Plisson 1808 Antique Brass Handle & European Gray Genuine Badger Shaving Brush

DESCRIPTION

The design of this model is one of the oldest created by Plisson. Its pure and geometric lines give it a timeless dimension, making it more than a shaving accessory but a decorative object in its own right.

Made in France with nickel-plated copper, this model is heavier than our other shaving brushes: it ensures a good, ergonomic, reliable and pleasant grip, to give you an unbeatable shaving experience. 

The European Grey bristle is one of the most popular in our range. Ideal for those seeking a close and invigorating shave, it offers the perfect compromise between softness, responsiveness and firmness. This tuft also has an emulsifying power that allows you to obtain a thick and creamy lather. Your skin is thus stimulated and ready to be shaved.  

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

1/ With the shaving soap: Wet the shaving brush lightly with warm water and make moderate circular movements on the soap, previously placed in your bowl. Once you have obtained a creamy lather, apply it to your wet skin, continuing the circular movements for 1 to 2 minutes. This will stimulate your skin, soften and straighten the hairs of your beard to make shaving easier.

2/ With the shaving cream: Once your face is wet and the shaving brush subtly moistened with warm water, place a dab of cream on the hair of the shaving brush, in a shaving bowl or directly on each cheek and proceed to spread it out, using a circular movement. When the shaving brush comes into contact with the cream, an emulsifying reaction will automatically take place, creating a moisturising foam. 

MAINTENANCE

To preserve the effectiveness of your shaving brush, rinse it with warm water after each use to remove any traces of cream or soap. Squeeze out the bristles and rub them gently on a clean, dry towel. You can then store it on your stand, preferably upside down to help remove any remaining moisture.
