INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

The ideal time for shaving is in the morning, right after a shower and before breakfast. At this time, facial hair—composed mostly of keratin—becomes softer and easier to cut, while the skin is less sensitive. Load the brush with soap or shaving cream to prepare your shaving foam. These shaving preparations serve two purposes: they enhance hair hydration by removing sebum and shield the skin from the razor's harshness.

1. Using Shaving Soap:

Begin by wetting your face, preferably after a shower. Briefly run the brush under warm water, then work up a thick, creamy lather by swirling it in the soap bowl without pressing down too hard. Apply the lather in circular motions to your face for one to two minutes to soften and lift the beard hairs.

2. Using Shaving Cream:

After wetting your face and soaking the brush with warm water, place a small amount of cream on the tip of the brush. Lather directly onto your face for one to two minutes as described earlier. Alternatively, some prefer to apply a dab of cream directly onto each cheek and emulsify it with the shaving brush.

MAINTENANCE

To keep your shaving brush in excellent condition for years to come, it's essential to rinse it thoroughly after each use to remove any remaining soap or cream. Gently shake off excess water, then lightly pat it dry with a towel. Finally, store the brush upside down on a suitable stand to allow proper drainage and drying.
