HAGS: Have A Great Shave - ischiapp - 10-25-2022

Artisan from Athens (Greece), he has a well-formulated production.

Relatively simple, but intelligent INCI.
Four lines of semi-hard soaps:
• Guinness
• Vegan
• Mutton
• Donkey

Three aftershave lines:
• Lotion
• Balm
• Toner

At first glance I was struck by Mutton and Toner.
The first for the richness of noble fats, with the addition of secondary lubricants.
The second for the strong soothing components, associated with film-forming and nutrients.
For someone like me who has delicate skin, it is certainly interesting.

Another detail that I appreciate is the precision.
Both of the site, with all the useful details.
Both labels, with the logo of the line.

It is also easily available in some specialized shops.
At prices correctly positioned for quality.

Nice review. Thanks!!

A Guinness based shaving soap.  That sounds interesting
Has there ever been a shaving soap made with beer as a component?

I don't remember one. But that does not mean anything. Lol

Yes, using beer in the the place of water (or mixed with).

This maker has founded his business on this concept.

I've tried a couple of beer-based soaps.
Nice, but I prefer other formulas.
With less water-ish stuff.

I ordered one of the HAGS Guinness Base soaps (HELLFIRE CLUB), also the Vegan based CONCLUSION. Both are coming from The Razor Company. They stock most of the HAG shaving soaps. Bought them last week during Black Friday sale. Got 15% off so I saved a few bucks.

On BF no shops in Italy had Mutton base and toner.
I was pointing the Soberano de Barberias.
I love the fragrance of the original.
