This soap is hard and should last a long time.

Hi @lu20vt
I was wondering, which base plate you prefer on the Guido?
Safety bar or open comb.
Lovely pics as always
Cheers.

Not that hard, I can easily poke my finger into it. I do load heavy for face&head shave, but the real reason is I've been using it for at least 4 days a week, sometimes more. No soap is going to survive that for long...

I struggle to understand why I don't see more people using Eufros. Manuel's soaps are outstanding.

Cost is the problem.

Agreed, this veg base is about the best performing artisan soap I've used.

Cost is the problem.
