Saponificio Varesino Cosmo Beta 4.3 Shaving Soap is the latest evolution of the Cosmo soap formula, building on the previous Beta formulations and Beta 4.2. Its fragrance highlights zesty Sicilian citrus alongside dark, peppery notes of coffee, coriander, and nutmeg, grounded by timeless vetiver, sandalwood, and incense.

The Beta 4.3 formulation is designed for excellent post-shave comfort, with larch extract and a special castor-oil-based ingredient contributing to the soap's skin-care and lubrication properties. The result is a vegetable-based shaving soap formulated to provide a comfortable and well-lubricated shave.

Best For: Traditional wet shavers looking for a vegetable-based shaving soap with a complex citrus, spice, wood, and incense fragrance profile and enhanced post-shave comfort.

Scent Notes

Cosmo combines zesty Sicilian citrus with dark, peppery notes of coffee, coriander, and nutmeg. Vetiver, sandalwood, and incense form the base of the fragrance.

Performance Profile

The Beta 4.3 formulation is designed to provide excellent post-shave comfort. Larch extract is included for its ability to reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL), while a special castor-oil-based ingredient provides lubricating action intended to support the mechanical action of shaving.


A Word from the Manufacturer

Cosmo Shaving Soap has evolved through previous Beta formulations to reach Beta 4.3. The formulation combines its vegetable soap base with larch extract and a castor-oil-based lubricating ingredient to enhance the shaving and post-shave experience.

The formulation is 100% vegetable except for the fragrance and contains no palm oil. It is made without preservatives, chelating agents, or antioxidants of chemical origin, and contains no petroleum derivatives, mineral oils, coloring agents, or parabens. It is also formulated without EDTA, SLS, BHT, SLES, or PEG.

Directions for Use

Wet a shaving brush and load it directly from the soap. Add water gradually while working the brush to build a rich shaving lather. Apply evenly to the beard area and shave as desired. Rinse thoroughly after shaving.

Mia X. ★★★★★

The lather from this latest soap formula is incredibly dense and slick, and the Sicilian citrus scent is bright without being sharp. It takes me no time at all to build a perfect, cushioning lather for my shave. My skin feels

Evelyn W. ★★★★★

The lather from this soap is remarkably dense and protective, and the zesty Sicilian citrus scent is crisp without being overpowering. I’ve gotten consistent, slick shaves from the Beta 4.3 formula, and that 150g puck feels like it will last ages.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

I wasn't sure about spending this much on a soap, but the rich, creamy lather and the zesty Sicilian citrus scent make every shave feel like a small luxury. A little goes a long way with this 150g puck, too.
