Just refiled my supply of this shave soap. Builds a excellent lather with hard water, the scent is lasting and the medium menthol feels great on my face. With 8 shave soaps in my collection this Stirling shave soap was #1 on the refill list an excellent value , lather and scent.
I have tried both the Glacial and "regular" MITA. Hands down, for summers in Florida, Glacial is the only way to go. Be sure to pair it with MITA Glacial aftershave. Put a little on the back of your neck and shoulders. You won't be sweating buckets before you get to you car! Ice cold margarita goodness!
As with all Stirling shave soaps, the lather production, slickness, and cushion is beyond compare. If you're a wet shaver, I think thay Stirling should be your first stop for shave soaps. It may also be your last stop. They are that good.
This is an amazing shave soap. Lathers really well and provides great cushion and glide. The glacial effect is insane! It feels so good after a hard day's work in the heat. If I run out before summer I will have to get more for sure! I am definitely a Stirling Soap Co customer!
What a fantastic soap! I love the citrus/lime scent. The cooling feeling on the skin during the shave is over-the-top. This will be my summer go to shave soap.
I originally tried the regular formula but accidentally got the glacial. Pleasant surprise! Never experienced a mentholated soap before but this was incredible! Menrholated soap with the warmth of my scuttle!
I thought my skin was having an allergic reaction at first. This is my new favorite soap! Thanks rod!
I've been wet shaving for over twenty years now- got lucky to have an English gent as a neighbor, who suggested it as a superior shave, and a massive cost savings- correct on both counts, John Benn! During that time, I don't think I've ever used any shave soaps that weren't glycerin-based. Having recently tried West Coast Shaving's Cryogenic soap, I was looking for something similar with my favorite scent- lime. I ran across Glacial Margaritas, and without looking at the ingredients, I immediately purchased it. As I opened the jar for the first time last night, I noted that the the main ingredient was the same product that used to make McDonald's French Fries taste so damn good- Beef Tallow. As an un-reconstructed carnivore, I absolutely approved. Using my trusty Merkur 1903 loaded with a Feather, and Simpson Commodore, I thought the shave seemed, oh, I don't know, dry, is the best I can describe it. However, it was a great shave- no nicks or weepies. An hour later, I was out to supper with my wife, and I absentmindedly rubbed my chin, and then it occurred to me that I'd given myself the closest shave I'd ever had. After shaving, I've never not felt at least the faintest amount of stubble under my chin, but after using this soap, my chin felt as smooth as could be. I'm guessing beef tallow is the secret to this, and now I can't wait to shave again tomorrow to see if i get similar results, which I suspect I will. Thanks, Stirling Soap.
Margaritas and a whole lotta methol! I've been sporting a beard for some time, but couldn't take it anymore, especially with the heat. I've reconnected with my safety razor, and went all out with this shave soap and it certainly doesn't disappoint. Definitely a cooling experience, and the soap itself lathers and performs beautifully. The only problem is now I want to try all the other scents!
Soaps like "Margaritas in the Artic" really make you enjoy wet shaving that much more. The delicious smell coupled with the ice cold menthol creates a shaving experience that you don't want to end. I usually only drink wine cooler type drinks but I will have to start trying more Margaritas because of this soap.
I wasn't sure if the "GLACIAL" version would be too much, but it was quite pleasant. It bothers my eyes a little when I first put the soap on my face, but it goes away pretty fast. I'm enjoying shaving more than ever now. Margaritas in the Artic was actually the first Stirling soap I ever heard of so finally getting to try it has been awesome.
And shot out to Rod for always replying to emails rather quickly. I don't know how you do it but thanks.
I only recently got into wet shaving and I have only tried a few brands but Stirling is definitely my favorite. It took me a while to really learn how to lather it right but when I did it was fantastic, blows TOBS out of the water. I love menthol and Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic has lots of it. Love the smell too. Already ordered a few sample pucks to try more scents. Probably a customer for life now
I purchased 3 containers for Rivers Edge in Columbus, Ohio.
I’ve only tried the Margaritas and love the soap.
Chris Bailey recommended your soaps and after 3 shaves I am a fan!
Thank You

Love this product. makes me actually want to shave in the morning. I was looking for a strong menthol shave product and this meets my expectations. the cooling effect lasts for 45 mins after I get done with my shave. This is my first "glacial" shave soap. Have also recently purchased the Satsuma glacial shave soap to give some scent variety to my morning shave. Post shave I love the margaritas in the arctic witch hazel and aloe product to put on my face. Not sure if that is its intended purpose, but feels great.
I shaved with the Margarita's in the Arctic-Glacial shaving soap for the first time tonight and all I can say is it is awesome! It offers great slickness and also keeps your skin cool throughout the shave. The post-shave feeling is just as cold as well, which is refreshing.
I got this one 2 add 2 my Stirling collection.it so colder than the original.great as always.the tattoo on the polar bear is awesome great art work.stirling is just the best.that glacial coolness with that margarita its just perfect.
I ordered a sample of this soap. What a great way to start your morning off with a great refreshing shave. The menthol wakes you up with nice cool feeling to your face.
The soap lathers well and smells good along with your face feeling cool after shaving. I will be ordering a jar of this soap.
As if the regular version of MITA isn't cold enough, this one is MUCH colder. After all it's got Glacial level menthol so it has to be! The same great lather, rich, slick creamy lather, and the same lovely citrusy/tropical scent along with such wonderful post-shave care. Rod and Mandy, thanks so much for bringing it back!
