#MMarch24 Madness is getting to the nitty-gritty, so I went with three wet and earthy scents for today's shave.
This is an interesting match-up. Take the scents, branding, and sub involvement out of the equation for a moment, and just focus on value, and you still have a quandary. On one side, Stirling Soap Company, which pairs a darn good lather with a shockingly low price-per-ounce. On the other side, Summer Break Soaps, which has an unbeatable price for an elite-level base. Stirling's standard or Sheep bases compete at that level too, but the texture of a hydrated SBS lather might just be at the top of my favorites list, plus more of their originals work for me. Summer Break Soaps takes the game!
These later matchups feelsbadman. Love you too, Stirling.
