Thread: New Appreciation for Arko

Yes Arko is great value



You can purchase applicator which works great for Arko.
BTW it's against the law to force Arko into a container and load the brush from it.

Geeeeesh Raol you got them taking the 5th now :<0)

Arko is rapidly becoming my "go to" soap. I have tried all ways applying it but the lather is so much better when its face lathered.

My favourite thing to do is to soak the end of the stick while you soak your brush, then it goes on the face better and seems to lather more readily with less water. I hate runny lathers especially when face lathering, but thats not a problem with Arko.

You guys have got me convinced that spending a mighty €1,20 on Arko is well worth it. Thank you for this type of threads, as I'm currently only favouring 3 of my 8 soaps and hence am badly in need of a few new ones.

I don't know the brands of two of my favourite soaps, but I'll put up some pictures soon. They were given to me by a friend and they are absolutely fantastic. Performance similar to MWF, but better smelling.

In SEQ, where do you buy Arko?

I buy it direct from Turkey, where it is made. I get it on ebay, he has a website, but I just like ebay and paypal. Delivery is real quick.

I buy it in packs of 5 usually but there are other options.

Gentlemen,
Arko stick is a good soap. It makes good lather and provide cushion and glide. Some like the hearty fragrance and some don't. I do. Indeed, the best way to use the soap is, as noted, to rub it on a wet face and then use a brush to lather. By the way, Arko soap now comes in a tub, too.

Note: Here is a link to the Arko tub:
