!:

Click the link, some fascinating scents!
