Eco Warrior Shaving Soap Bar | Shaving Bar For Men & Women | Vegan, Natural, eco friendly, Cruelty-Free | No SLS or Parabens | Contains Moisturising Coconut Oil & Shea Butter, Bergamot & Lime | 100g

I live in Somerset, so the water here is a little softer than some parts of the country, but this soap foams up really quickly & keeps on foaming. I use a synthetic brush to lather up in a bowl then apply to face & the lather builds. Lather lasts for the length of my shave & the lather in the bowl is still good for another 2 passes. I've attached some photos to prove this is good stuff, apologies for the face shot. A couple of things which helped me: firstly, I squashed the bar into a round container with a lid (easier to do when it's been used a couple of times as it gets softer & malleable), this is great for storage & use; secondly, you can put a little surface warm water on it in the container (less than 1mm) to warm it up. This really helps the transfer onto the brush, ready for lathering in the bowl. However, use the soapy water in the pot as a pre-shave before swirling the brush as otherwise it'll be too wet. Make sure your brush is wet with warm water but squeeze out the excess water. You don't need a lot of soap, 5 or 6 sweeps round is suffice. Lather up in a bowl for 20 seconds & apply. (You can apply straight to your face but splashes a little until the lather builds up). Sorry if I'm telling you something you already know but a few reviewers have been disappointed & I wonder if they just haven't done things right or persevered. I'm not vegan so have also tried the revered Mitchells' Wool Fat soap & this compares very favourably to it. The MWF has slightly more cushioning & lighter scent. The Eco W soap has a stronger scent, which is very pleasant, & lathers more. Both give a very enjoyable shave & I alternate between the two when I shave as they're both very good. This soap lasts a long time too, as does the MWF - been using both for 9 months now & hardly depleted the soaps at all. This may have a cheap price buts punches way above that. Give it a go & be as eco as you can without compromise.

I have keratosis pilaris (KP) and sensitive, dry skin. This shave bar works wonderfully and giving my razor (manual and electric) a smooth glide surface which reduces nicks and cuts.The bar foams up well with my hands but I imagined it work great with a shaving brush also.It smells really nice and a little goes a long way.

I shave my beard around 3 times a week and one bar has now lasted me a whole year. Ok, I’m now down to a 1cm x 1cm x 0.5cm square of it but that’s still not bad, a year for £4.50. Probably more expensive than just using own brand shaving gel but it smells great too. My next one is now on its way.. and at the same price as last year! Where else would you see that at the moment?!

Good to use and a nice fresh scent. A nice medium thickness lather but it doesn't last a long time so you may need to rebrush the last bit of your face by the time you cone to it. But it's vegan, smells nice and the lather is ok so I'm happy to recommend.

Lathers well and I tried shaving my legs using this, but it left the skin quite dry and didn't seem to result in as close a shave I get with cheap shaving foam which is also more moisturising.

This is excellent on my sensitive skin and I use it regularly. Have been purchasing this for over a year now and I will never buy shaving gel or foam. Keeps my skin lubricated well for shaving until it is rinsed off.

I was disappointed with this shaving soap. It took a surprisingly long time to build up a decent lather, which is a major drawback when you're looking for a quick and smooth shave. Even after working at it for a while, the lather was thin and inconsistent.The biggest issue, however, was the burning sensation I experienced afterward. Right after shaving, my skin started to sting, and the discomfort lasted for several hours. It left my skin feeling irritated and uncomfortable.

I just reordered this! I was looking for an environmentally friendly shaving foam option and this is perfect! I keep it on a little soap tray ready to go and this lastet me ages!! Foams very well, legs are smooth after and it also smells great. Can recommend :)
