We are pleased to announce we are now an official UK stockist of the wonderful Tabula Rasa artisan shaving products. Hailing from Berlin Germany the Tabula Rasa shaving soap has a consistency somewhere between a putty-like soap and a traditional shaving cream which provides for a top notch performance. Tabula Rasa cream/soaps come in a fantastic range of scents including Dark Lavender, Olibanum (Frankincense), Patchouli, Herbs, Vetiver & Tangerine, Cardamom, and Steampunk their latest scent, the fragrance Steampunk honours its name: it is both nostalgic and hypermodern. Cedarwood blends with a velvety violet to create an intense “Amour Fou”, complemented by glowing Hesperides softly bedded on a gentle, skin-close and warm base of elemi and cashmere. If you have yet to try the Tabula Rasa shaving cream/soap give it a go, these products are truly first class! For the best shaving result Tabula Rasa have the following suggestions to lather-up the soap.
1. Moisten shaving brush and shake out well.
2. Spread a Hazelnut-sized portion of Tabula Rasa over the palm of your hand and use the shaving brush as if it were a paintbrush.
3. When the hand appears evenly covered with soap, squeeze the lather with your fingers from the brush and hold it in your palm.
4. Adding a little water to the tips of your shaving brush if required continue to palm lather, whipping the soap into a thick foam until it holds its shape.
5. Once you get the lather to your liking, apply to the face as you normally would with your shaving brush and proceed with your shave.
The full range of Tabula Rasa shaving cream/soaps and aftershave gels are now available in the UK for the first time exclusively at The Gentleman's Groom Room Dundee, Scotland.
