Osma Shaving Soap Puck in Plastic Jar

I’ve been using this soap for years. Don’t need anything else! Slick long lasting lather. Best worked up on the face, not in a bowl or scuttle. Just wet fingertips, rub it on top of the cake, take a wet brush, shake out the water and then load your brush to make a thick paste. Start applying that to your skin adding a few drops of water occasionally as you go along. The lather will just bloom from there. Makes an amazing lather. Pleasant non-perfume smell that does not hang around after the shave. Alum leaves face refreshed and even prevents little weepers. One cake lasts a LONG time. If you have only one soap, this is the one to have!!!

A natural product and formula to moisturize and provide an enjoyable shave, of good quality

Compared to my usual Proraso for sensitive skin (white tub) same blade/razor: Lathered really well (better) and easily but did not seem as slick when shaving BUT had no irritation and fewer nicks (using what I consider an aggressive blade). Amount of product appeared to be a lot less than a tub of Proraso but considering that this is a hard dry puck with less water, you might be coming out ahead. Will continue to use and get a better impression but for now, happy with the purchase and would consider buying again. Would prefer to buy without the plastic container but individual puck was out of stock.

Osma is an interesting soap because its alum base. It takes a bit of experimenting to get the right amount of water on the brush to work up a decent lather (hint: it doesn't take very much), but once you hit the sweet spot you can get a great shave with Osma. It has a pleasant light scent and leaves your face feeling nice and toned because of the alum.
