Result: 4.5/5.0 I was digging around in one of my storage boxes and found this puck of Saint Charles Sandalwood Soap. Glad I did. It lathered up nice after a little aging time. I over wet it a tad. Glide and cushion were adequate. The scent was a little light though. I need to figure out how to use the Lucky Tiger Facial Cream in my routine. I put it on shortly before the shave and it worried me that it was going to interfere with the shave based on how it felt on my face. I'll do some experimenting and see what works best.
