    According to Fight Club some of the best soaps are made from human body fat. Organic.

    What are the "bad" ingredients in MamaBear's soaps ? I was unaware of any.

    If you can find it, I hear Biotique Bio Palmyra Shaving Cream is top notch Indian vegan soap. I tried ordering from a vendor online and had no luck. It's cheap as dirt in India.

    Garth, have you checked out http://www.alsshaving.com/ ? It ain't cheap but it is phenomenal stuff. I swear the container I got said it is all natural. The clary sage and Chillwhip are awesome.

    Hey, the lady at Scentuallyyours.com has certified organic shaving whip that most of the guys in my family use. It comes unscented or you choose the essential oil of your liking. Great stuff!

    There are two types of natural lavender.
    One is less kind than the other. Package
    labels are often unclear which is which. That
    in turn makes it hard to discover which is an
    irritant to you.

    Do not confuse antiseptic and oils turning rancid.
    The chemical decomposition of fats, oils and other lipids
    can happen with or without bacteria.

    Rancidification - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Machine shops can have trouble with cutting
    oil turning rancid. Then then machinists
    break out in a rash depending on the product.

    So some but not all. The addition of anti-oxidants
    correct storage and compounding can greatly
    increase the shelf life.
    onimaru55 and Obie like this.

    I agree with "minATX", I tried the organic "herban cowboy" organic shaving soap and was dissapointed...

The oils and components have not traceability. In UK is better to use the Nanny's Silly soft shaving soaps, made from oils from organic farms. Or the Martin de Candre, made with only 5 ingredients and traceability and respect of the environment as company goals

    Try the soaps at Handmade Naturals by Deb . I have the frankincense soap and it lathers up beautifully.
