Natural Cosmetics for Men – Why Wet Shaving with Real Soap Wins
Share
Natural cosmetics for men have long remained a niche topic. That is changing right now – and not without reason.
The problem with canned shaving cream
Most men know the drill: press the can, white foam comes out, shave, rinse. Quick, uncomplicated, cheap. But what's really in the can?
Synthetic surfactants (often SLS or SLES), propellants, preservatives, lubricating additives. It doesn't smell like anything special and hardly nourishes the skin after shaving. Many men who regularly suffer from razor burn, redness or dry skin after shaving don't wonder if it's due to the shaving cream – even though it often is.
What makes shaving soap from pure natural oils different
A real shaving soap – made by the cold process from vegetable oils – has three advantages over canned shaving cream:
Foam quality: The lather from a real shaving soap is creamier and denser. It adheres better, holds the blade better and protects the skin more effectively during shaving.
Care: Natural glycerin, which is a byproduct of cold saponification, is retained in our soaps. It nourishes the skin during shaving – instead of drying it out. Castor oil in our Cedar Shaving Soap also ensures a particularly smooth, gliding lather.
Skin afterwards: Aloe Vera in our shaving soap soothes the skin directly after shaving. Many men no longer need a separate aftershave.
The Cedar Shaving Set from Tyrol
Our shaving set consists of two parts that belong together:
Cedar Shaving Soap with Aloe Vera – handmade in Wörgl with organic cedarwood oil, aloe vera, shea butter and castor oil. Warm, masculine, powerful.
Olive wood shaving bowl with lid – natural, water-resistant, each bowl is unique. Protects the soap between uses.
A shaving brush is needed to lather the soap in the bowl.
As a gift
The shaving set is one of our most thoughtful gifts for men – because it doesn't just "smell good", but is truly useful and used daily. Plastic-free packaging, handmade in Tyrol.
