Thread: DR Harris soaps

Do the DR harris soaps contain tallow? or were they reformulated

There where some rumors about them being reformulated, but they still contain tallow, this post over at SMF includes a reply from D.R Harris.

I love both Harris Soap and MWF. The Harris soap lathers more easily but I find the MWF to be a little more moisturizing and protective. MWF and two Harris soaps (Arlington and Marlborough) have a steady spot in my rotation along with several other tallow soaps. The soap I reach for on a particular day depends on my mood.

Exactly my feelings. Thanks for summarizing.

I have the Arlington soap and have found it to be wonderful. Personally, I could care less about tallow....as long as they perform up to snuff!

DR Harris is solid. One of my favorites. As most know from other posts, I hate MWF. I'm going to keep the dish and put another (better) soap in there.

I've tried Dr Harris Almond and Arlington. They provide a more effortless lather than MWF, but not as moisturizing or protective in my opinion.

DR Harris soaps are much easier to lather, but a bit less in other areas. I like em both and both are worth having.

Have you tried the Sandalwood aftershave? Very nice!

Where does Mama Bear Soaps fit in all this talk of shave soaps?!

DR Harris soaps will last around 12 months when used daily. I much prefer them to MWF, in latherability, flexibility, longevity, and scent. Only category the MWF wins is for the nifty ceramic container.
