*Fanboy is the nickname I've given to a soap formulation I worked up that has a lot of the trendy artisan kitchen-sink ingredients thrown in. You know, the kind that inspire fanboy ecstasy on certain other forums. Cupuacu butter, jojoba oil, glycerin overdose, castor oil, coconut milk, a mineral chelator.... It makes good lather, but I'm not sure I prefer it to any of my other soaps.

Re: SOTD: April 1 - April 7, 2019
Thanks. In fairness, I haven't tried all of them, but I'm amazed at how much adulation some of these soaps command. Anyway, like I said, it's a good soap. Not life-changing, though.Mike R wrote: ↑Thu Apr 04, 2019 4:59 amI like the "Fanboy" concept.TRBeck wrote: ↑Mon Apr 01, 2019 8:14 am Maggard Super High Density 2-Band

I've had cupuaçu (note the "ç") juice, fruit, and cupuaçu-flavored ice cream. Cupuaçu butter must come from the large seeds within the flesh of the fruit.

Re: SOTD: April 1 - April 7, 2019
Today's shave was interesting because in spite of the close and smooth shave yesterday, the whiskers had grown a lot in just 1 day. Felt like I hadn't shaved in 3 days! No matter, after the General and Schick combination it was outstanding.
