Essentiel Fibre Initiation Shaving Set

The Essentiel Synthetic Fibre Shaving Set brings together everything needed to discover the traditional wet shaving ritual. It includes a synthetic fibre shaving brush inspired by White High Mountain badger, a clear acrylic stand, a Limoges porcelain bowl and a shaving soap, providing a complete shaving routine from lather preparation to brush care.

Soft and supple, the White High Mountain-style synthetic fibre is particularly well suited to sensitive skin. Handcrafted in Plisson's workshops in France, it offers excellent comfort while being perfectly suited to a vegan lifestyle. Its lightweight, durable acetate handle provides a comfortable grip for everyday use. Offered in size 12, the brush produces a rich, creamy lather with ease.

This set is an elegant introduction to Plisson's expertise and makes a refined gift.

The best time to shave is in the morning, just after a shower and before breakfast. At this time of day, the beard hair is softer and easier to cut, while the skin is less sensitive.

Prepare a rich lather using a shaving brush and your favourite Plisson shaving soap or cream. Apply the lather to your damp face using circular motions to lift and soften the beard hair. Shave in the direction of hair growth using light, controlled strokes. For a closer shave, reapply the lather and shave gently against the grain if your skin allows.

Finish by rinsing your face with cool water to refresh the skin, then apply an aftershave balm to soothe and moisturise.

To preserve the quality of your shaving brush for years to come, rinse the knot thoroughly after each use to remove any traces of shaving cream or soap. Gently remove excess water, then lightly dry the bristles with a towel before storing the brush upside down on a suitable stand.
