The story
Watch how OG Soap came to life
This soap started out of frustration. Supply issues kept killing my wash routine, so we built something custom instead.
Iterations A through E. Side by side scent tests. Foam that feels like shaving cream, not that dry airy stuff. This is the full journey, from first sample to final formula.
- 5 formula iterations tested
- Various slicknesses tested
- Scent comparisons
- Behind the scenes at the blending facility
