Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of lather does the YAQI Ouds Artisan Shaving Soap produce?

A: The YAQI Ouds Artisan Shaving Soap produces a thick, dense, and creamy lather thanks to its premium soap base featuring shea butter, bentonite clay, and tallow. This lather provides excellent cushioning and blade lubrication, helping you achieve a Baby Butt Smooth (BBS) shave with minimal irritation.

Q: Is the YAQI Ouds Shaving Soap suitable for sensitive skin?

A: Yes, the YAQI Ouds soap is formulated with skin-friendly ingredients including shea butter, vegetable glycerin, and pure essential oils designed to moisturise and protect the skin during shaving. However, if you have known fragrance sensitivities, we recommend patch testing first, as the soap does contain fragrance oils and essential oils.

Q: What does the Ouds shaving soap smell like?

A: The Ouds fragrance is inspired by the world of luxury oud perfumery. It opens with bright top notes of pear, raspberry, and saffron, then softens into a floral heart of Bulgarian rose and orange flower, before settling into a rich, warm base of natural oud oil and patchouli. The result is a deeply luxurious, long-lasting, and sensual scent that makes every shave feel like a special occasion.

Q: How long will a 170g puck of YAQI shaving soap last?

A: A 170g artisan shaving soap puck is very generous — for most shavers using a brush daily, a puck of this size typically lasts between 3 to 6 months depending on how much lather you build per session. This makes it excellent value for a premium artisan shaving soap.

Q: Can I use this shaving soap without a brush?

A: The YAQI Ouds Artisan Shaving Soap is specifically designed for use with a shaving brush (synthetic, boar, or badger) to build the rich lather that makes it so effective. While you could rub the puck directly on your wet face, using a brush will give you significantly better lather volume, cushioning, and a more enjoyable shave experience.
