This will also increase the lather‘s density, soften your whiskers, and allow them to stand up, allowing the razor to sit close to the base of the hair follicle.

A good shaving soap is economically a great choice as it lasts a long time, and it is a wonderful option for your skin because it adds, not detracts, moisture. Ingredients such as olive oil, shea butter and avocado will do just that, nourish and protect skin during and after the shave. Our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/traditional-shaving-soap\"\u003eShaving Soaps\u003c\/a\u003e are all this and more as we've also added bentonite clay which brings slip to help the razor glide over the skin, and colloidal oats which help protect and soothe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e* We used to sell a shaving brush with the bowls as a set, but found that customers have different preferences for the type of brush they like to use with a shaving soap.
