Zingari Man The Explorer

Zingari Man (https://www.zingariskin.com/) is the men’s line of shave offerings from Zingari Skincare. The artisan, Heather Melton is a certified Cosmetic formulator through the Handcrafted Soap and Cosmetic Guild. To celebrate the company’s one year anniversary, Zingari Man released their Sego tallow soap base. The artisan’s focus is on nurturing your skin through the use of vitamins and minerals proven in skin health. The Zingari Man line offers shaving soap, post shave, beard care and skin care for a complete grooming experience. Zingari Man can be purchased direct from the site or at; Maggard Razors (http://www.maggardrazors.com/) and West Coast Shaving (https://www.westcoastshaving.com/).

The Explorer is an homage to the fragrance Bvlgari Man Wood Essence. This masculine fragrance features notes of; Citrus, Coriander, Cypress, Vetiver, Benzoin, Cedarwood and Ambergris. This is a fresh, clean scent that is approachable and safe. The top of the accord is bright citrus that is complimented by a woody middle and anchored by an ambergris base. Mrs. Ruds approves of this smell for all occasions. I had suspected this would be in her wheelhouse. Strength of scent is light to mid out of the jar and remains this way for the duration of lathering and shaving. Try That Soap (https://trythatsoap.com/) recommends Stirling Soap Co. Stirling For Him as a similar scent profile.

Zingari Man Sego is the company’s first tallow based soap offering. The tallow base is lanolin free for those with a sensitivity to lanolin in mind. The base features ingredients of: Stearic acid, Vegetable Glycerin, Beef tallow, Shea butter, Potassium Hydroxide, Castor oil, Palm oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Fragrance, Jojoba oil, Oat bran oil, Shea butter (and) Glyceral Rosinate (and) Olive oil unsaponifiables, Coconut oil, Daikon Seed extract, Goat milk, Coconut milk, Sodium lactate. This base mid-firm and loads without a lot of effort. This base requires a lot of water, a lot more than most soap offerings that you may be used to. When dialed in, the lather will have a consistency similar to Greek yogurt. Slickness is now in the elite class in terms of both primary and residual slickness. Post shave, like slickness is elite. The post shave rivals even the most nourishing offerings in the current soap market. The overall improvements to previous base offerings by Zingari Man are evident and welcomed. Zingari Man Sego receives a ShaveScore of 99. For similar performance from a soap base, I suggest; Ariana & Evans or Barrister and Mann.
