Joris Estérel Blue Chrome Finish Shaving Brush - High Mountain White Fibre

The Plisson Joris Estérel Blue shaving brush combines the depth of an intense blue with the brilliance of a chrome finish. Crafted from solid brass, its handle features a luminous lacquered surface and an elegant, contemporary silhouette. The contrast between the rich blue colour, polished metal details and soft appearance of the knot creates a harmonious design that reflects the craftsmanship of Maison Plisson.

Inspired by the blue tones of the Mediterranean landscape, Estérel Blue evokes the meeting of the sea and the coastal hills. Its glossy lacquer finish enhances the richness of this distinctive shade, while the chrome details add a refined, modern touch. The gently curved, barrel-shaped handle provides a stable and comfortable grip, with a balanced weight that makes it particularly pleasant to use during traditional wet shaving.

This shaving brush is fitted with High Mountain White Fibre, a synthetic fibre designed to reproduce the softness and flexibility of the finest natural badger hair. Particularly suitable for sensitive skin, it helps work shaving soap or cream into a rich, creamy lather. Durable, easy to maintain and quick-drying, it also offers an excellent alternative for those who prefer shaving accessories without animal-derived bristles.

Available in standard size 12, this shaving brush features a removable, screw-mounted knot that can be replaced when needed, allowing the handle to be enjoyed for years to come. Handmade in Plisson's French workshops, it pairs beautifully with the matching Estérel Blue razors and shaving sets for an elegant, coordinated shaving ritual.

For optimal shaving results, prepare your face with warm water, ideally after a shower, to soften the beard hair and facilitate lather preparation.

With shaving soap: dampen the shaving brush with warm water, then work it in moderate circular motions over the soap, directly in its bowl, without pressing down excessively on the knot. Continue until a rich, creamy lather develops. Apply the lather to the damp face using circular movements for one to two minutes to distribute the product evenly, gently massage the skin, soften the beard hair and lift it in preparation for shaving.

With shaving cream: after dampening the shaving brush with warm water, place a small amount of cream onto the tip of the knot. Work the cream directly onto the face using circular motions for one to two minutes. Alternatively, apply a small amount of cream to each cheek or into a shaving bowl before working it into a lather with the brush.

Once the lather has been evenly distributed, shave using your preferred razor with precise, controlled movements and without excessive pressure. Reapply shaving lather before any additional pass.

After each use, rinse the knot thoroughly with warm water to remove all traces of shaving soap or cream. Avoid very hot water, which may damage the shaving brush knot.

Gently remove excess water by lightly pressing the knot between your fingers, without pulling or twisting it. Then carefully brush the knot against a clean, dry towel and place the shaving brush on a suitable stand with the knot facing downwards to encourage thorough drying.

To preserve the appearance of the Estérel Blue lacquered handle and its chrome finish, gently wipe the surfaces with a soft cloth after use. Avoid harsh or abrasive cleaning products and rubbing that could scratch or dull the finishes. Do not leave the shaving brush immersed in water for prolonged periods.

Choose soaps and creams specifically formulated for traditional wet shaving and avoid products with an excessively acidic pH, as they may weaken the shaving brush knot and accelerate wear. Store your shaving brush in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from persistent moisture.

Suitable for all skin types, particularly sensitive skin.
