**Featured Soap** Shannons Soaps Ltd - Lady Luck, Tallow based soap made in Ohio, USA. This scent is described as “A clean scent of amber, vanilla, and bergamot with a dash of patchouli and sandalwood that just might extend your luck late into the evening. “
**Soap Ingredients** Tallow, kokum butter, avocado oil, cocoa butter, shea butter, stearic acid, glycerin, lanolin, coconut oil, essential oils and fragrance, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide.
**Shave Result** The Shannons soap texture was firm and I used a generous rounded quarter teaspoon scoop (2gm) to which I slowly added 15ml of water to generate a lovely creamy, shiny, high density lather, a top performing lather. From the lather I get a clean sweetish cologne type scent, that reminds me of a lady’s perfume in some way, scent strength 5/10. Awesome smooth clean close shave from the Leaf & Twig combined with My-Blades Silver blades, virtually a BBS.

** Disclosure** I did not pay for the My-Blades used in this shave, they were sent to me by My-Blades for evaluation and to provide promotional giveaways in the local (Australian) FB group.
