Saponificio Varesino - 80th Anniversary Shaving Soap, Special Edition Beta 4.3
This soap was released for Saponificio Varesino's 80th anniversary and first shown at Esxence 2025. It keeps the Beta 4.3 base and adds PlantSil, a 100% plant-based ingredient. PlantSil leaves a slick, protective film on the skin, similar to silicone, so the razor glides with less friction.
PlantSil also helps skin hold moisture and helps calm redness, which makes this soap a good fit for sensitive skin. The triple-milled puck builds a dense, stable lather and comes in an aluminum tin.
Fragrance notes: bergamot, orange, lemon, grapefruit, lavender, patchouli, cashmere wood, guaiac wood, ambergris, cedarwood, myrrh, vanilla.
