- Traditional lathering shaving soap
- Tallow-based
- Scented with fir, berries, mint, & menthol
Chris Bartek is the soapmaker behind Ballenclaugh Soaps out of Wilber, Nebraska. You get small batch soaps from small-town America. While he has pretty much been flying under the radar, he has been offering soaps since about 2013. With its phenomenal ingredients list and resulting lather, it is a great value. Their unique line of scents is both sophisticated, invigorating, and unorthodox all at the same time. West Coast Shaving is excited to be the exclusive retailer for Ballenclaugh.
This tallow-based soap is easy to load and lather. Loaded with castor oil, palm kernel seed oil, camellia seed oil, soybean oil as well as kokum & cocoa butters, it produces a rich, creamy lather about the volume and consistency of whipped cream. The inclusion of silk fibers and bentonite clay adds surprising slickness for a thick soap.
This seasonal scent is a winter wonderland in a soap. Notes of bright berry combines with fir and menthol for an experience as big as the great outdoors. It's like bottling (or tubbing) your sledding experience of evergreens, winter berries, and ice crystals and then shaving with it. Epic!
