Anyone Tried THE BEACH?

Post by 66GilletteSlim »

New guy here just wondering if anyone has tried The Beach Synergy soap? It looks pretty intriguing and wondering if it's any good. I've never tried any of the Synergy soaps so I don't know if it's any good.

Never tired it, but I never tire of this beach .....

Apologies for hijacking ---- you mention beach and I automatically think Ocean Park, Maine. :twisted:

There's quite a bit of info on Syngery shave soaps but I'm not into vegan products. I believe the correct way to develop a shaving soap is to use what works best irrespective of animal or other origin.

It seems to me the Syngery folks are developing shaving soap around a philosophy rather than the product's intended use.

The Synergy soaps lather very well. No worries. I have not tried the Beach, but I own 4 others. If you enjoy menthol, the Synergy version is as strong as advertised.

I just rcvd it. Shave efficacy is excellent. The synergy soaps are among the best of the best artisan shave soaps IMO. "The Beach" scent smells like Monoi Oil (Tahitian Gardenia infused oil used for after sun skin care)…also analogous to suntan lotion.

It's definitely unique and high quality though not something I'd want to shave with regularly due to the scent. If you're interested in it PM me.

Not sure if I did it correctly but I pm'd you and it says it's still in my outbox. Let me know if you got it, I'm still getting the hang of the site.
