Description

Product Overview

Stay Traditional is the citrus one in the Officina Artigiana range. Grapefruit leads, softened by lemon peel, over peach and wild strawberries. The centre turns ozonic and saline and it closes on white musk, so it is brighter and more modern than the name suggests.

The manufacturer puts 40% of the formula into five oils, jojoba, argan, almond, grape seed and castor, with shea butter and coconut oil alongside. That is an unusually high oil content for a shaving soap and it is what you feel as slickness under the blade.

Key Features

  • 40% of the formula is five fine oils: jojoba, argan, almond, grape seed and castor
  • Shea butter and coconut oil in the base as well

  • Ozonic and saline through the middle, closing on white musk
  • 150 ml glass jar, wide enough to load a brush straight from it
  • Heat-treated five times in five mixing stages

What This Soap Does

A soft soap loads onto a wet brush in seconds where a hard puck needs a minute of swirling, and it still builds the dense, structured lather a tube cream cannot. The high oil content here is the difference you notice second: the lather stays slick rather than drying out partway through the shave.

Officina Artigiana builds these around the oils rather than around the fragrance. The mixture is heat-treated five times, in five separate mixing stages, which is what gives a soft soap this much body without turning it waxy.

Who This Is Best For

Citrus scents
Grapefruit and lemon peel rather than a traditional barbershop accord.
Slickness
40% oils, which is high for a shaving soap.
Brush users
A wide glass jar that a brush loads straight from.

How To Lather It

Soak the brush in warm water and shake it out. Load straight from the jar with a circular motion for twenty to thirty seconds, then build the lather on the face or in a bowl, adding water a few drops at a time until it turns glossy and holds a peak.

These load faster than a hard puck. Take less soap than you would from a puck and add water sooner.

Care and Storage

Close the jar after use and keep it somewhere dry. Do not leave standing water on the surface. Stored closed, a shaving soap keeps for years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it a soap or a cream?
A soft soap. It is loaded with a wet brush like a soap rather than squeezed from a tube, but it is far softer than a hard puck. The manufacturer uses both words for it.
What does it smell like?
Citrusy: grapefruit softened by lemon peel over peach and wild strawberries, turning ozonic and saline in the middle and closing on white musk.
What is in it?
Aqua (Water), Stearic Acid, Cocos Nucifera Oil, Castor Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Parfum (Fragrance), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Oil, Vitis Vinifera Seed Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Limonene, Geraniol, Citronellol, Citral.
Does it contain lanolin?
No. There is no lanolin in the published ingredient list.
How big is the jar?
150 ml, in glass.
Which brush should I use?
Any. A soft soap does not need the backbone a hard puck does, so badger, boar and synthetic all work.
Why is the oil content mentioned?
Because it is unusually high. The manufacturer puts 40% of the formula into five oils, and that is what keeps the lather slick rather than letting it dry out during the shave.
Where is it made?
Made by Barbieri Uniti S.r.l. in Italy.
