I seen on their Instagram page that they plan to replace all their current base formulas with a new lanolin free base called Omnibus.
They're using something called cupuacu butter which they say is an "Amazonian skincare miracle", and can absorb 2.5 times as much water as lanolin and won't irritate sensitive skin.
I'm always a bit on the fence with this sort of news.
I think it's great that they're looking for ways to cater for every skin type and better their soaps, I guess as an artisan, improving your products should never end.
But on the other hand, how much better will this base be to their existing bases - all of which I find exceptional both in performance and post shave. But maybe it's more to do with the skin irritation side of things that they're renewing it.
Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be good. I'll probably end up trying the new base out, more out of curiosity more than anything else.
