tallow soaps

[TThunder]

Does anyone know of any soaps out there that are tallow based like
penhaligon english fern....I have a real passion for the tallow based
soaps , especially after being lucky enough to get one from bullgoose
last month....they just seem to be a complete fit to my face///moisturizing,
slickness, feel, and the whole enchilada////thanks in advance for any help

Arko is the one that comes to mind first.

Tabac, Strop Shoppe (certain varieties), RazoRock Artisan series are some tallow soaps that I really enjoyed. A lot of shave sticks contain tallow, and work wonderfully as soaps once grated or mashed into a bowl. Speick, Palmolive, and Arko sticks all contain tallow.

There is a good list in the Wiki. Haven't used all of them, but I'd have trouble picking a favorite.

I know that Arko is tallow based.

Cella.

One of my favorites.

thank-you all very much////never even gave a thought to Wiki....i am not a stick
person by any means but guess i could mold it into one of my shave cups////again
thank you all////you all don't know or realize how greatful it makes one feel to get
such great responses....though I have been a wet shaver since i was a weee pup
there is still so much one doesn't know or has forgotten.....two months til i turn
67 but i learn something new here every day and enjoy the companionship...thanks
again.. duke

There are probably a hundred. Personally, I don't think it matters much. I've used several vegetable based soaps that easily equal any tallow I've tried.

 

[Niles]

DR Harris and MWF are my favourites.

I would also add Speick stick (which I grate into a container).

MWF, DR Harris (arlington and windsor) and Speick are my top of the top tallow soaps.

1.MWF
2.Valobra
3.Mike's Hungarian Lavander

 

[john parker]

To the list add Queen Charlotte Soaps.

I'd be curious some vintage,tallow based soaps as well.

 

[wilsonent]

Vintage you ask, Old Spice of course. Can still find it on internet auction sites. Still works after years on the shelf.

Strop Shoppe (tallow) is my personal go-to but I think Speick and Palmolive (stick) are both excellent runner-ups.
