I appreciate all the effort you have put into making the list.
Thank you

+1 Thank you.

Yeah me too. The British manufacturers should be paying you frankly - I've started buying soaps from your colour-coded charts.

I could issue you with a blank spreadsheet and you can fill it in as you buy 'em!

Minor update from an acquisition today ...

Confirming that DR Harris have moved onto a new formulation and it is as expected the same as we've seen already from Captain Fawcett.

DR Harris Sandalwood
Sodium Tallowate, Potassium Stearate, Sodium Stearate, Aqua, Potassium Laurate, Sodium Laurate, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Glycerin, Parfum, Palm Kernal Acid, Potassium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Chloride, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Tetrasodium Iminodisuccinate, Q-Tolyl Biguanide, Limonene, Petrolatum, Tetrasodium EDTA, CI 77891

Captain Fawcett Luxurious
Sodium Tallowate, Potassium Stearate, Sodium Stearate, Aqua, Potassium Laurate, Sodium Laurate, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Glycerin, Parfum, Palm Kernal Acid, Potassium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Chloride, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Tetrasodium Iminodisuccinate, Q-Tolyl Biguanide, Linalool, Eugenol, Limonene, Petrolatum, Tetrasodium EDTA, CI 77891

I suppose it's possible that Cyril R Salter might move to this formulation as they're presently on a DR Harris formulation. That said, they've not always been ... so it could go anywhere. Let's hope they don't pick up the new Kent formulation, eh?

At least they've still kept tallow as its first ingredient. Have you tried it yet?

The Windsor has been a different formula. I wonder if they have changed that one as well.

First go this evening ... and while I kinda knew what I was in for having already shaved a number of times with the same formulation under the Captain Fawcett brand, I was again not disappointed. Versus the Arlington that I have, I think it's better. I think all of these 2024-style reformulations are better than practically all predecessors. The scent carried really well, too.

DRH are still on the green side of the table. Good to buy, good to use!

DRHarris Windsor had been a slightly different formula as above.


I went in the shop yesterday and had a look to see if they'd also changed the formula for Windsor. It looks like it's now the same as the Sandalwood. I should've checked them all. I think it's probably safe to say they are now all the same. New Windsor below. Good to see this is now more tallow based than previous.

Perfect! Thank you @NatJag

Yes, some fixatives at the far end of the list, but in the main it looks like they've standardised their soaps now in the main ingredients. Indeed! Tallow up front now ... same for Sandalwood.

So, given Cyril R Salter moved over to the DR Harris formulation following the dissolution of Broad Oak Toiletries (finally, 2016), there's strong hope that they'll continue and presumably move onto this new formulation.

I still hold out hope that Trumpers will face up to reality and follow suit with the very good T&H formulation ... which has that slight tweak with the inclusion of lanolin for MWF.
