    You may be able to find Poraso cream at a local walmart or pharmacy, you can build a decent lather with that if U don't want to wait...

    Or search for shops that have creams/soaps locally, I found a good one here in NYC and sadly my time and my money are there way too much LOL

    well i'll be back in the new york area in a month-ish so i'll have to check this place out. I'm in charleston right now and I haven't been able to find anything :/

    does this shop in NYC have vintage razors/strops etc or just the soaps?

    They don't have vintage anything, they have tons of brand new Merkur DE stuff, some blades and a TON of soaps/cremes. (Truefitt and Hill, Castle Forbes, Razorock, etc etc etc)

    It's called:

    Pasteur Pharmacy & Surgical

    Check out Kirk's bar soap (and other Castile soaps).
    Today, Castile refers to soaps made without animal fats.

    I to have Larry's "sight unseen deal" on the way. Also ordered about 10 of Mama Bears soap samples that are due to arrive tomorrow. These are single use samples. Whats the best way to get these lathered up? Just toss the sample in my mug and lather as normal?

    So it's all finally here. About to attempt my first shave, probably after a nice long shower. I'll lather it up a few times and then go extra slow, it's not like I have a thick beard anyway. Just a PITA chin.
