Shaving Soap - Tundra Artica 4.3 metal

Reformulation in Beta 4.3 of our classic Tundra Artica shaving soap (originally born in the beta 4.1 formulation).

The name derives from the geographical area called Arctic Tundra, where the vegetable additives used in this soap find their natural habitat:

• the Icelandic lichen (soothing, purifying, antibacterial, calming)
• the cranberry (suitable for sensitive skin, soothing and toning, gives freshness and vitality).

Fragrance: to recall the environment of the Arctic Tundra, we relied on the Agar Wood fragrance but harmonized to convey a feeling of open, fresh spaces and with a markedly woody perception of shrubs.

The logo on the soap is “hammered” as it was used to do at the beginning of the last century, before the advent of printing machines.

The primary packaging is represented by our classic aluminum packaging, to better preserve and make the shaving soap easily usable.

We can proudly define the product as 100% MADE IN ITALY, in its entirety.

Usage advice

Our formulations contain active ingredients that, in order to give the best perfomance, need to solubilize and/or melt. The maximum performance can be obtained in this way:

• cover the soap surface with a thin veil of hot water for few minutes. The quantity of water needed may vary depending on your water hardness and the rate of humidity of the soap, a correct quantity is when the whole soap surface is covered by water,
• soak a badger shaving brush (being it the best perfomer when it comes to water absorbing),
• rinse it well and then pour the thin veil of water that bloomed the soap on the knot, and then start loading (20-30 seconds),
• face/bowl lather without adding water.
