Mike’s Natural Soaps has relocated to NJ. It took much longer than expected for our belongings to be shipped across the country, but it seems the shipping containers have finally arrived. Next week we will be setting up shop in our new home. I will start shipping orders as soon as possible, but please bear with me as we get settled. Thanks for your patience and support!
Tallow, Lanolin, & Kokum Butter Shaving Soap Jars
This soap is the real deal. Tallow is the main ingredient, regarded by many shaving enthusiasts (myself included) as yielding the creamiest, slickest, and most protective lather possible. In addition, this soap is rich in vegetable glycerin, kokum butter, shea butter, and avocado oil. It also contains kaolin clay, which creates a slick buffer between your skin and the blade. The icing on the cake is lanolin, a waxy substance derived from the wool of sheep and a fantastic conditioner and humectant. This soap will provide an effortless and downright decadent shave that will leave your skin feeling soft, supple, and smooth. Each polypropylene recyclable jar contains about 5 ounces of soap. (N.B. this is not a guarantee; some jars will contain somewhat more or less than five ounces of soap).
ingredients: Distilled water saponified tallow (beef) and stearic acid; vegetable glycerin; saponified kokum butter, avocado oil, and shea butter; lanolin, fragrance and/or essential oil(s); saponified coconut oil; kaolin clay, vitamin E.
Lavandin & Eucalyptus: A subtle scent similar to lavender, but with a slightly more camphorous, slightly less floral quality. More invigorating than calming/soothing.
Lime: Simple, sweet, citrusy invigorating lime
Orange, Cedarwood, Black Pepper: While orange is the dominant scent here, a judicious blend of cedarwood and black pepper is easily discerned and provides additional complexity.
Peppermint & Rosemary: A minty, fresh, and herbaceous combo that imparts a mild cooling sensation to the skin.
Rose, Patchouli, Cedarwood: Sweet and delicate rose geranium rounds out a soft, woody base of patchouli & cedarwood.
Unscented: I add no fragrance or essential oils to this soap. It smells simply like the ingredients of which it is composed.
Vetiver: The vetiver essential oil used in this soap hails from Haiti. It's deep, earthy, smoky, and just a little sweet.
Bay Rum: Spicy bay leaf combined with bergamot and a dab of vanilla.
Bergamot, Orange, Ylang-ylang: Citrus top notes supported by the deep, sweet, sultry aroma of the ylang-ylang flower.

Honey & Grapefruit: This soap is scented with essential oil and real honey and has a subtle, yet pleasant mixture of sweet and dry aromas. Caramelized honey is most noticeable in the jar, but a subtle grapefruit scent comes out when lathered.
Out Of Stock
Hungarian Lavender: I've acquired a Hungarian lavender essential oil that I'm very enthusiastic about. It's flowery, herbaceous, earthy, and fresh.

Lemongrass & Eucalyptus: Dry, lemony, and invigorating.

Pine & Cedarwood: This scent is simultaneously invigorating and warm. The dominant note is pine, which is backed up and rounded out by a cedarwood base.
