Martin De Candre 'L'Original' Shaving Soap 200g
Category: Shave Soap
Scent Notes
L'Original features a clean, refreshing blend of lavender, mint, and rosemary essential oils. The result is a crisp herbal fragrance that is elegant, invigorating, and timeless without being overpowering.
A Word from the Manufacturer
Martin de Candre L'Original was the first shaving soap introduced by the French artisan in the 1980s. Produced using traditional hot-process saponification with exclusively vegetable oils, the soap is dried for several months to concentrate the formula and refine its fragrance. This artisanal process creates an exceptionally rich, creamy lather while naturally retaining glycerin without added preservatives.
Directions for Use
Soak your shaving brush in warm water and gently shake out excess water. Swirl the brush over the soap using circular motions until well loaded. Build the lather in a shaving bowl or directly on the face, adding water gradually until a dense, glossy lather develops. After shaving, rinse the soap lightly and allow it to dry with the lid off before closing.
Ingredients
Aqua (Water), Stearic Acid, Palmitic Acid, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Glycerin, Parfum (Fragrance), Sodium Chloride, Eugenol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool.
Performance Profile
L'Original produces an exceptionally dense, creamy lather with outstanding slickness, cushion, and razor glide. Its concentrated vegetable-based formula loads quickly and requires very little soap per shave, allowing a single 200g jar to provide well over a year of daily use while leaving the skin feeling smooth, comfortable, and refreshed.
Pro Tip
Start with a lightly damp shaving brush and slowly add water as you build the lather. Martin de Candre's concentrated formula performs best with gradual hydration, producing an incredibly slick, glossy lather using only a small amount of soap.
