Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes YAQI Smoking Aces Artisan Shaving Soap different from regular shaving creams?

A: Unlike mass-market shaving creams, the YAQI Smoking Aces Artisan Shaving Soap is handcrafted using a premium soap base created in collaboration with Master Soap Creations. It features luxury ingredients like Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, D-Panthenol, and Tussah Silk that deeply moisturise and protect skin while providing superior blade cushioning. The result is a baby-bottom smooth (BBS) shave with an incredible signature scent experience.

Q: Is YAQI Smoking Aces Shaving Soap suitable for sensitive skin?

A: Yes, the formula is free from high-concern chemicals and uses pure essential oils along with skin-calming ingredients like Vegetable Glycerin and Bentonite Clay. However, if you have known fragrance sensitivities, we recommend patch testing before full use, as this product does contain fragrance oil as part of its signature scent blend.

Q: How long does a 170g tub of YAQI Artisan Shaving Soap last?

A: For an average daily shaver, a 170g artisan shaving soap tub can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months depending on how much lather you load per shave. Because the soap is concentrated and lathers richly, a little goes a long way — making it excellent value for a luxury grooming product.

Q: What type of shaving brush works best with this soap?

A: YAQI Smoking Aces Artisan Shaving Soap works beautifully with both synthetic and natural hair (badger or boar) shaving brushes. A medium to large knot size will help you load lather quickly and apply it generously. Wet the brush well before loading to achieve the richest, most cushioning lather.
