Hop Infused Pre Shave Oil (Various Scents)

[tab name=”Description”]

If you suffer from skin irritation, razor burn, or ingrown hairs after a shave, you need a preshave oil!

Applied before your favourite shaving cream, the oil will keep your skin hydrated and protected. Most importantly, the oil softens facial hair, giving you a closer and more comfortable shave.

Our pre-shave oil is infused with hops purchased directly from a Canadian hop farm in British Columbia. Hops are a strong anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory, help the skin stay moisturized, and is a natural astringent that tightens pores.

The shave oil is formulated with a blend of seven oils known specially selected to be quick absorbing and moisturizing– including organic jojoba oil and meadowfoam oil. Skin nourishing vitamin E is added to help protect the skin and extend the shelf life our the product.

Available in four scents including an unscented version.

Each Shave Oil is made with seven complimentary oils infused with Canadian hops, supplemented by vitamin E:

• Organic Sunflower Oil: A lightweight oil that doesn’t feel greasy. High in vitamin E.
• Fractionated Coconut Oil: Another lightweight oil easily absorbed by your skin and highly moisturizing.
• Meadowfoam Oil: Similar to Jojoba and your sebum and is known to be a powerful moisturizer.
• Organic Almond Oil: Creates a barrier on your skin and allows your skin to absorb more water and protects from water loss.
• Organic Safflower Oil: Ideal for dry skin and easily absorbed
• Vitamin E: Highly skin nourishing, Vitamin E also protects the beard oil from oxidation, improving shelf life.
• Hops: A strong anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory, help the skin stay moisturized and are a natural astringent.
