Col. Conk Bay Rum Traditional Shave Soap, 2oz

Very poor performance

I used to like the old Col Conk glycerin soaps but I'm not a fan of the brand anymore. The new formulation of their shave soap is a downgrade in almost every way. The bay rum scent is much stronger (the only positive) but unfortunately I get a burning/stinging reaction on my face, probably because of the increased amount of fragrance. It's a difficult soap to lather and practically disappears as soon as you brush it on. Slickness is okay despite the vanishing lather, but I ended up with a lot of redness and irritation on my skin after shaving. Overall, it's just not a good soap.
