Tips & Recommendations
- Packed with natural peppermint & eucalyptus oils which stimulate skin
and llift the beard hairs. This product is highly recommended for thicker
or more coarse beards.
- Licorice. It isn't just for the movies anymore! Watch as, over time, licorice
root extract evens skin, tones and helps to work against those dark spots
that can happen from ingrown hairs or razor bumps.
- Use a nickel sized amount, work together with fingers, then apply to cleansed,
damp face. Apply enough to coat the beard and take care to use more wher eyou
have more sensitivity with your shave.
- Air is for breathing, not shaving! Avoid the dryness found with mass produced
shaving products, which are packing with air (foam) and alcohol. The use of
air packed shave products puts your razor blades against the skin, leading
to razor bumps, burn and a less than stellar shave.
- Wheat Proteins. It's the supplement for the skin - hydrates the skin and
firms things up. Better than ab crunches.
Product Q&A
Can I use a face scrub before I shave?
- Absolutely! The Face Scrub, used twice a week, helps to lift grime from
the face and beard for a better shave. The Anthony Face Scrub is designed
to do the job without over exfoliating.
When is the best time to shave?
- The jury is out; shaving in the shower is the best place for a more comfortable
shave. The steam from the shower starts the softening of the beard. Combine
this with the right Anthony Shave Product and it will be smooth sailing.
Can I use more than recommended?
- Less really is better! It's concentrated and designed to work with out
a foam.
