Signature Shave Cream

SKU: SC-001
  • The product that made us famous
  • All-natural lavender, peppermint & rosemary essential oil scent
  • Smoothest imaginable shave with a brush or without, paraben-free

The product that first put us on the map. Specially formulated for easily irritated skin, and for those prone to breakouts and razor bumps. Leaves skin moist and conditioned, not dry and tight. Lightly and naturally scented with our custom Signature blend of French lavender, Washington peppermint and Tunisian rosemary essential oils. Paraben-free.

If you're even a bit skeptical, read how the uber-traditional London Spectator, the oldest continuously published magazine in the English language (since 1828) did a run-down on the world's top shaving products and recommended only one non-British brand: us! We're mighty proud, especially because the top British brands sell for twice our price.

Maximum allowable purchase is 3 jars per order. Why? Because there was a gray market operating outside the US and more importantly, our products aren't formulated for extra-long shelf-life. This shave cream should be used within 6 - 9 months from date of purchase.

6oz/170g

Usage Instructions

Just scoop out a small amount with your fingers, a dollop about the size of a marble, and spread it on your beard (which you've prepared by splashing some hot water on it or soaking it with a hot towel--also, you want to leave your beard area very moist before applying the cream). A little bit of cream goes a long way, so make sure to massage the cream in with your fingers, spreading it around as you go. If you're using it with your fingers, the cream won't radically build up in volume like a gel, but it will lather up a bit and spread. If you're using it with a brush, it will lather up quite nicely. Add cream (if necessary) to cover your beard, then shave, using lots of hot water to clear the razor as you go. When you're done, you should notice a difference in how your skin feels--smooth, soft and without irritation. If you have a real problem beard, you might also want to check out our pre-shave oil. Online shaving forum like badgerandblade.com or shavemyface.com will provide more information than you could ever imagine or desire on all things shaving.

People who like it

say it gives them the closest, most comfortable shave they've ever had, that they don't get cuts, nicks or razor bumps anymore, like how their skin feels soft and moisturized after they shave, love the natural, not-too-strong signature scent

People who didn't like it

prefer a gel or a foam (don't like shaving with a cream), don't like the signature scent
