shaving soap, pack of 5

Love them. Proper 'old skool' shaving soap. And a lot cheaper than the dish alternatives. Took me a while to realise you have to lather the brush rather than attempting to rub the stick on your face; once you figure that out, you're golden. The scent is 'manly' as well (not 'chemical'), instead of the over fragranced stuff.

Having used various shaving products over the years I’ve found Arko shaving soap the best ever. The lather is superb resulting in the closest shave and no skin irritation. Highly recommended.

I used an a plastic round box from my previous shaving soap. Then slowly, using only the heat of my hands pressed and molded the bar in to the box. That was March, now August and I still haven`t finished the first bar. What can I say? That is the most economical shaving aid (foam, soap , gel etc.) I have ever used. My facial hair is very hard and I always had problems while shaving. However, this simple Turkish barber soap (Classic) makes the shaving a pleasure. Furthermore, my wife is very happy with the result.

Shaving sticks seem to be very hard to get these days. However these Arko sticks are great We’ve also had the tub. They smell very nice.

If you've been using the palm olive shave sticks and now can't get them these are for you. They are far superior and a larger bar to boot. Very very impressed so far.

As a staple product this is great value. It doesn't have high end fragrances etc. at this price but it smells fine, foams extremely well and as it's squidgy it can be moulded into any shaving dish.

Best shave ever. Would give 6 stars. Some people have commented on the scent, I personally like the old fashioned barbershop smell.

Seems to last forever . Doe's lather up good

This soap is all you need for the perfect shave. If you don't fancy lots of different fragrances, this soap will provide slick, protection and a fresh feeling on the face. The smell is old style basic barber, but it is tallow-based, and you can use it anywhere. I keep one as stick for travel, and one I moulded into a bowl for home use. I'm amazed at the versatility, and the price for quality.

Es un clásico. Con la brocha se genera facilmente mucha espuma de bastante buena calidad. Desliza bien la hoja de afeitar. Una vez dado, dura lo suficiente en la cara para completar tranquilamente el afeitado. En el post afeitado se siente la piel hidratada. El aroma no es precisamente rebuscado, huele simplemente y bastante a jabón. Los hay mejores, pero para superar sus propiedades tienes que multiplicar bastantes veces su precio. El formato de barra viene bien para viaje por ejemplo. También puedes tomar una o dos de las barritas y pasarlo, dándole forma, a un recipiente redondo que busques de unos 9 cms de ancho y unos 3 o 4 de alto, donde podrás cargar la brocha cómodamente. Para ello se puede laminar la barrita en tiras finas (con un cortapatatas o un pela patatas por ejemplo) y se prensa con los dedos en un recipiente de ese tipo, es bastante dúctil y se hace fácilmente. La relación calidad-cantidad-precio es insuperable.

This soap works very well. Very easy to lather. The smell is hard to describe. It's lemon, basically. Some people compare it to citronella candles. It's not quite that- citronella has a waxy, chemically, hardware store smell. Arko isn't chemically or waxy at all. It's warm, sweet, and lemony. Kinda syrupy. Not fresh and zesty lemon, but candy lemon. The intended use for a shaving stick like this is to rub it on your face and then use a wet brush to lather. Rather, I cut the stick into little chunks with a pair of scissors and smush it into a ramekin (you can use a cheese grater but I didn't want to get shaving soap on my cheese grater). Add some water on top, swirl with wet brush, and build lather on your face for about 60 seconds. A mug isn't necessary. It works just as well as my other soaps which are many times more expensive. I think everyone who shaves should try this soap. It's extremely cheap. This particular lot is $10 for five sticks. Each stick should last about three months of daily shaving, maybe more. That's fifteen months supply for only $10. I call that economical. The 12-pack is even more better, that will last you the rest of your natural life. Try this stuff, you'll like it.
