Developed a bit of a cold over the weekend. Luckily this vegan TGS soap is stronk and it cut through my sad sinuses. Very good Cool Water type dupe. The soap is a little smoother and fruitier than the real thing, which is welcome. No clue what the splash is like. Followed it up with blue aftershave and blue perfume.
Soap performance was just as satisfying as any other vegan soap I've used. It's fine, y'all. Vegan shave soaps earned their bad reputation back in the dark ages of modern shave soap before artisans truly understood what they were doing. If a modern vegan shave soap sucks, it sucks because the soapmaker sucks... not because it's short on animal-derived ingredients.
