Van Yulay’s makes a croap shaving soap. It is not a cream nor a hard puck. It is in between soft & hard.
Van Yulay whips up into a yogurt like cream lather in just a few minutes. Â Enjoy a rich and creamy protective lather with skin protective loaded with enriched vitamins and amino acids. We make each soap with your skin in mind. Ph balanced to have a smooth and irritation free shave. Each soap is piped in beautifully in an 8 oz. container.
How to use:
Soak your shave brush with hot water for a few minutes before your shave. Apply a warm, damp towel to your face (or splash face with warm water) for prep and apply another hot towel to your face for a few seconds. After the brush has soaked, gently squeeze out excess water. Apply the soap to the brush in fast, circular motions to coat the bristles well. Shave and rinse face thoroughly with cool water.
For an optimal experience, finish with Van Yulay’s After Shave Splash followed by an After-Shave Balm by Van Yulay.
Shaving Soap Contents:
- Tallow – has been used as an effective skincare ingredient for centuries! As your skin need all vitamins to replenish the daily lives, tallow has Vitamin A, D, E and K, as well as Omega – fatty acids.
- Emu Oil – contains high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, therefore it is able to easily penetrate the skin’s barriers for deep moisturization. When compared to other types of oil, emu oil had 2-4 times greater penetration of the skin. These effects show that emu oil is able to moisturize and rejuvenate the skin extremely effectively.
- Silk Amino Acids – This silk forms a natural layer over the skin, keeping moisture locked in and harsh conditions out, leaving skin protected and well-nourished.
- Babassu Oil is an antioxidant and will help destroy the free radicals that cause premature aging and cancer. The oil is naturally anti-inflammatory and is often used to treat skin conditions such as eczema.
- Coconut Fatty Acid – excellent lathering and conditioning when used in shave soap.
- Bentonite Clay – Gives an extra creaminess and silkiness to the shave soap. Generally, white clay’s natural absorbing, detoxifying and exfoliating properties makes it an indispensable ingredient in shaving products.

Great Bay Rum Shaving Soap! Love the smell, Bowl lathers easy with our hard water here in Illinois. Plenty of slip with this soap no nicks. Face feels great even hours after the shave. This soap pairs great with the Bay Rum After Shave Splash! Get you some!

Recently, I had the chance to purchase some samples of Van Yulay Shave soaps. I chose to go with sample size so I could try out more scents and find what I like without plonking down a lot of money and possibly end up with scents that I detest and would then have to find a way to pass them along. One of the scents that I chose was Bay Rum because the second shave soap that I ever bought was a Bay Rum and it is, I thought anyway, a known quantity. Boy was I wrong!
When I opened the container, the scent felt a bit faint. However, after I scooped some out and wet it in the bowl and went to work making a lather. The complex scent became stronger. Not a punch in the nose, but more of a pleasant “Gibbs’ Slap” to the nose that woke me up. The soap lathered easily, was quite slick and had plenty of cushion as I shaved both my face and my head. Ms. Monica did a fantastic job with this scent. I look forward to shaving with the other samples that I bought.
Every artisan worth their salt has their own spin on Bay Rum, Ms. Monica knocks this one out of the park!
