Shaving soap

Description

An ancient method

Traditional shaving, a method passed down through generations, remains prized for its impeccable results and ritualistic character. Unlike modern disposable or electric solutions, it uses a shaving brush and a safety razor to prepare the skin and ensure a close shave without irritation. This artisanal approach stands out for its elegance and ability to transform an everyday task into a real moment of self-care.

A special moment

Using a solid shaving soap immediately offers a superior sensory experience. The creamy, rich lather created when you whisk the soap into a bowl with a shaving brush is not only pleasant to apply, but also optimally prepares the skin and beard for a gentle and effective shave. The lather acts as a lubricant, allowing the blade to glide effortlessly over the skin and cut hairs accurately, while minimising the risk of cuts or burning.

A natural product

Traditional soaps are often formulated from plant-based ingredients, unlike aerosolised shaving gels and foams, which can contain potentially irritating chemicals. The oils and butters, such as coconut or cocoa butter used in our formula, nourish and moisturise the skin.

Besides these skin benefits, traditional shaving is also environmentally friendly. Solid shaving soaps last much longer than aerosols and help reduce plastic waste. Moreover, they are economically beneficial: the initial investment in accessories is more than compensated by the longevity of the products.

All benefits

For the ecologically conscious man or woman, or simply for those who aspire to rediscover an authentic ritual, the traditional method represents an advantageous alternative. It provides a precise shave while taking care of the skin and the environment, reviving a practice rooted in respectful, refined know-how.

Preservation

To make the most of your soap in ideal conditions, you shouldn’t leave it in stagnant water. The ideal solution is to use a soap dish, such as one of these.
