Questions & Answers

Can this product be used without a shaving brush for good lathering performance? Could you rub it directly on your face to achieve the desired results?

The method I use does not use my brushes, and I find it to work well. Rub the stick on your face while still wet (I only peel back about 3/4" of the wrapper from the stick at a time) after you've finished showering. Make sure your fingertips are wet before lathering Please re-read To moisten and lather, wet your fingers as needed. By lathering this way, you will get plenty of lather. This method has been used by me for about a year now It has been about half a year. I like this stuff a lot. Shaving cream in a can is way better than this.

There is a lot of information about Arko being Considering these conditions, would it be easier to create a good lather using a boar hair brush rather than a badger brush?

I love Arko! It lathers wonderfully with virtually any brush and works well with any size! Although natural hair brushes are the best, they are also the most expensive. I use a Parker silver tip badger brush because the water here is hard. For a 3-day wash, it has enough lather It is time for a pass shave! I disassemble the soap and cut it into 1/8 inch pieces. Once I have pressed them into the bottom of my shaving mug, I wash it with water. As a shaving soap user, I have tried a lot of brands. Arko is the only one

What size are these sticks? Can the old Tabac pushup container fit them?

You might have to squeeze it in there, but it's okay.

When it is melted and the fragrance is added, can the mold be used?

It can't be heated and then poured into a mold like other soaps. The Tallow content of this product will cause it to burn and scorch. Put this in a shaving bowl after shredding it with a cheese grater.

An Arko classic that deserves a place in your collection
4/5

I'm not surprised at all that Arko has so many reviews. This is a bit complicated, so let's have a look at it a little more closely. A scale from 1 to 10 will be used Add up the 10 points and average it out. We will grade you according to the following categories The following factors are considered Price, Performance, Ease of Use, Travel Ability, Smell, and Price- on a scale of 1- 10 An overall score of 10 from me. The 12 pack I purchased was 15 when I bought it. With a purchase price of $25 and free shipping included, you will receive 12 sticks each weighing 75 grams for a total of 900 grams or 31 sticks. There are 7 ounces in it. I have seen 4 oz of soap sell for the same price or even more than that. It is indeed a huge plus that it is priced so low! In terms of performance, we need to consider A 10 out of 10 for Arko's shave stick As I have mentioned, I love what about this soap is that it is easy to make lather with it. This soap is made with tallow so it contains animal fats. Tallow based soap has the advantage of lathering well, which is known to be a benefit. It is also easy to customize this soap's lather by starting with a dryer brush and then adding water until the lather is the right consistency. It is important for me to have a good balance between slip and cushion in a lather. It was provided by Arko. Additionally, I pressed it into a container and used it as a stick to shave. In the stick form, it lathered well, but I preferred it in the container form, but we'll get to that later in the review. people make a deodorant stick out of this. It didn't work out too well with an empty stick of Speed Stick that I saved when I decided to order this because it is the density of modeling clay, which would require molding it into the regular deodorant stick container, but in a round deodorant stick it will work much The ease in which the product can be used - I'll give you another ten! There is a lot of customization available. The stick form in which it is packaged allows it to be used. The handle of the round deodorant container can then be attached to the rod in the center of the container by simply sticking it over the rod. As a result of the lather whipping up so thick and good, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to lather the soap on my face because it would be so Because this soap has a consistency similar to modeling clay, I transferred it to an empty tin I had lying As soon as I saw it, it was a shaving The machine is easy to load, easy to use, and can handle a substantial The following abilities are necessary to be able to travel My score is 7, and I recommend it. I bought this small round stick of shave soap that's the consistency of modeling clay and it's wrapped in a thick paper/foil. There are various forms of this product you can buy it as an individual puck, or you can find a mug or tin to store it in, but the shave stick is mostly used It wouldn't be okay for me to just throw away a dopp kit stick after opening. The fact that this can be inserted into any container you like is great, but I don't understand the implication that this "travel stick" is not I'm sure it would have gotten a higher score even if they had placed it in a ziploc baggie. In any case, it would have been protected, and there would have been a good barrier to secure other items in your dopp kit as well. It smells - Truth is, we can't avoid I believe that smells are the most subjective things in the universe. Wet shaving is something I know nothing about and I gave it to a group of people. Citrus and lavender combined is the scent we've decided upon by pretty much unanimous vote. Ivory soap that is very similar to the original. This lotion reminded me of the lotion my grandmother used to bring home from the hospital to her ailing parents. There was a strong smell to a medium strong smell. A bit more taming when left uncovered is better for me, but I really do My favorite scent is not strong enough to overpower me, but it is not overwhelming either. It is safe for my Niece who has the nose of a hound dog and is highly sensitive to smells and this soap does not irritate him at all. In addition to my sister and mom, I have asked almost a dozen people about wet shaving (none of them had heard of it before). scent of this body spray is significantly stronger than either that of van der hagen, Italian Barber, There's not a lot of noise, though. The scent is 7 out of 10 for me. On a scale of 500, it scored 445 out of 500. In other words, that is 89%, a B+. Personally, I'd score it a B, though I'd give it a B- for the following points A B or A might even work.

The best shaving soap out there
5/5

The shaving soap I use now is the same as what I used before I tried dozens of The Arko Shaving Soap Stick, commonly used in barbershops overseas, is a very old and traditional shaving soap. You can also buy Arko shaving creams that are more designed for use by consumers. There is more to this stick's purpose as a commercial tool. This lather is easy to apply with a shaving brush, and has a good lather. Despite its traditional use, the stick lasts for a year if I squish it in my shaving cup. This is an excellent shaving soap, all things considered. *An analysis of 1 Reviews 5 out of 5 stars It's fun for me to read a book 1 As it gives me an idea of the experience from the other side, I appreciate star reviews. In most cases, 1 is There is a reference to the packaging in star reviews. I like to pack, but I don't like moving. The sticks themselves originally sell for 50 cents or less, so you have to realize that! Barbershops are the target market for the wholesale package. There is no product packed as a gift for consumers nor for the purpose of gift giving. If you'd like a better product, you can order it online Alternatively, you can buy a tube or more of the packaged cream version for $5. *In summary, here are the steps involved in packaging the product For the price of one retail soap on the market, you will be able to buy a wholesale product that will last you for ten years or longer. It is obviously more expensive than the MSRP since it is shipped from Turkey to the USA and there are a lot of middlemen putting their own mark up on it. Overall it is still a great deal.

The topic of scent is one that is very much a matter of personal preference and everyone has their own preferences. The scent of Arko is similar to that of old school ivory, where it is clean, pure and refreshing. You will lose the scent if you leave the soap open for a while.

Outstanding performance, affordable price, and the scent is clean, soapy and barbershop-like
5/5

Arko can't really get more classic than that, can it? Lather this stuff up like Al Gore at a Tea Party rally, there's no comparison. When you rub it on, your stubble will abrade plenty of it from it. Then, just grab any crappy brush within shouting distance and it will explode into the richest, slickest lather you've ever had. How much water is too much? I don't see any issues, it still works well. How much water is too little? There's no need to worry about Arko, it has a job to do, and it will do it damn well. It seems that some people do not care for like," I mean "completely abhor. ". 1) It smells like plain, unperfumed soap There is no scent of citrus in the air, but maybe you can smell it. My reaction is that it smells like a soap factory next to a barbershop. A classic scent like that is always a joy to smell, and I look forward to smelling it once more. A big welcome is also due to the Arko man. I hope they don't change the label any time soon. You can shape it easily to a container if you prefer a container, and it is soft. Whenever I use deodorant, I twist the container up. Usually, I shove it into the container by hand the container's edges shave off some of it, so I use it to fill any remaining gaps, or I just stick the leftover onto the You can get a clean-up service if you are in need of one Organize your daily routine with Arko and you'll be amazed at the savings.
