Saponificio Varesino - Manna di Sicilia Shaving Soap, Special Edition Beta 4.3
Saponificio Varesino Manna di Sicilia Shaving Soap is a special edition presented in an anthracite-colored aluminum tin with a metallic label in antique brass. This triple-milled hard soap is intended for use with a shaving brush.
The soap uses the 'Beta 4.3' formulation, designed to improve lubrication, protection during the shave, and post-shave feel.
Manna is the sap extracted from Ash trees in the sun-kissed island of Sicily. For this collection, the manna is sourced from the Park of Madonie, between Castelbuono and Pollina and offers a luxurious softness and comfort after shaving.
The renewed formula includes larch tree extract to reduce trans-epidermal water loss, ideal for dry skin, and a vegetal compound based on castor oil to enhance glide and razor performance.
Fragrance: Citrus top notes of bergamot and orange lead into aromatic sage and fenugreek. The heart includes honeyed warmth, soft tobacco, and subtle florals like jasmine and geranium. The base settles into woody and amber tones with patchouli, cedarwood, benzoin resin, and guaiac wood.
Formula Highlights:
- 100% vegetable (except fragrance)
- No palm oil
- No preservatives, chelators, or synthetic antioxidants
- No petroleum, mineral oils, dyes, parabens
- No EDTA, SLS, BHT, SLES, or PEG
This formula is rich in natural active ingredients offering softening, moisturizing, regenerating, soothing, antibacterial, and toning properties.
Usage Tips:
- Cover the soap surface with a thin veil of hot water for a few minutes
- Soak a badger brush, rinse, then pour the bloom water onto the knot
