| Viva! El Espiritu del Hombre - Spanish Fig & Nutmeg shaving soap |
|
For years, most of us have been grabbing mass-marketed cans of shaving foam, but for a more opulent experience try a bowl of Bath House's luxury shaving soap. It’s the opposite of everything many of us have ever known: It’s a shaving soap, not a gel or cream; it’s in a hand-turned wooden bowl, not a metal can; it’s a luxurious experience, not a mundane one. Used with a shaving brush for a traditional shave, this vegetable based soap creates an unbelievably creamy lather, with natural extracts of glycerin, fig milk, vitamin E and nutmeg extract to soothe, nourish and moisturize. The warm spicy scent has notes of Spanish fig, nutmeg and clove, on a base of sandalwood, cedar and patchouli oil. >> Details |

| Is this the ideal razor for wet shaving? |
|
A testament to design and function, Merkur's trac razor coupled with a Merkur twin blade cartridge may be the ideal wet shaving razor. This handsome award winning superbly balanced razor has an easy-to-hold slightly curved pistol-grip handle that angles the blade perfectly for a smooth, close, comfortable shave. Unlike the straight razor (cut throat) or the safety razor (double edge), there's no learning curve with the trac. In addition, the Merkur twin blade cartridge is thinner than cartridges with more than two blades, making it much easier to maneuver around the curves and uneven surfaces of the chin, jawline, moustache region, and neck. >> Details |
