@@BeastMadeReviews I don't know if you remember me, but I criticized you on your last Sasquatch soap review and your choice of soap, and I would like to formally apologize I have bought their product and now realize their are so many more options of wide variety soaps, and I thank you for helping me find this out. I would of continues to buy their overpriced soap if it wasn't for you, thank you.
I found that most of these soaps left the skin dry and flaky. Plus, the scents smell good in theory but they don't really stand out among other bars. I think Squatch is pretty good in terms of scents, texture, and how it leaves my skin. Only complaints I have are that 1. It is too expensive, and 2. The smell is not potent enough to last on your body unless you leave a slight layer of soapy water on you when you get out of the shower.
The way I've gotten it to work with all my bars regardless of brand is to really lather it up and scrub good while taking my time letting it soak in. Then when I rinse I do it very quickly and it works every time
Well, most fragrance blends are really bad for your skin anyhow. My friend told me to leave soap on your skin in the shower for 5 minutes to get the scent to last. I don't do it because I'm way too sensitive to different things.
@@JKidding989 yup, the good stuff doesn’t go far beyond 16 hours, perhaps a touch shorter if you are going hard. But as pointed out, natural stuff is using harsh chems to overpower the body.
use a soap that hydrates/moisturizes your skin and find a good long-lasting fragrance if you're trying to smell good. putting fragrances in products other than cologne is unnecessary if you have a cologne/perfume that you enjoy using. also make sure to apply moisturer after every shower if you aren't already
Dave really seems to have a hard-on for Dr. Squatch soap. As a man who just ordered $60 of bar soap from Dr. Squatch, I feel I may need to add more to my reserve collection. I am not a dish, Dave! I am a MAN!
I definitely agree. I love Dr. Squatch but agree with the BMR that it's pricey and the marketing is gross. But how can he say it's not a good value at 6 bucks a bar with a subscription and then say this other company's $15 bar is better? After watching this video and checking the alternatives I think I might stick with Squatch lol.
@@jh7468 I agree with you on some of that but the Dr Squatch bar is $7 bucks plus I heard and did a little bit of research that Squatch buys their soap from someone else. They don’t even make it
@@Sandman-actual You are correct! I have now cancelled my Squatch subscription because I think they try to rip off their customers. And yes, they get their soap from the Soap Guy, who I will now try. Crate 61 makes some good soap, also. I will definitely NOT take any suggestions from BeastMade - ever.
I recently learned that they buy their soaps from someone called The Soap Guy. You can look him up on Instagram. But basically you can get the same soap in bulk for a lot cheaper.
Listen, I'm a dr.squatch fan and I'm not hating on what David says but the squatch has done me absolute justice. Yes I understand it may not last long but I highly believe it's because of the extra chemicals and detergents In other soaps (Dove Old Spice etc etc) I'm all for all natural. My skin feels smoother I don't flake as much and on top of that my natural sweat and body scent has changed for the better and not to mention their deodorant lasts for A WHILE. Now I understand the Squatch may not be the BEST out there but fellas believe me or not it has not done me wrong yet and yes all of these are susceptible to whomever uses the shower the humidity and how long you shower me personally I take 15 to 20 minutes in a hot shower but as I said Dr.squatch is wonderful imo but I understand to each they're own.😊
Dr. Squatch gets their soap from a distributor called "the soap guy". If you watch his documentary, this guy lives just to make soap, he claims to be part of the soap. You're trippin if you think it's low quality soap.
@@mikevasquez6997 that's weird, I love mine. Smells awesome and it lathers better than any soap I've ever used. Felt like I was in a carwash or something... Also I noticed how slick the tub was when suds fell compared to others... You better hold on and that's good... That's how soap works.... The slicker the better. I also noticed how clean my skin was after rinsing off. Literally squeaky clean but leaves the skin soft and nurished... I'd love to know how u used it??? Best soap I've ever used
i agree 100% about the dr squatch. i waited almost a month for my three bars and under arm deoderant to come in. way too long on shipping but i'll chalk that up covid lol! so anyways first bar i tried is the pine tar. while yes it smells ok, but it lasted barely 2 weeks, one person using, one shower a day. the deoderant is a joke, its not even warm here in the north east yet, and after a day of light work my pits stink, and i'm not a sweaty guy. overall very disappointed. moved on to try duke cannon's soap. marshall's and tj max sell them cheap.
I went on Instagram of Dr squatch a couple of others said the same they stated because it doesn't have aluminum in it and all natural your body needs to get used to it and will take a while to get the toxins out of your other deodorant and get acclimated to theirs. Don't shot the messager just relaying the message I read from them
Strange, me and a few guys I know who use the deodorant have had the exact opposite experience. 1-2 swipes on the pits in the morning and you can easily still smell it by the end of a long, sweaty day in the shop.
I love my Dr. Sqautch, I think it smells great, and that smell lasts all day, same with deodorant and shampoo, and the bricks lasted about 3 weeks to a month with a soap saver net pouch.
Personally, I love dr.squatch and their products, I'm glad to hear another point of view on them, some of your points were true, others were opinionated, definitely would love to try those other soaps
Yes, that was one point of criticism for Squatch, but it wasn't my main contention with the brand. I don't like the way PAA cut their soaps either. But PAA is superior in every other way, so it's something I can overlook if given incentives and value in the product--which PAA does. But in making these reviews, PAA has said that they are changing their soaps to a mold with the name embossed in the soaps in order to have a better presentation.
You could always shop local too and smell them in person local soap makers are everywhere. Its pretty simple to make soap so a ton of people do it. Farmers markets and little shops usually have them and sometimes you can talk to them for a custom soap.
Yeah my friend who has a passion for skateboarding recently started making his own all natural soap and calls it Flat Bar Soap and sells it at his friend’s skate shop.
yeah their scents are just not good at all, they are so weak that it's hard to even really tell the difference between them just by smelling the bar sometimes.
Squatch 100% sucks as far as longevity to value but their ingredients are what keep me buying, the combination of herbs with kaolin clay and oils are perfect imo but I might try one of these out just because you say they’re a world of difference better
Agree man. Duke cannon blows squatch away. Last forever. Manly smells. Plus you get out of shower the scent stays. Squatch its gone as soon as you get out.
I was psyched about dr squatch until I saw the commercial a million more times. I feel that amount spent advertising and branding that sticks out too much really gives away a low quality product
Yeah i keep seeing them pop up on sponsored ads when i look up handmade bar soap on amazon. Guess we all know why their soap is so fucking expensive even though it’s not handmade. I literally buy handmade soap for $7 a bar and they want to sell mass produced dr squatch soap for that amount? No thanks.
@@voltaire5427 yeah, they are probably much better than the kind you get from a pharmacy, but I want to try the duke cannon out because those last really long I hear
I regretted my one purchase of dr squatch the first time I smelled and tried Duke Cannon. I've tried 8 different bars and my favorites are Gun Smoke and Productivity.
Hello so I’m back with an update. I recently bought a few items from Phoenix artisan as you suggested. I bought future fiction deodorant and it’s smells great. Though I must say you have to be gentle if you have hairy armpits because it is a bit sticky. But smells great. My favorite soap by them is big shave east. Hands down the best smelling soap from them. It has a very summer like smell, bright, unique, it’s one of those smells that if you use it during summer and smell it again in the future, it’ll take you back to that specific summer. Over all I like that brand so far so thanks for the suggestion!
that's awesome! So glad you like them as much as I do! I love their stuff. Their deodorants are some of the best I've tried, but they are a little stiff.
If you warm the bar up a bit with your body heat a bit before you apply it, it should apply a bit smoother. I go as far as to use a lighter so the process is a bit faster 😂
Stirling soap has some great bars and are a great value at less than $1/oz. I first found them for their shaving soap but their bath soaps are awesome too.
Stirling is all I use. I also have 22 sets of their shave soap/aftershave. Wonderful scents, top notch quality and a better price point that most artisans.
Artisan natural bar is is actually considered an irritant, and slightly hazardous. ... As one of the top ingredients in many shampoos, can affect the color of your and dehydrate the strands. Sulfates can potentially strip a layer of your , and the natural protective barrier of your will be damaged. Which it's not good. On Best all-natural exfoliating bar there's Sodium gluconate is widely used in textile dyeing, printing and metal surface water treatment. It is also used as a chelating agent, a steel surface cleaning agent, a cleaning agent for glass bottles, and as a chelating agent for cement, plating and alumina dyeing industries.
$7 for cold pressed natural soap is NOT "expensive," ffs I don't get this at all. I love Dr. Squatch it doesn't irritate my skin and it smells SO good. Esp. Cool Fresh Aloe and Cold Brew Cleanse, just amazing. And I'm a girl and I love their products and use the toothpaste and shampoo & conditioner as well. $7 a bar is cheap for premium natural cold pressed soap.
"expensive" is always relative, but I think for the vast majority of people used to buying soaps at the supermarket, spending $7 on a soap is expensive by comparison. I'm not against spending more money for better quality--including soaps. My favorite soap is about $6. But Squatch doesn't offer quality in return for its higher price tag. It's actually worse than store-bought soap, which is where my criticism comes from.
Actually, it is VERY expensive because what you probably don't know is that Dr. Squatch is merely a re-seller of soaps that can be purchased from Bulk Apothecary for as little as $1.25 per bar. Many of Dr. Squatch's soaps are on Bulk Apothecary. BA specifically makes their soaps for re-sellers. You're paying all that money just for Dr. Squatch branding and their advertising budget. Congratulations on helping scammers get rich. 😂
I tried Dr. Squatch, they seriously let me down, my wife said she couldn’t smell the scent from pine tar and I’m almost out of the pine tar bar after a week, so yes I used a lot of it to and smell good and it’s no good.
Hey dude the first bar of soap that you just recommended they do charge $7 a bar on their website I was just at Walmart and I got dr. Squatch bar soap for five bucks
Very detailed, very informative. I actually bought DC's Leaf and Leather a couple of years ago, cut it into smaller pieces and use it as a campling soap. Love that scent. Definitely will need to check out Mahana. Thank you Daver!
“Detailed”? Did we watch the same video? If I had a nickel for every time he said “I think it’s all natural, but I don’t know, but it it might be, but I’m not sure…”, I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure I’d have a dollar, but maybe not, but I might. Not much research went into this at all other than him saying here’s a bunch of soaps I like. But doesn’t give any GOOD reasons for Dr. Squatch being “bad” - just that he doesn’t like it and feels like they pander in their commercials. That’s pretty week. And $50 for a bar of soap??? That’s 50 reasons to F#%K off in my humble opinion. That said, I do want to check out DC… maybe some of the others, but I will never spend $50 for a bar of soap. That’s straight up stupid.
I love Doctor Squatch. Made from all natural ingredients, I think the smell is fine and so do the ladies. 1 bar lasts me 4 weeks and I shower twice a day. Going to try Jeremy's Razors soaps and shampoos too this week.
Thanks for making this video. I recently tried Dr. Squatch and I’ve been looking forward to my showers ever scents, (I couldn’t pass up on that opportunity, I’m sorry) so needless to say, I was shocked to see your reaction in the previous video. The most valid point in was the fact that they really do just seem to melt in the shower and that’s left me wondering what other alternatives could be out there. I’m likely going to try PAA first and I’ll be pleasantly surprised if they can raise the bar just a little higher. I haven’t used any of the scents you tried, but I’ll say that bay rum was the best of the three I tried by a long shot and I highly recommended you pick this one if you were to ever feel like giving them a second chance. I’m no fragrance guy, but the smell is something that I could only describe as a tropical island bubble gum and I can’t get enough of it.
If you like Bay Rum at all, you will LOVE Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. The owner is a self-professed connoisseur of the bay rum smell. He has several different varieties of it on his site, and of course in their soaps as well. PAA has some of the best feeling soaps on the market, bar none. I think they last a little longer than Squatch, though maybe not dramatically so. But I think they are superior in almost every way.
David Santarelli I literally bought two 10-packs of soap they sell (spearmint basil scrub and bay rum) from the wholesaler they buy from and it came out to $3/bar. And that was after an $18 shipping cost for next day shipping. Was $1.79/bar before shipping, or $17.90 for the 10 bar pre-cut loaf. You’re paying $4/bar for their advertising and label.
@@Greenbee12964 Link below. They have dozens of different types to choose from. I got the Spearmint Basil Scrub and the Bay Rum. They’re extremely fragrant and feel the same as Dr. squatch on your skin. Though they’re rectangular bars and not square. Can’t beat the price. www.bulkapothecary.com/spearmint-basil-scrub-cold-process-soap-loaves-bars/
I had a history is trying men soaps while being 13 years of trying 🧼 Like dove,dr.squatch,harry,irish spring,duke cannon and soon a soap trying dude.🧼🤨
I tried Irish spring in the 1970’s. It was amazing, I knew the chemists had done work. Still use Irish Spring, lots of other soaps leave an oily film on your skin. dr. squatch commercials make me not watch any videos that open with their ads! 😂
Yeah, I've been using it since the Summer and have much less chest acne than I did using any body wash. All the scents I've gotten have been really nice smelling to me. Dude's got a vendetta.
Yeah idk what this guy is talking about. I was skeptical of Dr Squatch until I tried it. Now I won't use anything else. The smell is great for the most part and the best thing is I actually FEEL clean when I'm done using it. This guy is just promoting big companies
My girlfriend bought some squatch soaps. I like the smell but they don't seem to go very far and when I found out how expensive they are I don't think I'll be buying them myself. It did turn me onto using soap over body washes though. The lather is heaps better and I love how my skin feels after
They aren't nearly as expensive as he makes them out to be, just got 6 bars for $28, you gotta watch the sales ( they have 3 weeks out of the month) and even without the sale it like $35 for 6 bars not to mention ive only ordered 3 times and have earned enough Squash dollars for 4 bars....sure if you order a single bar you're going to pay more,but why would you order a single bar and pay for shipping, when you can order enough soap for a year for less than $40 and get shipping free ?
I like Dr. SQUATCH but I don't have much experience with this specific type of soap. I grew up with the generic soaps, supermarket and what not. I'll give your list a try.
Not sure if you'll see/respond to this question given this being a slightly older video for you, but what is your recommendation for someone like me who is looking for a soap, deodorant, and cologne that all have the same scent? I'm looking to have a great scent that radiates off me, but obviously without over doing it.
Thanks for your question, Jason! Actually, Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements (one of my favorite soaps in this video) has many products for all their scents. You can find soaps, deodorants, and colognes (eau de parfum concentration, which is stronger than average), and then other products as well. I really like their products and their scents, and I think both their soaps and deodorants are some of the best I've ever tried. (As well as their shaving stuff). So you can get the same scent across many products. (Here's an affiliate link if you want to go directly to them: bit.ly/3uofv7E) But you can also try to find soaps and deodorants from companies that sell colognes as well, and often you can find bundles of these together for a bargain. That's great if you already have a favorite cologne and you want to find the products to accompany it. It's a bit of a mixed bag on their quality, though. Sometimes they're good, sometimes they're a waste. So it's kind of a trade. But you can get good deals from time to time.
I did a little research on ingredients like “oak moss and “coumarin” and the information was a little scary ( skin reactions, liver inflammation, carcinogen,etc…). I noticed the some products from Phoenix Shaving contain some of these components. What could you tell us about it?
oak moss and coumarin are still used in fragrances, but with stricter guidelines on the types of ingredients and the amount per volume. With fragrances, the concentration of oil is much higher than in soap or shampoo. And even then, you're talking about minute amounts in perfumes. I don't know the answer to your question about PAA, but I am personally not concerned about it. The percent per volume of oils is way smaller in soap, and you're washing it right off anyway.
You dogging Squatch soap is your opinion. I've tried all those crap soaps you mentioned, and they are not good. They still dry my skin out, and Squatch soap does not. The reason why my skin dries out is because of the chemicals in those other soaps. Squatch is all natural with less than 10 natural ingredients. I've been using Squatch for well over a year, and my skin is never dried out...ever.
well, yes, Chazz, a review is an opinion. What else would it be? But i seriously doubt you have any experience with these soaps, and I think you just want to argue. It's obvious from your dismissal of these clearly superior soaps. Have a good day.
@@BeastMadeReviews Come on, man. You are accusing him of lying and who is to say you didn't lie too. Honestly, I don't care but I'm looking for a really good soap bar but the way you describe Dr. Squatch was unnecessary. You even disliked their comercial!!🤣🤣 No hate thought, it's just funny how you described it. I have one question though! Do any of these soap comes with sand like Dr. Squatch? I mean the sand does help believe it or not! So, since you don't like Dr. Squatch, can you mention one fully natural and with raspy feeling (sand)? Just asking I want to know before I buy any, but I want your honest answer. Something you would guaranted would work for moisturazing skin. Sorry if this comment came off ofensive or anything, wasn't my intention!! Thanks
@@potatolord1221 I never lie in general. But certainly not in a review. There is no motive to do so. As for soap recommendations, look at my video about "Squatch Killers". All of them are great, and if you want a natural one, I have a few suggestions there.
@@BeastMadeReviews well, certainly not everyone lies but they sure as heck exaggerate . 🤷🏽♂️ Thanks for the recommendations? I was hoping for a more subtle answer but whatever I'll just go for Dr. Squatch. I gotta try that since you spoke so bad of it, kinda makes me want to know for my self what this hate is about. Thanks though Have a nice day! 🖖
First off wanna say love your videos! Glad to have someone giving honest reviews. I have been using Dr. Squatch for over a year and THOUGHT it was great.. until I took your recommendation of PAA. They’re still a little cheaper and have huge variety of better scents so I will not be going back! Thank you for helping me discover them
Not understanding the hate I just got 6 bars from Dr Squash for $28.00,you gotta watch sales (that they have 3 weeks out of the month lol)im set on soap for like 7 months maybe more
I love dr squatch, you are not meant to shower twice a day or even everyday. If you shower properly it will last a long time. The soap is so green and more environmentally friendly then just about anything on the market. For a man to be ok with dove soap or anything else clearly has no sense of style and doesn’t care about his skin. The truth is that these synthetic chemicals have conditioned the public and corrupted the taste of modern men. Yes it is expensive. It’s also fantastic for your skin. It’s also American made. It’s also naturally gathered and made by hand. You certainly get what you pay for. American craftsmanship. Dr squatch is clearly the more premium and permanent option for healthy skin. After 6 months of using squatch I can’t tell the difference between my German shepherds shampoo and my old head and shoulders shampoo. I usually don’t comment on here, but I am compelled to voice just how wrong you are. As an avid user of squatch I must defend a good product.
You are incorrect, actually. Dr. Squatch is one of the worst soaps I have tried--and I've tested dozens of brands. Some of my favorites are natural and last MUCH longer than Dr. Squatch, meaning that Dr. Squatch is actually very poor quality overall. If you like it, I'm happy for you. But there are much better options on the market, and some are even a better price, too.
I use zest! Looking for alternative soaps. I have no clue when it comes to luxurious feel to soaps. As long as the soap lasts a long time, cleans my body well, and keeps it hydrated I am good. Different smells are opinion based. If my girlfriend likes the smell then I am good to go.
What do you think are your favorite outlaw scents? I tried the Home on the Range bar and I’m not gonna lie it wasn’t my favorite. The scent was a bit too… sickly sweet, I guess. And on top of that the bar didn’t last very long. A good thorough wash felt like it took away a 10th of its mass
@@thatguywholeftacomment6532 cold process soaps have their quirks. Don’t use hot water, try lukewarm or cool. Pat them dry after and leave them on a soap dish that allows air flow. And I’d recommend the gambler if you like more of a rich scent and less of a sweet smell. It’s really rugged and varied. Lust in the dust is awesome too, so is blazing saddles
@@thatguywholeftacomment6532 Hi! I was just looking in the comments (because who doesn't?) and I saw this - go ahead and email us at howdy@liveoutlaw.com and we'll hook ya up with a replacement bar. We're working on a "soap care" video, but in the mean time, it has to be out of standing water - all the handmade soaps are going to be like that, but I know that's frustrating.
Hey just finished watching the video and I got to say great work it’s very informative! As a man I’ve felt that company’s tend to make shittier products because normally men tend to care less but I’ve seriously added a couple of the soaps you mentioned on my target list and can’t wait to try them. I’m not sure if you’ve made a video on it yet but I couldn’t find it but how do you feel about Dr Bronner soaps? Also, I was surprised by the size of your channel and views, you have great lighting, good camera quality, great angles, and good b roll I honestly believe you should have way more subscribers, might I suggest just as a viewer to work on the thumbnails, it’d be a shame to see your quality content and clear effort go unnoticed. A trendier more clickable and broad thumbnail can cast a wider net for audiences. But definitely earned a subscriber!
i gotta say the phoenix artisan future science bar is amazing, i bought dr. squatch and i though it was pretty overrated so i watched this, and immediately ordered and will be ordering again. if you didn't like dr. squatch definitely give that soap a try.
PAA smells absolutely amazing!!! The only problem I have with it is that they make my skin feel waxy and dry. duke cannon lathers really well! I have also tried usra major and it left my skin feeling smooth. Thats all the soap i tried so far
Nothing wrong with suggesting better products, nothing wrong with providing someone an easy way to get the better products, and nothing wrong with making an affiliate commission for providing someone a convenient link to a superior product. You think your comment shames me, but it's just ignorant.
@@BeastMadeReviews I was never trying to shame you, I just thought it was funny. Every one has an opinion about products, but just because you think certain products are seperior than others is not factual it's an opinion. You have the right to voice your opinion just as I do. But hey guess what... I got my squatch a couple of days ago. It's really good soup. If you have a soap dish it will last much longer! Which is true with pretty much any soap bar. I think you should get some kind of reward for the time you spent to research and put together a video of the soaps you like best. Anyways, thanks for responding and you keep doing you! Get them affliate clicks lol Nice video!
@@BeastMadeReviews Also just some freindly advice, if you feel like someone is just trolling your video in the comment section don't waste your time with a reply, you're just feeding the trolls and wasting your time. You probably already know that but I thought I would just put that out there. I saw you reply to a couple of them hungry trolls lol.
@@Taitmon Way to walk it back, Taitmon. I love responding to trolls. It makes my day. I've been reviewing for about ten years, so I am very familiar with the comments section. Btw, I did use the soap saver. I used a soap saver on all the soaps I tested. Squatch is just inferior in every way. But if you like it, I'm glad you enjoy it. (Buy from my affiliate links) :P
@@Taitmon if you really intended this as advice, you wouldn't have made it a public comment. Either way, how nice of you of share your expertise and give advice about how to deal with TH-cam trolls. That's definitely relevant to this video.
After watching this video I ordered five bars from Phoenix. They are so good! I don't think I'll ever go back to shower gel. And what brought me here was the fact that I was looking for Dr. Squatch reviews. 😂
It's funny... When I picked up my bottle of "A Whiff of Waffle Cone" I grabbed a bar of "The Abandoned Mansion" to push me over the 'free shipping' threshold and I was just not impressed with the soap at all... The fragrance was great but the quality of the bar was just not what I would expect from a house like IA... Was very disappointed and will not order soap from them again... Personally... Whenever I want to treat myself to a nice soap (not in the Creed kinda way... LOL!!!) I always end up grabbing a bar of Geo F. Trumper's Goat Milk Soap... It's not a 'natural' soap or anything but for me it is the best soap I have ever used and I just love it... Great video as always Daver... Thanks so much for sharing... ^_^
So little hack I have is I dry the soap off with a towel put it back in the box it came in but I take those silica gel packets that we’ll all have gotten and put it in the box with the bar it will absorb any remaining moisture.
I swear honest amish soap is the best, smells great is afordable cleans my body and beard very well and if taken care of can last upto 6 mo for one bar.
I really liked Dr. Squatch Pine Tar soap until I realized how hard it was to keep my shower clean. The dark color stains the nooks and crannies. Made my shower look dirty.
I’m a huge Phoenix Artisan fan as well! Have you tried their shampoo pucks? I ditched my higher end salon shampoos for them. Their deodorant is great too!
Pine tar is the best soap I've ever used. I used to work forestry and I missed smelling like an ENT from lord of the rings. My skin feels great and my girl digs it. I dont have any more demands out of my soap than that.
@@BeastMadeReviews I love the pine tar bar! It doesn’t smell like pines but like an outside forest smell. It’s made from all natural oils and it has activated charcoal! It leaves my skin super soft and smelling great! soaps like dove drys my skin out so much and smells like laundry detergent. I haven’t tried most of the soaps you’ve recommended but I have tired those basic ones like dove. I really like the toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soaps and deodorant. So it’s a perfect one stop shop for me.
@@BeastMadeReviewsI’ve lived in WA state my entire life. I’m 31 years old. I’m sitting in a bedroom, with an unopened box of Squatch Pine Tar soap in my hand. It’s not too far off on accuracy. I took a slow long inhale…it’s pine. But like a grungy, dry, dirty forest (I supposed all forests are ‘dirty’ but I’m doing the best I can with my description). Notice it’s labeled Pine TAR. Which is why I think it has a messy dirty type of scent. These topics are subjective type topics. Nobody is right or wrong here. We can only say what we feel about the product. There will not be an objective truth found ANYWHERE here.
@@movementencouragedfitness5945 Is that an objective statement? I kid, but this is the type of comment that gets tiring to read. No one is arguing against subjectivity. I made a statement about why I think it doesn't smell like pine, and I mentioned that I live in a town that is literally covered in pine trees. It's not saying that the scent is objectively good or bad. It's a statement about my perception of how the scent is recreated. After my real-world experience, mixed with my professional experience smelling fragrances, I think this is a bad recreation. But if you like it, great. I'm happy for you. You do you.
These are reviews based on scents? I need to know how it feels on my body and that it doesn’t dry out your skin cause dr squat undoes pretty well with that
Daver, I didn't know you had a second channel. This is very cool! I like the you know about Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. Being a wet shaver, I'm a regular customer with quite a collection of their products. They're excellent along with made by excellent people.
Thanks for sharing! Yeah, I think cleansing bars like Harry's are trying to err more on the side of cleaning rather than moisturizing. But yes! Definitely check out Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements! The have probably the best moisturizing soap I have ever tried.
2:08 has to be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard, out of hearing all the dr squatch ads about big soap being bad this guy is still convinced that dove and ivory are “leagues better” naw gtfo.
Hey man! if you haven’t already, can you make a review for best masculine reed diffusers? I can’t seem to find much that stand out, not to mention there’s little to no videos about this topic. I’ve taken a look at dr. Vranjes, or some “promising” sounding ones by Mefrangrance (which I can’t get in Canada) but I haven’t given them a try so I don’t know what they’re like. I’d stick to candles but they don’t last as much, as well as having to put them out when I’m not around. Definitely in need for some solid options with good projection here!
Yeah I think Duke Cannon is a lot better than Squatch. I have several products from DC, and they are all very good. I think they are aiming to be more of an alternative to Axe (which it blows them out of the water), but it is better than Squatch in my experience.
The only all natural and non-toxic soap you presented is Ursa Major. The rest of them have Parfums and Propylene Glycol. Not ingredients that should be on skin. Dr Squatch don't have those toxic chemicals. I do agree that they're over-priced.
I disagree. There are several "natural" alternatives here. But my point isn't to offer suggestions that are universally approved by health proponents. These soaps are my recommendations as alternatives to Dr. Squatch. As I said, I think even Dove soap is a better alternative--whether it's natural or not. I'm not focusing on "natural" as a recommendation. As for Propylene Glycol, if it's used as a food additive and considered safe, I think it's safe enough to put on top of your skin and wash off. Your mileage may vary.
Couldn't disagree more. Squatch soap smells great and lasts a long time. I don't understand what people are doing with their soap, but if you use a saver and let it dry it lasts a long time.
I did. I explained that. And I used the same method when testing these soaps. The Squatch soaps I've tried don't last long at all. And all of these soaps lasted a lot longer. To each his own.
I used them once, bought a pack of 6 with the saver and all, DID NOT last long at all, like he said, 2 weeks tops, and the smell doesn't even stick, afterwards everything smelt the same, even right now, I'm on my last bar, Bay Rum. That's why I clicked on this video 😂 I'm looking for alternatives before it runs out, literally used it twice and is now about half the size, yes, with the little "saver"
I'm noticing that you're talking about "cheap" and "price" quite frequently when determining if you like the soap or not. While price might be a consideration on affordability for some, price shouldn't be a factor when determining quality. You gotta realize that soaps made with different ingredients is going to affect the soap price. If you look at your "cheap" soaps that you recommend, you will see Lard, Tallow, or Palm Oil as the main ingredient in most cases. While these are perfectly fine ingredients in a soap, there are many people who prefer to avoid these ingredients. So some companies choose to focus on making a vegan alternative, which is gonna be more pricey. While both soaps may be good quality and an awesome soap, it's the ingredients that determine the price. Vegan soaps usually need butters (shea butter, cocoa butter, mango butter, kokum butter, etc...) to help with Longevity, since they aren't using animal products, or palm. And butters aren't "cheap"! This is why I disagree with using price as a determining factor on whether you like the soap or not. The deciding factor should be based off of whether the soap is a good quality.
Price isn't the determining factor for liking a soap. I like inexpensive soaps as well as expensive ones. One of my favorite soaps in this videos is one of the cheapest in this list.
Me and my dad both use Duke Cannon soaps and we absolutely love them. They're massive and take a good long while to go all the way through, they smell great, they look great, they feel great, and I'd bet they taste great (don't recommend eating soap). My favorite part is their aesthetic. They really appeal to manly guys with their actually really great marketing and designs. Their boxes look great and have a unique design to them that makes me love them, it's honestly amazing how much effort they put into a box you'll end up throwing away. I've used their Busch beer soap, and I love it. My dad's had a couple of them (don't know which one's exactly). Overrall would definitely recommend them. They're an amazing company, and they make some of the best hygiene products for truly manly men. Definitely worth spending $10 for a massive brick of soap, made to be manly, by manly men.
I’m a Duke Cannon user I tried Dr squatch just to see and it had good sent but I barely got a week out of 1 bar vs a month per bar from Duke with the same level of scent. I just struggle to find a good men’s shampoo/conditioner. I just dint think highly of sqautch and have stuck with duke cannon.
Would it possible to have individual links to the soaps. I heard you talk about them but I forget the name. I'm not entirely sure which soap is which in your description
The links are in the video description. I did describe them in the links, and that corresponds to the time stamps in the video. So if you see a soap you like, look at the time stamp description and match it to the link. 🙂
@@BeastMadeReviews true but if I wanted to try each soap individually I don't want to rewatch the vid. Like in a month or two I'll need more soap and I rather not rewatch the video each time to learn which soap is which.
I have tried so many different bars of soap and deodorants. Dr squatch has been my favorite ever since i bought some last week. I bought toothpaste shampoo and conditioner also. Everything they make is far superior than any other thing i have tried to this point. Dr squatch products smell amazing and my wife loves it. I use to have red broken out underarms and stinky also from using natural deodorant. With the squatch i smell good all day long and have no red pits anymore. My dandruff is gone and my beard dandruff is gone too from using these products. I have tried alot of different products this guy is speaking good about and they may work for other people but none have measured up to the dr squatch products. I have tried way more natural than any of these because i saw them made first hand but still the squatch wins hands down. I would rather go expensive and be happy than to go cheap and feel cheap!
Ever since I started using squatch soap my skin feels great . Doesn't dry me out and smells great. It's expensive yes so it's not for everyone. One bar lasts me about a week , two showers a day . The smell doesn't last all day but who wants to smell like soap all day? That's what cologne is for .

I found that most of these soaps left the skin dry and flaky. Plus, the scents smell good in theory but they don't really stand out among other bars. I think Squatch is pretty good in terms of scents, texture, and how it leaves my skin. Only complaints I have are that 1. It is too expensive, and 2. The smell is not potent enough to last on your body unless you leave a slight layer of soapy water on you when you get out of the shower.
The way I've gotten it to work with all my bars regardless of brand is to really lather it up and scrub good while taking my time letting it soak in. Then when I rinse I do it very quickly and it works every time
You have to use body moisturizer after every shower to counter the bar drying you out. All bar soap does that to me.
Well, most fragrance blends are really bad for your skin anyhow. My friend told me to leave soap on your skin in the shower for 5 minutes to get the scent to last. I don't do it because I'm way too sensitive to different things.
@@JKidding989 yup, the good stuff doesn’t go far beyond 16 hours, perhaps a touch shorter if you are going hard. But as pointed out, natural stuff is using harsh chems to overpower the body.
use a soap that hydrates/moisturizes your skin and find a good long-lasting fragrance if you're trying to smell good. putting fragrances in products other than cologne is unnecessary if you have a cologne/perfume that you enjoy using. also make sure to apply moisturer after every shower if you aren't already
Dave really seems to have a hard-on for Dr. Squatch soap. As a man who just ordered $60 of bar soap from Dr. Squatch, I feel I may need to add more to my reserve collection. I am not a dish, Dave! I am a MAN!
😂😂😂
I definitely agree. I love Dr. Squatch but agree with the BMR that it's pricey and the marketing is gross. But how can he say it's not a good value at 6 bucks a bar with a subscription and then say this other company's $15 bar is better? After watching this video and checking the alternatives I think I might stick with Squatch lol.
@@jh7468 I agree with you on some of that but the Dr Squatch bar is $7 bucks plus I heard and did a little bit of research that Squatch buys their soap from someone else. They don’t even make it
Preach
@@Sandman-actual You are correct! I have now cancelled my Squatch subscription because I think they try to rip off their customers. And yes, they get their soap from the Soap Guy, who I will now try. Crate 61 makes some good soap, also. I will definitely NOT take any suggestions from BeastMade - ever.
It’s nice but it’s too overpriced for how long it lasts, I only got my bar of soap to last for like 2 weeks max. Thank you for this.
How often did you use it?
@@jordanmchighlander9365 every day to every other day
I recently learned that they buy their soaps from someone called The Soap Guy. You can look him up on Instagram. But basically you can get the same soap in bulk for a lot cheaper.
@@tommyhiggins3665 like 17.50 for a loaf you can cut 12 5oz bars from it.
Thats because its natural. When stuff isn't loaded with cancer causing ingredients it tends to breakdown faster.
Listen, I'm a dr.squatch fan and I'm not hating on what David says but the squatch has done me absolute justice. Yes I understand it may not last long but I highly believe it's because of the extra chemicals and detergents In other soaps (Dove Old Spice etc etc) I'm all for all natural. My skin feels smoother I don't flake as much and on top of that my natural sweat and body scent has changed for the better and not to mention their deodorant lasts for A WHILE. Now I understand the Squatch may not be the BEST out there but fellas believe me or not it has not done me wrong yet and yes all of these are susceptible to whomever uses the shower the humidity and how long you shower me personally I take 15 to 20 minutes in a hot shower but as I said Dr.squatch is wonderful imo but I understand to each they're own.😊
I’m glad it works for you 🙂
Dr. Squatch gets their soap from a distributor called "the soap guy". If you watch his documentary, this guy lives just to make soap, he claims to be part of the soap. You're trippin if you think it's low quality soap.
how do you know he didn't clap some soap cheeks and sent you the left overs?
I have been using Dr. Squatch for about three weeks so far I am not disappointed. But I am trying to stay with all natural ingredients
There are hundreds of other natural soap companies, just go on-line to find them, they perform far better than Squatch.

I canceled my Dr Squatch because the scent is weak and the lather sucks. But you go ahead and live and learn
@@mikevasquez6997 that's weird, I love mine. Smells awesome and it lathers better than any soap I've ever used. Felt like I was in a carwash or something... Also I noticed how slick the tub was when suds fell compared to others... You better hold on and that's good... That's how soap works.... The slicker the better. I also noticed how clean my skin was after rinsing off. Literally squeaky clean but leaves the skin soft and nurished... I'd love to know how u used it??? Best soap I've ever used
@@mikevasquez6997 lather depends on the kind of soap you buy from them. I get cedar citrus and that lathers so well.
i agree 100% about the dr squatch. i waited almost a month for my three bars and under arm deoderant to come in. way too long on shipping but i'll chalk that up covid lol! so anyways first bar i tried is the pine tar. while yes it smells ok, but it lasted barely 2 weeks, one person using, one shower a day. the deoderant is a joke, its not even warm here in the north east yet, and after a day of light work my pits stink, and i'm not a sweaty guy. overall very disappointed. moved on to try duke cannon's soap. marshall's and tj max sell them cheap.
Sucks but I always got mine within the week
gotta order it off Amazon. often can get it next day or same week through amazon. I never buy mine direct from dr squatch website bc of that
I went on Instagram of Dr squatch a couple of others said the same they stated because it doesn't have aluminum in it and all natural your body needs to get used to it and will take a while to get the toxins out of your other deodorant and get acclimated to theirs. Don't shot the messager just relaying the message I read from them
Strange, me and a few guys I know who use the deodorant have had the exact opposite experience. 1-2 swipes on the pits in the morning and you can easily still smell it by the end of a long, sweaty day in the shop.
I get mine 3 days after ordering 🤷
I love how only after I look up reviews and order a box of squatch, this pops up.
Thanks for spreading the word about Squatch... as a born and raised Phoenician, looking forward to trying your first recommendation
Hope you enjoy it!

@@BeastMadeReviews no problem, have a good night
I like how he knocks Dr. Squatch soap on the way its cut, but the one he first pulls out look like a wedge because it was cut so bad.
Yes, that was one point of criticism for Squatch, but it wasn't my main contention with the brand. I don't like the way PAA cut their soaps either. But PAA is superior in every other way, so it's something I can overlook if given incentives and value in the product--which PAA does. But in making these reviews, PAA has said that they are changing their soaps to a mold with the name embossed in the soaps in order to have a better presentation.
Well I mean a machine most likely cuts them
@@sarahmorris389 I think there cold pressed
@@User-Handler-5634 cold process. Cold pressed is olive oil
You could always shop local too and smell them in person local soap makers are everywhere. Its pretty simple to make soap so a ton of people do it. Farmers markets and little shops usually have them and sometimes you can talk to them for a custom soap.
Great tip!
Yeah my friend who has a passion for skateboarding recently started making his own all natural soap and calls it Flat Bar Soap and sells it at his friend’s skate shop.
Yes, you are correct, and it's nice to patronize local businesses.
I appreciate your honesty. I like everything about the squatch soap minus the scents. They're not strong and don't stick around long enough at all.
Thank you for watching!
yeah their scents are just not good at all, they are so weak that it's hard to even really tell the difference between them just by smelling the bar sometimes.
Squatch 100% sucks as far as longevity to value but their ingredients are what keep me buying, the combination of herbs with kaolin clay and oils are perfect imo but I might try one of these out just because you say they’re a world of difference better
How long does it last on your body?
Agree man. Duke cannon blows squatch away. Last forever. Manly smells. Plus you get out of shower the scent stays. Squatch its gone as soon as you get out.
Duke cannons soaps are way to strong for me
Plus one on duke cannon
Which is the best scent for you ?
@giovannyplasencia idk if they make it anymore but it was budweiser cedarwood. Now.id say the new superior
I'd put Mistral soaps up against anything.
I was psyched about dr squatch until I saw the commercial a million more times. I feel that amount spent advertising and branding that sticks out too much really gives away a low quality product
so you havent had one lol
Yeah i keep seeing them pop up on sponsored ads when i look up handmade bar soap on amazon. Guess we all know why their soap is so fucking expensive even though it’s not handmade. I literally buy handmade soap for $7 a bar and they want to sell mass produced dr squatch soap for that amount? No thanks.
@@rimurutempest273 never had one but I keep hearing it's overpriced compared to other soap for the same price
Smelled a handful of different Squatch bars. They were all very high quality, but I hear they don't last.
@@voltaire5427 yeah, they are probably much better than the kind you get from a pharmacy, but I want to try the duke cannon out because those last really long I hear
This is such a helpful video! Thanks for taking the time to walk through all these so in-depth! What is your go-to scent from PHX Artisan?
Thank you for watching! PAA has several I like, but one that never fails (for me) is their Future Fiction. Just a great all-round scent.
The fresh falls dr squatch is the best smelling soap ive ever smelled. But it melted within 10 showers
I regretted my one purchase of dr squatch the first time I smelled and tried Duke Cannon. I've tried 8 different bars and my favorites are Gun Smoke and Productivity.
Hello so I’m back with an update. I recently bought a few items from Phoenix artisan as you suggested. I bought future fiction deodorant and it’s smells great. Though I must say you have to be gentle if you have hairy armpits because it is a bit sticky. But smells great. My favorite soap by them is big shave east. Hands down the best smelling soap from them. It has a very summer like smell, bright, unique, it’s one of those smells that if you use it during summer and smell it again in the future, it’ll take you back to that specific summer. Over all I like that brand so far so thanks for the suggestion!
that's awesome! So glad you like them as much as I do! I love their stuff. Their deodorants are some of the best I've tried, but they are a little stiff.
If you warm the bar up a bit with your body heat a bit before you apply it, it should apply a bit smoother. I go as far as to use a lighter so the process is a bit faster 😂
Stirling soap has some great bars and are a great value at less than $1/oz. I first found them for their shaving soap but their bath soaps are awesome too.
Stirling is all I use. I also have 22 sets of their shave soap/aftershave.
Wonderful scents, top notch quality and a better price point that most artisans.
Artisan natural bar is is actually considered an irritant, and slightly hazardous. ... As one of the top ingredients in many shampoos, can affect the color of your and dehydrate the strands. Sulfates can potentially strip a layer of your , and the natural protective barrier of your will be damaged. Which it's not good. On Best all-natural exfoliating bar there's Sodium gluconate is widely used in textile dyeing, printing and metal surface water treatment. It is also used as a chelating agent, a steel surface cleaning agent, a cleaning agent for glass bottles, and as a chelating agent for cement, plating and alumina dyeing industries.
This upload is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much for the recommendations.
Glad it was helpful!
$7 for cold pressed natural soap is NOT "expensive," ffs I don't get this at all. I love Dr. Squatch it doesn't irritate my skin and it smells SO good. Esp. Cool Fresh Aloe and Cold Brew Cleanse, just amazing. And I'm a girl and I love their products and use the toothpaste and shampoo & conditioner as well. $7 a bar is cheap for premium natural cold pressed soap.
"expensive" is always relative, but I think for the vast majority of people used to buying soaps at the supermarket, spending $7 on a soap is expensive by comparison. I'm not against spending more money for better quality--including soaps. My favorite soap is about $6. But Squatch doesn't offer quality in return for its higher price tag. It's actually worse than store-bought soap, which is where my criticism comes from.
Actually, it is VERY expensive because what you probably don't know is that Dr. Squatch is merely a re-seller of soaps that can be purchased from Bulk Apothecary for as little as $1.25 per bar. Many of Dr. Squatch's soaps are on Bulk Apothecary. BA specifically makes their soaps for re-sellers. You're paying all that money just for Dr. Squatch branding and their advertising budget. Congratulations on helping scammers get rich. 😂
Literally got a Dr squatch ad in the beginning
I tried Dr. Squatch, they seriously let me down, my wife said she couldn’t smell the scent from pine tar and I’m almost out of the pine tar bar after a week, so yes I used a lot of it to and smell good and it’s no good.
I tried the major ursa bar first and it’s amazing and I tried dr squatch after seeing it at Walmart and was seriously disappointed
@@iamFACKINdoinit I’m saying bro! I use a shit load of it and it doesn’t leave you smelling strong like how they claim, and it dissolves quick

Hey dude the first bar of soap that you just recommended they do charge $7 a bar on their website I was just at Walmart and I got dr. Squatch bar soap for five bucks
Very detailed, very informative. I actually bought DC's Leaf and Leather a couple of years ago, cut it into smaller pieces and use it as a campling soap. Love that scent. Definitely will need to check out Mahana. Thank you Daver!

“Detailed”? Did we watch the same video? If I had a nickel for every time he said “I think it’s all natural, but I don’t know, but it it might be, but I’m not sure…”, I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure I’d have a dollar, but maybe not, but I might. Not much research went into this at all other than him saying here’s a bunch of soaps I like. But doesn’t give any GOOD reasons for Dr. Squatch being “bad” - just that he doesn’t like it and feels like they pander in their commercials. That’s pretty week. And $50 for a bar of soap??? That’s 50 reasons to F#%K off in my humble opinion. That said, I do want to check out DC… maybe some of the others, but I will never spend $50 for a bar of soap. That’s straight up stupid.
You mean camping? I'm confused.
@@thatHRBNGRsoundthen don't nobody cares.
I love Doctor Squatch. Made from all natural ingredients, I think the smell is fine and so do the ladies. 1 bar lasts me 4 weeks and I shower twice a day. Going to try Jeremy's Razors
soaps and shampoos too this week.
Thanks for making this video. I recently tried Dr. Squatch and I’ve been looking forward to my showers ever scents, (I couldn’t pass up on that opportunity, I’m sorry) so needless to say, I was shocked to see your reaction in the previous video. The most valid point in was the fact that they really do just seem to melt in the shower and that’s left me wondering what other alternatives could be out there. I’m likely going to try PAA first and I’ll be pleasantly surprised if they can raise the bar just a little higher. I haven’t used any of the scents you tried, but I’ll say that bay rum was the best of the three I tried by a long shot and I highly recommended you pick this one if you were to ever feel like giving them a second chance. I’m no fragrance guy, but the smell is something that I could only describe as a tropical island bubble gum and I can’t get enough of it.
If you like Bay Rum at all, you will LOVE Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. The owner is a self-professed connoisseur of the bay rum smell. He has several different varieties of it on his site, and of course in their soaps as well. PAA has some of the best feeling soaps on the market, bar none. I think they last a little longer than Squatch, though maybe not dramatically so. But I think they are superior in almost every way.
@@BeastMadeReviews ooooo this is music to my ears. I can’t wait to get my hands on some now!

And that was after an $18 shipping cost for next day shipping. Was $1.79/bar before shipping, or $17.90 for the 10 bar pre-cut loaf. You’re paying $4/bar for their advertising and label.

Dr squatch soap is amazing..... I don't know what this guy talking about
Yeah, I've been using it since the Summer and have much less chest acne than I did using any body wash. All the scents I've gotten have been really nice smelling to me. Dude's got a vendetta.
@@DaveSy 100% facts... bro i love the soap
Big soap got to this guy
@@CSPaffy had to... that Dr Squatch is amazing
Yeah idk what this guy is talking about. I was skeptical of Dr Squatch until I tried it. Now I won't use anything else. The smell is great for the most part and the best thing is I actually FEEL clean when I'm done using it. This guy is just promoting big companies
My girlfriend bought some squatch soaps. I like the smell but they don't seem to go very far and when I found out how expensive they are I don't think I'll be buying them myself.
It did turn me onto using soap over body washes though. The lather is heaps better and I love how my skin feels after
They aren't nearly as expensive as he makes them out to be, just got 6 bars for $28, you gotta watch the sales ( they have 3 weeks out of the month) and even without the sale it like $35 for 6 bars not to mention ive only ordered 3 times and have earned enough Squash dollars for 4 bars....sure if you order a single bar you're going to pay more,but why would you order a single bar and pay for shipping, when you can order enough soap for a year for less than $40 and get shipping free ?
I like Dr. SQUATCH but I don't have much experience with this specific type of soap. I grew up with the generic soaps, supermarket and what not. I'll give your list a try.
Not sure if you'll see/respond to this question given this being a slightly older video for you, but what is your recommendation for someone like me who is looking for a soap, deodorant, and cologne that all have the same scent? I'm looking to have a great scent that radiates off me, but obviously without over doing it.
Thanks for your question, Jason! Actually, Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements (one of my favorite soaps in this video) has many products for all their scents. You can find soaps, deodorants, and colognes (eau de parfum concentration, which is stronger than average), and then other products as well. I really like their products and their scents, and I think both their soaps and deodorants are some of the best I've ever tried. (As well as their shaving stuff). So you can get the same scent across many products. (Here's an affiliate link if you want to go directly to them: bit.ly/3uofv7E)
But you can also try to find soaps and deodorants from companies that sell colognes as well, and often you can find bundles of these together for a bargain. That's great if you already have a favorite cologne and you want to find the products to accompany it. It's a bit of a mixed bag on their quality, though. Sometimes they're good, sometimes they're a waste. So it's kind of a trade. But you can get good deals from time to time.
I did a little research on ingredients like “oak moss and “coumarin” and the information was a little scary ( skin reactions, liver inflammation, carcinogen,etc…). I noticed the some products from Phoenix Shaving contain some of these components. What could you tell us about it?
oak moss and coumarin are still used in fragrances, but with stricter guidelines on the types of ingredients and the amount per volume. With fragrances, the concentration of oil is much higher than in soap or shampoo. And even then, you're talking about minute amounts in perfumes. I don't know the answer to your question about PAA, but I am personally not concerned about it. The percent per volume of oils is way smaller in soap, and you're washing it right off anyway.
You dogging Squatch soap is your opinion. I've tried all those crap soaps you mentioned, and they are not good. They still dry my skin out, and Squatch soap does not. The reason why my skin dries out is because of the chemicals in those other soaps. Squatch is all natural with less than 10 natural ingredients. I've been using Squatch for well over a year, and my skin is never dried out...ever.
well, yes, Chazz, a review is an opinion. What else would it be? But i seriously doubt you have any experience with these soaps, and I think you just want to argue. It's obvious from your dismissal of these clearly superior soaps. Have a good day.
@@BeastMadeReviews Come on, man. You are accusing him of lying and who is to say you didn't lie too. Honestly, I don't care but I'm looking for a really good soap bar but the way you describe Dr. Squatch was unnecessary. You even disliked their comercial!!🤣🤣
No hate thought, it's just funny how you described it.
I have one question though!
Do any of these soap comes with sand like Dr. Squatch? I mean the sand does help believe it or not!
So, since you don't like Dr. Squatch, can you mention one fully natural and with raspy feeling (sand)? Just asking
I want to know before I buy any, but I want your honest answer. Something you would guaranted would work for moisturazing skin.
Sorry if this comment came off ofensive or anything, wasn't my intention!!
Thanks
@@potatolord1221 I never lie in general. But certainly not in a review. There is no motive to do so. As for soap recommendations, look at my video about "Squatch Killers". All of them are great, and if you want a natural one, I have a few suggestions there.
@@BeastMadeReviews well, certainly not everyone lies but they sure as heck exaggerate . 🤷🏽♂️
Thanks for the recommendations?
I was hoping for a more subtle answer but whatever I'll just go for Dr. Squatch. I gotta try that since you spoke so bad of it, kinda makes me want to know for my self what this hate is about.
Thanks though
Have a nice day! 🖖
First off wanna say love your videos! Glad to have someone giving honest reviews. I have been using Dr. Squatch for over a year and THOUGHT it was great.. until I took your recommendation of PAA. They’re still a little cheaper and have huge variety of better scents so I will not be going back! Thank you for helping me discover them
Thanks for sharing! I love PAA, so I'm glad you had a great experience with them!
What's PAA?

Not understanding the hate I just got 6 bars from Dr Squash for $28.00,you gotta watch sales (that they have 3 weeks out of the month lol)im set on soap for like 7 months maybe more
there's no hate from me. I just think there are better soaps out there.
@b34stm1lk interesting take from someone trolling my videos.
@b34stm1lk so far you are the ONLY person stating something as fact. If you don't like the review, just don't watch. Easy.
I love dr squatch, you are not meant to shower twice a day or even everyday.
If you shower properly it will last a long time. The soap is so green and more environmentally friendly then just about anything on the market.
For a man to be ok with dove soap or anything else clearly has no sense of style and doesn’t care about his skin. The truth is that these synthetic chemicals have conditioned the public and corrupted the taste of modern men.
Yes it is expensive. It’s also fantastic for your skin. It’s also American made. It’s also naturally gathered and made by hand. You certainly get what you pay for. American craftsmanship.
Dr squatch is clearly the more premium and permanent option for healthy skin. After 6 months of using squatch I can’t tell the difference between my German shepherds shampoo and my old head and shoulders shampoo.
I usually don’t comment on here, but I am compelled to voice just how wrong you are. As an avid user of squatch I must defend a good product.
You are incorrect, actually. Dr. Squatch is one of the worst soaps I have tried--and I've tested dozens of brands. Some of my favorites are natural and last MUCH longer than Dr. Squatch, meaning that Dr. Squatch is actually very poor quality overall. If you like it, I'm happy for you. But there are much better options on the market, and some are even a better price, too.
@@BeastMadeReviews I can respect your opinion. I can only speak of my experience. Also thank you for the reply!
Put to who it may concern in the beginning to sound extra official
I use zest! Looking for alternative soaps. I have no clue when it comes to luxurious feel to soaps. As long as the soap lasts a long time, cleans my body well, and keeps it hydrated I am good. Different smells are opinion based. If my girlfriend likes the smell then I am good to go.
Buy Outlaw Soaps or Duke Cannon instead, easy
What do you think are your favorite outlaw scents? I tried the Home on the Range bar and I’m not gonna lie it wasn’t my favorite. The scent was a bit too… sickly sweet, I guess. And on top of that the bar didn’t last very long. A good thorough wash felt like it took away a 10th of its mass
@@thatguywholeftacomment6532 cold process soaps have their quirks. Don’t use hot water, try lukewarm or cool. Pat them dry after and leave them on a soap dish that allows air flow. And I’d recommend the gambler if you like more of a rich scent and less of a sweet smell. It’s really rugged and varied. Lust in the dust is awesome too, so is blazing saddles
@@thatguywholeftacomment6532 Hi! I was just looking in the comments (because who doesn't?) and I saw this - go ahead and email us at howdy@liveoutlaw.com and we'll hook ya up with a replacement bar. We're working on a "soap care" video, but in the mean time, it has to be out of standing water - all the handmade soaps are going to be like that, but I know that's frustrating.
@@tylertibbs7193 Thank you, Tyler!! :D
I love how every one of these hating Dr Squatch videos there’s a Dr Squatch ad for the video 😂
Sudsy Bear is the best soap hands down!!
I sweat like a pig so hopefully it'll help me not smell like crap
Hey just finished watching the video and I got to say great work it’s very informative! As a man I’ve felt that company’s tend to make shittier products because normally men tend to care less but I’ve seriously added a couple of the soaps you mentioned on my target list and can’t wait to try them.
I’m not sure if you’ve made a video on it yet but I couldn’t find it but how do you feel about Dr Bronner soaps?
Also, I was surprised by the size of your channel and views, you have great lighting, good camera quality, great angles, and good b roll I honestly believe you should have way more subscribers, might I suggest just as a viewer to work on the thumbnails, it’d be a shame to see your quality content and clear effort go unnoticed. A trendier more clickable and broad thumbnail can cast a wider net for audiences. But definitely earned a subscriber!
thank you for watching! I think you're right about thumbnails, but since I do everything, it's just beyond my ability right now.
Awesome variety and great review of all of them. Some brand I don’t about. Thank you!!!
Thanks for watching!
i gotta say the phoenix artisan future science bar is amazing, i bought dr. squatch and i though it was pretty overrated so i watched this, and immediately ordered and will be ordering again. if you didn't like dr. squatch definitely give that soap a try.
awesome! PAA is so good. I just bought some more for me and some for a friend. 🙂
PAA smells absolutely amazing!!! The only problem I have with it is that they make my skin feel waxy and dry. duke cannon lathers really well! I have also tried usra major and it left my skin feeling smooth. Thats all the soap i tried so far
How does this guy know so much about soap
"Don't buy from Dr. Squatch, buy from my affiliate links!" lol I'm trying squatch for my self.
Nothing wrong with suggesting better products, nothing wrong with providing someone an easy way to get the better products, and nothing wrong with making an affiliate commission for providing someone a convenient link to a superior product. You think your comment shames me, but it's just ignorant.
@@BeastMadeReviews I was never trying to shame you, I just thought it was funny. Every one has an opinion about products, but just because you think certain products are seperior than others is not factual it's an opinion. You have the right to voice your opinion just as I do. But hey guess what... I got my squatch a couple of days ago. It's really good soup. If you have a soap dish it will last much longer! Which is true with pretty much any soap bar. I think you should get some kind of reward for the time you spent to research and put together a video of the soaps you like best. Anyways, thanks for responding and you keep doing you! Get them affliate clicks lol Nice video!
@@BeastMadeReviews Also just some freindly advice, if you feel like someone is just trolling your video in the comment section don't waste your time with a reply, you're just feeding the trolls and wasting your time. You probably already know that but I thought I would just put that out there. I saw you reply to a couple of them hungry trolls lol.
@@Taitmon Way to walk it back, Taitmon.
I love responding to trolls. It makes my day. I've been reviewing for about ten years, so I am very familiar with the comments section.
Btw, I did use the soap saver. I used a soap saver on all the soaps I tested. Squatch is just inferior in every way. But if you like it, I'm glad you enjoy it. (Buy from my affiliate links) :P
@@Taitmon if you really intended this as advice, you wouldn't have made it a public comment. Either way, how nice of you of share your expertise and give advice about how to deal with TH-cam trolls. That's definitely relevant to this video.
After watching this video I ordered five bars from Phoenix. They are so good! I don't think I'll ever go back to shower gel. And what brought me here was the fact that I was looking for Dr. Squatch reviews. 😂
haha! Glad to help! I really love the soap PAA makes. Great company. Glad you love them too!
Daver- from fragrance to professional soap reviewer.
anyone try dr. jekyll soap?
To be honest, I love dr squatch. But I’ll be sure to try some of ur selections. Cremo soap is gas too
It's funny... When I picked up my bottle of "A Whiff of Waffle Cone" I grabbed a bar of "The Abandoned Mansion" to push me over the 'free shipping' threshold and I was just not impressed with the soap at all... The fragrance was great but the quality of the bar was just not what I would expect from a house like IA... Was very disappointed and will not order soap from them again... Personally... Whenever I want to treat myself to a nice soap (not in the Creed kinda way... LOL!!!) I always end up grabbing a bar of Geo F. Trumper's Goat Milk Soap... It's not a 'natural' soap or anything but for me it is the best soap I have ever used and I just love it... Great video as always Daver... Thanks so much for sharing... ^_^
Definitely not impressed with the soap either
this is very cool! i was thinking about buying squatch soap, but now i know much more. Big thanks!
So little hack I have is I dry the soap off with a towel put it back in the box it came in but I take those silica gel packets that we’ll all have gotten and put it in the box with the bar it will absorb any remaining moisture.
I absolutely love the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. I use his shave products and shampoo pucks too.
they're so good!
I swear honest amish soap is the best, smells great is afordable cleans my body and beard very well and if taken care of can last upto 6 mo for one bar.
I really liked Dr. Squatch Pine Tar soap until I realized how hard it was to keep my shower clean. The dark color stains the nooks and crannies. Made my shower look dirty.
I’m a huge Phoenix Artisan fan as well! Have you tried their shampoo pucks? I ditched my higher end salon shampoos for them. Their deodorant is great too!
Well now I need to get one! 😁
Stop going against Dr.squatch soap, just review them without comparing only to Dr.squatch if people want to buy them so be it.
Why don't you do that on your channel, and I'll do this on mine.
Not soap related, but I have the Duke Cannon cooling aftershave. Highly recommend!
I love Duke Cannon! I want to make a video just about them in the future.
I tried it but honestly this guy is sorta right. The only thing they're good at is the advertising
Pine tar is the best soap I've ever used. I used to work forestry and I missed smelling like an ENT from lord of the rings. My skin feels great and my girl digs it. I dont have any more demands out of my soap than that.
Pine Tar does NOT smell like a forest. lol. We have pine forests everywhere here, and this soap is the worst "pine" soap I have smelled.
@@BeastMadeReviews I love the pine tar bar! It doesn’t smell like pines but like an outside forest smell. It’s made from all natural oils and it has activated charcoal! It leaves my skin super soft and smelling great! soaps like dove drys my skin out so much and smells like laundry detergent. I haven’t tried most of the soaps you’ve recommended but I have tired those basic ones like dove. I really like the toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, soaps and deodorant. So it’s a perfect one stop shop for me.
@@BeastMadeReviewsI’ve lived in WA state my entire life. I’m 31 years old. I’m sitting in a bedroom, with an unopened box of Squatch Pine Tar soap in my hand. It’s not too far off on accuracy. I took a slow long inhale…it’s pine. But like a grungy, dry, dirty forest (I supposed all forests are ‘dirty’ but I’m doing the best I can with my description). Notice it’s labeled Pine TAR. Which is why I think it has a messy dirty type of scent. These topics are subjective type topics. Nobody is right or wrong here. We can only say what we feel about the product. There will not be an objective truth found ANYWHERE here.
@@movementencouragedfitness5945 Is that an objective statement? I kid, but this is the type of comment that gets tiring to read. No one is arguing against subjectivity. I made a statement about why I think it doesn't smell like pine, and I mentioned that I live in a town that is literally covered in pine trees. It's not saying that the scent is objectively good or bad. It's a statement about my perception of how the scent is recreated. After my real-world experience, mixed with my professional experience smelling fragrances, I think this is a bad recreation. But if you like it, great. I'm happy for you. You do you.
These are reviews based on scents? I need to know how it feels on my body and that it doesn’t dry out your skin cause dr squat undoes pretty well with that
the review isn't based on the scents of the soaps, but that is one criterion I took into consideration. I mentioned how the soaps feel a few times.
Daver, I didn't know you had a second channel. This is very cool! I like the you know about Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements. Being a wet shaver, I'm a regular customer with quite a collection of their products. They're excellent along with made by excellent people.
Thank you for stopping by! Yeah, I love PAA! Great stuff!
I gotta say Harrys brand smells really good but it would make my skin dry ):
Looking forward to trying the first one on the video !
Thanks for sharing! Yeah, I think cleansing bars like Harry's are trying to err more on the side of cleaning rather than moisturizing. But yes! Definitely check out Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements! The have probably the best moisturizing soap I have ever tried.
Such an underrated channel, thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching!
Have you at all tried/do you like any Sudsy Bear products?
I bought my dad Dr. Squatch. They smell sooo good but some can be drying, depends on the ingredients & it does melt asap
Definitely will have to try out some other bars, but squatch is nice so far🤙
You should! 🙂
Does squatch soap dry your skin out? I like soaps that leave you squeaky clean
@@kingb6047 At least for me, the pine tar and bay rum soaps did not dry me out, and left my skin feeling pretty good.
Pine Tar is the only good soap squatch makes. But it doesn’t last long. Duke Cannon is the best soap hands down.
Is the Ursa Major exfoliating bar soap for the body when taking a bath?
yeah it's a great exfoliating bar for your body
2:08 has to be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard, out of hearing all the dr squatch ads about big soap being bad this guy is still convinced that dove and ivory are “leagues better” naw gtfo.
stupid comment
Hey man! if you haven’t already, can you make a review for best masculine reed diffusers? I can’t seem to find much that stand out, not to mention there’s little to no videos about this topic. I’ve taken a look at dr. Vranjes, or some “promising” sounding ones by Mefrangrance (which I can’t get in Canada) but I haven’t given them a try so I don’t know what they’re like. I’d stick to candles but they don’t last as much, as well as having to put them out when I’m not around. Definitely in need for some solid options with good projection here!
I feel like this dude is hating in my opinion and I’m unsure if he’s trustworthy
I'm not even sure what you're talking about. This video about suggestions of great soaps.
@@BeastMadeReviews the title is quite literally squatch killers
@@razorleaf Yes that's correct. And? You do realize that the point of this video is to say that there are better alternatives, right?
I love my Dr squatch soap!
Ok, have been happy with Squach soap. Smells good & feels good- just got a bar of Duke Cannon Naval Diplomacy @ Lowes! Is this better than Squatch?
Yeah I think Duke Cannon is a lot better than Squatch. I have several products from DC, and they are all very good. I think they are aiming to be more of an alternative to Axe (which it blows them out of the water), but it is better than Squatch in my experience.
Thank you for making this video!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching!
Great video I was thinking about buying me some Dr squatch soap but I ll have to try some of these out
Please do!
The only all natural and non-toxic soap you presented is Ursa Major. The rest of them have Parfums and Propylene Glycol. Not ingredients that should be on skin. Dr Squatch don't have those toxic chemicals. I do agree that they're over-priced.
I disagree. There are several "natural" alternatives here. But my point isn't to offer suggestions that are universally approved by health proponents. These soaps are my recommendations as alternatives to Dr. Squatch. As I said, I think even Dove soap is a better alternative--whether it's natural or not. I'm not focusing on "natural" as a recommendation. As for Propylene Glycol, if it's used as a food additive and considered safe, I think it's safe enough to put on top of your skin and wash off. Your mileage may vary.
Couldn't disagree more. Squatch soap smells great and lasts a long time. I don't understand what people are doing with their soap, but if you use a saver and let it dry it lasts a long time.
I did. I explained that. And I used the same method when testing these soaps. The Squatch soaps I've tried don't last long at all. And all of these soaps lasted a lot longer. To each his own.
I used them once, bought a pack of 6 with the saver and all, DID NOT last long at all, like he said, 2 weeks tops, and the smell doesn't even stick, afterwards everything smelt the same, even right now, I'm on my last bar, Bay Rum. That's why I clicked on this video 😂 I'm looking for alternatives before it runs out, literally used it twice and is now about half the size, yes, with the little "saver"
@@papachonk8103 Try Bearsville Soap Company.
@@papachonk8103 stop putting them near water
I'm noticing that you're talking about "cheap" and "price" quite frequently when determining if you like the soap or not. While price might be a consideration on affordability for some, price shouldn't be a factor when determining quality.
You gotta realize that soaps made with different ingredients is going to affect the soap price. If you look at your "cheap" soaps that you recommend, you will see Lard, Tallow, or Palm Oil as the main ingredient in most cases. While these are perfectly fine ingredients in a soap, there are many people who prefer to avoid these ingredients. So some companies choose to focus on making a vegan alternative, which is gonna be more pricey. While both soaps may be good quality and an awesome soap, it's the ingredients that determine the price. Vegan soaps usually need butters (shea butter, cocoa butter, mango butter, kokum butter, etc...) to help with Longevity, since they aren't using animal products, or palm. And butters aren't "cheap"!
This is why I disagree with using price as a determining factor on whether you like the soap or not. The deciding factor should be based off of whether the soap is a good quality.
Price isn't the determining factor for liking a soap. I like inexpensive soaps as well as expensive ones. One of my favorite soaps in this videos is one of the cheapest in this list.
@@BeastMadeReviews Sorry. It just sounded like that was 1 of the reasons for choosing if you liked a soap or not. My bad.
Me and my dad both use Duke Cannon soaps and we absolutely love them.
They're massive and take a good long while to go all the way through, they smell great, they look great, they feel great, and I'd bet they taste great (don't recommend eating soap).
My favorite part is their aesthetic. They really appeal to manly guys with their actually really great marketing and designs. Their boxes look great and have a unique design to them that makes me love them, it's honestly amazing how much effort they put into a box you'll end up throwing away.
I've used their Busch beer soap, and I love it. My dad's had a couple of them (don't know which one's exactly).
Overrall would definitely recommend them. They're an amazing company, and they make some of the best hygiene products for truly manly men. Definitely worth spending $10 for a massive brick of soap, made to be manly, by manly men.
I’m a Duke Cannon user I tried Dr squatch just to see and it had good sent but I barely got a week out of 1 bar vs a month per bar from Duke with the same level of scent. I just struggle to find a good men’s shampoo/conditioner. I just dint think highly of sqautch and have stuck with duke cannon.
Would it possible to have individual links to the soaps. I heard you talk about them but I forget the name. I'm not entirely sure which soap is which in your description
The links are in the video description. I did describe them in the links, and that corresponds to the time stamps in the video. So if you see a soap you like, look at the time stamp description and match it to the link. 🙂
@@BeastMadeReviews true but if I wanted to try each soap individually I don't want to rewatch the vid. Like in a month or two I'll need more soap and I rather not rewatch the video each time to learn which soap is which.
@@traxdaze that's your prerogative, then. But I think this is the best option.
I have tried so many different bars of soap and deodorants. Dr squatch has been my favorite ever since i bought some last week. I bought toothpaste shampoo and conditioner also. Everything they make is far superior than any other thing i have tried to this point. Dr squatch products smell amazing and my wife loves it. I use to have red broken out underarms and stinky also from using natural deodorant. With the squatch i smell good all day long and have no red pits anymore. My dandruff is gone and my beard dandruff is gone too from using these products. I have tried alot of different products this guy is speaking good about and they may work for other people but none have measured up to the dr squatch products. I have tried way more natural than any of these because i saw them made first hand but still the squatch wins hands down. I would rather go expensive and be happy than to go cheap and feel cheap!
Ever since I started using squatch soap my skin feels great . Doesn't dry me out and smells great. It's expensive yes so it's not for everyone. One bar lasts me about a week , two showers a day . The smell doesn't last all day but who wants to smell like soap all day? That's what cologne is for .
You shouldn't take two showers a day.
