Result: 4.5/5.0 OK, I was right. The Kiss My Face is much better than the Tom's of Maine Shave Cream. I really need to try and blend some Kiss My Face with a shave soap to make a Rick's Scream concoction. I have a bunch of Mama Bear Soaps lying around doing nothing but collecting dust and taking up space. Good chance to put one of them to use. I'll double boil the soap and
add the cream, mix, pour and cure for a month. The heating might kill off the scent but that's not the point of the experiment. I can always add back an EO later.
