    First time using the silk tallow base, better post shave than the regular base, i might be crazy but scent is also a little bit different, the woods and smoke come a little bit more in this soap base than the gasoline in the regular base and not as strong.

    -

    This is what i start with and this is after the first shave, harder soap base than the regular CF base but i guess that it will get softer the more i use it.

    This blade is pretty much done, too much stubble this past 2-3 shaves my neck is pretty much DFS after 2 passes, i'll keep going but 10 shaves should be the max if i do 2 passes for my whole face.

    Still trying to figure out this base, i've been loading for 30 sec and first pass the lather is pretty meh, not that great but get's the job done, the second pass is incredibly thin, i can't over load since getting another tub will be difficult in terms of transit times so i guess i'll still have to figure it out.

    Had the issue of pretty bad lather on Tallow + Steel soaps after a long time with no use so what i did was push the soap and mix it again, that bring the soap back to life so let's see if that also works with this soap base.

    -

    1.8g of soap was used today

    Unofficial stag challenge rules said that pump will be added on Monday instead of Saturday but i'll go with the previous years rules so 2 sprays starting today.

    Lather was ok for 2 passes but 6.2g of soap was used today, right now i'm at 112.9g and an empty tub weights 25.5g approx. so in reality there's 87.4g of soap, if let's say i use 6g from now on i will have soap for 14 shaves, we are at day 10 so i'll be short by 7 days. I'll try to put less pressure tomorrow while loading and see how that goes.

    4.6g of soap was used today, a 45 sec load and lather for the first pass was workable but second pass is still trash, i guess i'll stick with a 45 sec load for the rest of the month and face lather the most that i can and once i'll see that i won't make it i'll bowl lather, if i could use 4g i should be on the clear face lathering so i'll try to do little pressure while loading.

    This is the last time i'll talk about this soap base but man this is such a shit soap base that is ruining my Stag experience this year, i went for a 30 sec load today and lather was so bad for the first pass that i didn't attempt to do a second one, the only time that the lather was ok for 2 passes was when i loaded 6.2g and right now i'm only shaving my neck, i can't imagine how much soap you need to load to have a decent 2-3 pass shave if you face lather.

    -

    For example with the regular CF base i only pick 1g/1.5g of soap with a 1 min load time and that's good for a 3 pass whole face shave, we're talking here that this base is $3 bucks more expensive and you need 6 times more soap to make it work, the way this soap base is working for me if i want to have good lather's this tub will be good for 18 shaves and just for my neck, i bet that the soap per shave if i do my whole face will be around 10g so i could only get 10 shaves per tub. OG base is good for 75 shaves, let that sink in, that's just crazy and unjustifiable.

    -

    With all honesty this soap base should be on the do not buy list on the wiki or at least made fun of like some folks do with A&E, Grooming Dept. Etc.

    4.7g of soap was used today and i can see the bottom of the tub, so two things can happen. I'll start to pick up less soap since the mid of the tub is where the brush pick the most amount and i will need to adjust my loading time or keep up the 45 sec load and once the lather starts to get really bad like the first days then i'll move the remaining soap to the center.

    Incredibly hard to tell but the scale says 40.9g so 5.4g of soap was used today, almost 2 more grams than previous days but i should be in the clear, this tub is definitely getting killed at day 31 and if not the remaining will go to the trash.

    I'll take back what i said the other day, today was the worst lather of the month and that's on me because i stopped loading once i start seeing chunks of soap going all over the place while loading but strangely only 3.3g of soap was used today.

    Soap is gone, 5.8g of soap was used today and it looks that i was was off by 1.6g in comparison to the other empty Chiseled Face tub.

    -

    I'll never use the silk tallow base again in my lifetime, even if it get's reformulated or if Midnight Stag only get's made in this base i'll never try it or buy it again. Not in a million years i'll use it for second chance day for LG or even if i get pay to use it, is not worth it, the worst soap base by far that i have tried in the past 4 years. Glad the month is over and not because of the tediousness of using the same gear the whole month, i really don't mind that but this soap base is so bad that it really made shaving this month a chore.

    -

    The last 5 of the year and hopefully i can kill this one next year.
