Shari Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Handmade shaving soap is the best. I have been making it for years now. I formulated it by reading Badger & Blade and on another forum that had some awesome wet shavers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same thing... felt like a secret agent infiltrating the target market to learn what they REALLY like. More important was learning what they definitely do NOT like: No clay. No olive oil. The list goes on haha. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shari Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) Absolutely felt like a covert spy over there. They certainly know what they like and don't like. Yes, no clay, no olive. I need to make some. It's been awhile. Edited June 3, 2020 by Shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I did the same, read and read and read badger and blade forum and others. Been making and selling shaving soap for at least 10 years now. For the last year or two I have been reformulating my recipe to make a 'gel' type shaving soap. It took a while to get it right. You still work it the same as a shaving puck (soap) using a shaving brush to work up the lather its just that it comes in gel form now so I can package it in a container. I've been wanting to make my shaving soap into a shaving gel for years so I am much happier now. Besides, the packaging looks ever so much nicer. At least I think it does. More upscale and classy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
