Grooming Dept

YMMV!

I’ve found after a year of testing preshaves, slathering oils and/or butters don’t work, at all! They clog the razor, they don’t get absorbed into the skin, they don’t provide lasting or effective post-shave effect and some interfere with lather.

Exfoliants and scrub face washes are not effective as an effective preshave and/or don’t provide any skin protection. One doesn’t need to remove dead skin or remove oil from the skin. In fact they’re an irritant. One gets exfoliation from shaving, the blade and brush (face lathering) provide enough exfoliation.

I found that waiting to sooth the skin with post-shave products is not as effective as providing an ultra protective preshave that can penetrate the ephemeris and prevent Transdermal Water Loss (TWL).

The bottom line is that 2 things need to happen before shaving (stressing the skin): Protect the skin as much possible and keep it hydrated.

The face-wash is a companion to the preshave and will focus more on TWL concerns (the preshave will get slicker in later generations next year). And when I get to the post-shave products I’ll explain why and how I designed them. This is all opus in profectus. Please bare with me

Thank you so much too all the people who have helped me make this preshave a better product than when I started.

sounds good, when can we buy some?

I've tried pre-shave oils and creams and even soaps in the past and didn't find much use for them, if I'm being honest.  oils clog the razor, as you mention.

I shave my head with a razor 2-3X/week.  is your pre-shave good enough to shave with, without having to add additional soap/cream?

Thanks for asking. The jars are here. I just need to design the labels, and make hella more

I heard grooming Dept. was involved in a CWS scent release. Was wondering when that was going to get released. Looking forward to grabbing that!

Sorry, my mind is not working well since the Seahawks lost this afternoon. What is “CWS”?

Somehow the cat got out of the bag

I'm honored to collaborate with Sean @ Maol Grooming

The first Janus tallow release will be based on a scent designed by Sean. It's amazing! I have had the essential oils for a while. We wanted to release the soap this summer. But my personal issues got in the way as they have gotten in my way to releasing my other products.

The soap will only be available from Top of The Chain. It'll be available at the same time as my other upcoming soaps. Stay tuned.

Hi CastleShave Carmine has carried my soaps since last year! I'm grateful to Carmin's for his patience and support! I just have not made soaps in quite a while now.

I've got three of Sean's aftershaves, and couldn't be happier with them. Aside from Chatillon Lux, Maol Grooming aftershaves are the king of my den. I'm excited about this one.
