Elevate Your Shave with a Quality Shaving Soap

Shaving soap is a prime example of a classic men’s grooming essential that’s been overshadowed by its canned cousins, even though, in several respects, the newer product is actually worse than what it attempts to replace! The fact of the matter is the only real difference between bar shaving soap and canned shaving cream is water, some added stabilisers and chemicals, and a bit of extra convenience, but as you will learn in this guide, there is at least one factor in which shaving soaps are the clear winner!

This guide will explain exactly what shaving soap is, reveal how it differs from and is largely superior to canned shaving cream, teach you how to find a quality shaving soap, and share with you some of the Gentleman’s Gazette’s house favourites.

This is actually quite a thorough guide into shaving soaps specifically, rather than delving into shaving creams as well. LOL I see shaving soaps are apparently approved by the USA TSA as they are not aerosolized creams (just remember your blades have to travel in the luggage hold).

Regular bath soaps do not have the higher fat and glycerine content necessary to ensure the best possible shaving experience. Also, if choosing between using a regular soap or a shaving cream for shaving, you should always use the shaving cream.
