1. Soap Type

We’re talking about the types of soap in terms of the manufacturing process. It can be triple-milled, which means that the soap was grated, melted and pressed into a new piece. This technique evaporates the excessive moisture from the soap, which makes it milder, lasting longer and generally better. Also, there’s croap soap, which is creamy and soft thanks to the portion of moisture it contains. And, finally, we have semi-hard soap, which is something between triple-milled and croap soap.

All things considered, what is the difference between shaving soap and regular soap? And can you get away with regular soap? Unfortunately, the answer to the latter question is no. As for the difference, it is in ingredients and effect. Soap is specially made for your sensitive and gentle facial skin. Thus, it not only makes your shaving comfortable by producing abundant leather but hydrates, soothes and nourishes your skin as well.

2. List Of Ingredients

One of our go-to skin care tips would be to always check the list of ingredients. There are three main types of agents that are used as a base for soap: glycerin, tallow and oil. Glycerin base is considered the most gentle among all three, especially on sensitive skin. Oil base may include coconut, palm, argan and other oils. Finally, tallow base is made of animal fat.
