    Hi, welcome to our little corner of the fediverse!

    I’ll assume you’re located in North America given that you started with a Maggard set.

    One great artisan soap maker that sells shave soap in pucks is Stirling Soap Co. They sell their soaps in the forms; tubs with 5.8oz, refill pucks of 4.5 oz, and (probably best for you, given you’re wanting to try new stuff), 1 oz sample pucks.

    They have two soap bases, the regular beef tallow base, and the sheep tallow base. Soaps in sheep tallow are a little more expensive, but not much.

    The are loads of other artists, too, and Maggard sells samples of many of them. I suggest you start with Stirling, if you find something you like. It’s great value and great quality.

    But if you get bit by the soap bug and want to try more, check out the recent March Madness event on our parent sub. Those are the 16 most popular soap makers of 2024 in a community that prides itself on using only the best quality products.

    When it comes to upping your game, that’s a broad question. You could get a higher quality razor, a fancy badger brush, a shiny straight razor, try a single edge safety razor? The options are endless. Do you have something in mind?
