Description of Shaving Soap:
Van Yulay’s makes a croap shaving soap. It is not a cream nor a hard puck. It is in between soft & hard.
Van Yulay whips up into a yogurt like cream lather in just a few minutes. Enjoy a rich and creamy protective lather with skin protective loaded with enriched vitamins and amino acids. We make each soap with your skin in mind. Ph balanced to have a smooth and irritation free shave. Each soap is piped in beautifully in an 8 oz. container.
How to use:
Soak your shave brush in a bowl or cup filled with hot water for a few minutes before your shave. Apply a warm, damp towel to your face (or splash face with warm water) to prep your face for shaving. Apply another hot towel to your face for a few seconds. After the brush has soaked, gently squeeze out excess water, still leaving the brush mostly wet. Apply the brush to the soap in fast, repeated circular motions to coat the brush bristles well. Shave and rinse face thoroughly with cool water. For an optimal experience, finish with Van Yulay After Shave Splash then followed with your After-Shave Balm by Van Yulay.
Shaving Soap Contents:
- Tallow – has been used as an effective skincare ingredient for centuries! As your skin need all vitamins to replenish the daily lives, tallow has Vitamin A, D, E and K, as well as Omega – fatty acids.
- Emu Oil – contains high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, therefore it is able to easily penetrate the skin’s barriers for deep moisturization. When compared to other types of oil, emu oil had 2-4 times greater penetration of the skin. These effects show that emu oil is able to moisturize and rejuvenate the skin extremely effectively.
- Silk Amino Acids – This silk forms a natural layer over the skin, keeping moisture locked in and harsh conditions out, leaving skin protected and well-nourished.
- Babassu Oil is an antioxidant and will help destroy the free radicals that cause premature aging and cancer. The oil is naturally anti-inflammatory and is often used to treat skin conditions such as eczema.
- Coconut Fatty Acid – excellent lathering and conditioning when used in shave soap.
- Bentonite Clay – Gives an extra creaminess and silkiness to the shave soap. Generally, white clay’s natural absorbing, detoxifying and exfoliating properties makes it an indispensable ingredient in shaving products.
- Silk Amino Acid is a unique silk peptide and one of the best at reducing fine lines and other signs of aging. Aside from the amazing texture of silk extracts, silk amino acids contain properties which allow it to rejuvenate skin tone, reduce wrinkles and hydrate your skin tissues to protect from free radicals.

Soap is nice and slick and lathers easily. A great green Irish tweed just wish it was a little stronger scented.

I recently ordered Van Yulay’s Green Irish Tweed shave soap, and while I haven’t received it yet (a friend is forwarding it to me), I already know I’m in for a treat. This isn’t my first time using Van Yulay products, and they always deliver on both scent and performance, so I feel confident in reviewing before receiving.
Green Irish Tweed is inspired by Creed’s legendary cologne of the same name, and if it’s anything like the cologne, I’m expecting a clean, green, and sophisticated scent. Think of a morning walk through the countryside with hints of fresh-cut grass, flowers, and a subtle woody finish. Monica at Van Yulay has a real gift for crafting scents that are spot-on without being overpowering, so I have no doubt this one will be fantastic.
Performance-wise, Van Yulay soaps are top-notch. They lather up beautifully, with plenty of cushion and slickness to ensure a smooth, comfortable shave. The post-shave feel is always excellent—your skin feels soft and hydrated. This soap is bound to add a touch of luxury to my morning routine.
I’ll be giving this one a test run soon, so stay tuned. You can look forward to seeing it in action on my YouTube channel, Mully Shaves! Check it out at http://www.youtube.com/@MullyShaves. Highly recommend……..Van Yulay products. Hehe!
