Group Buy - Vreto Soap

[JayGee]

Well, what can I say...

A-ma-zing!

The best soap I have ever used by some margin.
Everything is perfect for me.
How is this performance possible in a veg soap?? My favourites are tallow usually (p&b, OSP, valobra).

The super-clean post shave feel with no tightness whatsoever, how is that possible?

I need to recalibrate...

Thank you @Goran.v & thank you @Rowlers

Thank you @Goran.v & thank you @Rowlers

So pleased you like it @JayGee
Pretty much my feelings too, the only soap that compares for me is Jabonman Premium Tallow. And then in think I prefer Vreto, as the Tallow smell doesn't over power the scent...

 

[Mr Bigmem]

How are folks finding the standard slip and glide, and residual slickness of the soaps? And how are you all finding post wash off scent?

 

[RedSteve]

Has anyone still to receive their soaps? I haven't gotten mine yet but Goran did say 2 weeks was a possibility so I'm not too worried.

Slip, slide and cushion - top of the league for me. I'd gladly sell all my other soaps and use Vreto, but where would be the fun in that!
The scent doesn't linger post shave for me, but it is plenty strong enough during the shave.
Post shave moisturising is superb, in fact I have gone without moisturiser the last few shaves..
HTH..

Doth utheth abbweviations mesa no knows, mbasa! HATH?

I otherwise concur, it's a terrific soap. Used my third one today, Opium. Lovely scent, and I believe I found the perfect bloom time and soap to water ratio.

So I gotta say Opium is my fav scent as well, but i'm really not getting the slip or residual slickness others have reported. I've twigged its gotta be really high in the coconut oil as i'm even getting drag if I rinse the razor mid pass and try to clean up anywhere that has not got a fully reapplied lather. Zero residual. I've even tried watery lather thinking i'd overloaded. Its worse with the vanilla coco. And i'm getting the dreaded carbolic scent post wash off that is herald of high stearic acid. dam I wanted it to agree with me

Well, if you found it perfect it'd be the first soap I've heard of that EVERYONE thinks is perfect.

If you would like to trade or sell them on, let me have 1st refusal, please?

We all have different skin types, water etc. In a similar way, LPL just doesn't work for me at all, others (whose opinion I hold in high regard) love it.

Lol not looking for perfect just trying to avoid most of the negative traits. And by no means did I say its a bad soap, I was just sad it didn't agree with me. And as always I know YMMV. Strange how no one gets the characteristics I get

That's what I meant by prefect. I can't get on with Haslinger or Wickhams Super Smooth but they are favourites for many.

A soap don't have to be perfect for me to like it, or even keep it in my rotation.
