Result: 3.8/5.0 The Mama Bear soap lacked cushion and glide. I fooled around with the water/soap ratio but it still lacked some performance which was quickly evident when the Feather ACD-N gave me two tiny weepers and then to add insult to injury, the Merkur gave me a weeper. They dried up in seconds but still. I squirted some Kiss My Face Unscented into the bowl with the Mama Bear and bingo. Instant decent lather and no more weepers. It's 2 hours
later and the Ogallala Bay Rum Aftershave is still going strong.
