Lanolin heavy shaving creams?

[Vacumatic]

Some caution may be needed. I blocked the U bend on a wash basin due to a lanolin based shaving soap. A plumber was needed, first question he asked was about shaving soap.

Friends,

Im a particular fan of Lanolin in shaving creams, as I find it quite protective and moisturizing for my skin. So far ive tried Ach Brito Lavanda, Lea classic sensitive in a tin which contain lanolin and they are great creams.. But my gosh the Musgo Real shaving cream line clearly has way more in it.. my face feels literally the softest ive ever felt post shave, even without after shave.. this is crazy stuff...

So my question here is.. im not a big fan of its price tag.. is there anything out there literally that out there that can compete in terms of lanolin content? for the Musgo real the lanolin is way higher up on the ingredients list (more of it). I have not found anything else out there as loaded.

I welcome your suggestions if any ..


Thank you

Lanolin fan here --- Give Myrsol soaps a try, plenty of lanolin goodness .... though it comes in a tub and not a tube.

I too am a big fan of Musgo and yeah it is pricey .... I'd also speculate that they are slowly getting out of the shave business ... they've slowly been whittling down their range shave products. Too bad as I think they have the best cream on the market...

thank you for this .. ill give it a look!

yea so far ive never had anything make my face feel like this post shave.. its ridiculous ... Proraso red is also decent but its the Shea in that one which is also a great ingredient

I'm a big Stirling Varen fan. Not sure, but I think it contains some lanolin. Too lazy to climb upstairs to look, though.

Yes sir, I believe all the Stirlings contain lanolin except Unscented With Beeswax.

 

[Talal]

Thank you for the added recommendations!

The haverford looks great from the Stirling wow.. and beef tallow in it too! im gonna get this

You might give Mitchell Wool Fat a try. It has been reformulated, but lanolin is definitely one of the ingredients left. And presumably plenty of it as it has a history stemming from sheep.

Another one would be Haslinger Sheep Soap.

Cheers,

Thank you i have seen the mitchell wool fat but i really enjoyed the ingredients list of the stirling! i got the haveford one

All three varieties of Godrej shaving cream contains lanolin.

 

[Brutus]

I do enjoy the Lea classic in the tin, but it does not have as much Lanolin as Musgo im fairly certain.

Musgo does not contain lanolin, but Musgo Real does.

Both are made by Ach. Brito, but Musgo and Musgo Real are different product lines.
As the names are confusing, referring to Musgo Real just as Musgo only adds to the confusion.

Thank you for this yes i mean Musgo REAL , for sure

and it makes sense they make lavanda too, another lanolin cream but has notable less of the stuff in there.

looking at myrsol shaving creams i dont see much in terms of explaining the scents.. can you give me a little bit of a run down on what you know? the F Extra for example is that more moisturizing? the local place here has the don carlos scent and coconut and mint only.. not sure which to grab..

if the don carlos is more like a "perfume" or colone id prob skip it.. the coconut mint sounds unique and interesting , kind of like that malibu liquor i guess?

Really like the smell of Haverford.
Works really well as a deskunker as well.

@JCinPA - Varen is tops for me
Yummm… Sheep Tallow…

Maybe just me, but I’ve kinda a love - hate with the original tallow formula. To which I’ve moved on a while back with Haslinger.

Haslinger’s Schafmilch is solid, be aware their pucks are on the smaller side

I have a bunch of the Myrsol soaps - to my nose none of them have particularly strong scents, in fact I find them fairly subdued.... as in 2 out of 10 strength, which I prefer. None of the soaps leave scent after washing, but the post-shave feel is lovely.

The 'Blue' (which I like) is the most perfumy of the lot. I have the Don Carlos which is fresh bright with a citrus note. The F/Extra is along the lines of Floid Genuine .. kind of spicy barbershop. I do not have the coconut mint.

If you have a local place go have a whiff ... If you want something quite neutral and not perfumy at all try the Antesol or K which is peppermint.

As always YMMV, but I'd give it a try if you are looking for lanolin.

i went with the coconut mint as no one i know has tried it either! will report soon

and yes a light scent is what im after for sure.. im quite keen to try this well reputed brand

the sterling tub has arrived the haverford.. it looks and feels really "Fatty" and will likely be a great shape, but man am i not a fan of this very strong , very synthetic smelling vanilla .. will give it a proper test run but it may be too "perfumey" for me.. a shame..
