There's donkey milk soap stuff - does someone make soap out of mare milk?
Yes, there is! The Goodfellas' Smile – Re Nero
There's also this one:
https://www.lainess.com/produit/savon-du-barbier-au-lait-de-jument-frais-bio-blue-pearl-200g/
I believe that it's produced by LPL
Oh, I saw that one in my Google search, but when I saw "asinerie" I stopped reading and thought it was just Google being "helpful".
They have both donkeys and horses, and they produce shaving soaps based on both (at first glance, I also assumed that everything was based on donkey milk, thus my question )
Why did itehaveto be TGS ? 😰
Do they make bad soap? I've never tried one
I repeatedly complained about the frag burn I got from TGS Amber Fougère – which was worse than what I had from Ariana and Evans. The soap is nothing special, and I will abstain.
Ah. I remember now, but didn't make the connection without help😅
Good enough for me. I'll probably abstain as well.
Very good question. Not too my knowledge. Mhmm
