Shaving Soap, Cedar Eucalyptus

Specially formulated to lather best with a shaving brush, this shaving soap builds a dense, stable lather that works as a great cream for wet shaving. Cocoa & shea butters plus vegetable-based stearic acid generate a thick, dense cream, and a modest addition of coconut oil opens up the texture just enough to lift lather off the soap. Added vegetable glycerin gives the razor extra glide and moisturizes.  Scent Cedar Eucalyptus Our flagship fragrance, it combines geographically distant evergreens, with earthy red cedar, camphorous and sweet blue gum eucalyptus, and bright, slightly spicy notes of cypress from Spain. Directions Soak for 2-3 minutes in warm water, along with a brush. Shake excess water from the brush and swirl vigorously for at least half a minute or more to load the bristles, adding water as necessary. Build lather in a mug, scuttle, bowl, in hand, or directly on the face (additional water may be necessary). Add more soap as required by swirling brush on the soap. Always perform a patch test first, may contain allergens for some people.  Ingredients Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Water, Lye, Coconut Oil, Stearic Acid, Fragrance*, Vegetable Glycerin, Clay, Rosemary Leaf Extract (antioxidant) *crafted exclusively from essential oils Details Our cold-process soaps are a blend of natural fatty acids found in oils and butters, and pure alkali (lye) which converts those fatty acids into soap and naturally occurring glycerin. With the lye completely consumed in the process, small amounts of moisturizing butters and oils are left in the soap. Different oils yield different properties, with this shaving soap structured to yield a thick, stable lather with inherently gentle cocoa and shea butter. A portion of coconut oil is added to give the soap the lift required to whip into a cream. Net Weight 3.5 oz.
