Handcrafted Plant Based Shaving Oil

Designed as a pre-shave oil, this handcrafted formula combines jojoba, castor, and argan oils with vitamin E and cedarwood, rosemary, and tea tree essential oils.

Jojoba oil is in many instances used for lightweight hydration, argan oil for conditioning, and tea tree oil for its antimicrobial properties.

Shaving and beard care engage touch before, during, and after the shave. Pre-shave oils and shaving creams are worked into the skin and hair with warm, slow, circular pressure, which adds glide for the razor (Robbins, 2012). Beard oils, balms, and conditioning blends are massaged through the beard to the skin underneath, adding oils that smooth the hair surface and reduce fiber friction (Robbins, 2012). The skin and hair of the face contain touch receptors, and the pressure of working a product in activates them (McGlone et al., 2014; Löken et al., 2009). Slow, rhythmic pressure is associated with reduced stress and relaxation (Field, 2010).

Anyone with a skin condition, allergies, or sensitivities should consult a physician or dermatologist before use.

Pairing Note

Aroma: Topical interaction paired with aroma becomes aromatic‑surface experience. Cultures combine botanicals with oils, creams, and hair treatments because aroma carries symbolic meaning, lineage, and spatial identity (Classen, Howes & Synnott, 1994). These practices persist because aromatic pairing strengthens emotional recall (Herz, 2016) and supports cultural continuity (Assmann, 2011).
