B&M's Omnibus is the epitome of the "yogurty" base. It is tallow-based and whips up quicklly into a luscious, luxurious, creamy, yogurt which is dense and easy to spread with stability and slickness which are more than adequate. Becuase it's so creamy, its cushion is lower than soaps which prioritize volume over density. B&M prides itself on using high quality, natural, ingredients with beneficial skin properties such as coconut milk, goat milk, shea butter, avocado oil, kokum butter, castor oil and capuacu butter. For lovers of the yogurty shave soap, B&M sets the benchmark to beat.
