Shaving Brush
Treat your skin and nature well with this vegan shaving brush. Experience the pleasures of smooth and sustainable shaving without ingrown hair or irritation.
What is a shaving brush?
Until a few decades ago, most of the people who shaved used a shaving brush. However, with the advent of shaving foam, this technique gradually lost its popularity. However, it is a tool that is far from obsolete when it comes to caring for your skin, whether you shave your beard, legs, underarms or bikini line.
Indeed, shaving brushes can be used to lather up shaving products that only lather with friction, such as shaving soap or cream. These products are often better for your skin than shaving foams because they contain more natural ingredients and are less aggressive to your skin. They also last longer because they require less product per shave and are more environmentally friendly because they come in aluminium-free containers, unlike shaving foams stored in cans.
What are the advantages of the Bambaw shaving brush?
The Bambaw synthetic shaving brush is therefore a tool that allows you to use more environmentally friendly products for shaving, but also provides a better result as it has many other advantages than simply spreading your shaving cream or soap.
• It prepares your hair before shaving
• This results in a better quality of the foam
One of the most important elements of a quality shave is the formation of a good lather. The thicker the shaving foam , the easier it is for the razor to glide over the skin, which reduces the post-shave burning sensation. A shaving brush often gives a denser result than products that lather automatically, as it adds more moisture to the lather and thus thickens it.
• It exfoliates your skin
In addition, brushing removes dirt, dust and dead skin cells, which helps prevent pimples and ingrown hairs. So that's another benefit of the synthetic shaving brush that helps you take care of your skin.
• It is even better for beginners
The vegan shaving brush allows for a generous layer of lather which gives the perfect protection and enable the safety razor's blade to slide gently against your skin. Eliminate all kinds of razor burns with the proper preparation of the skin. Because it prevents ingrown hair and leaves your skin clear and smooth, it makes the Bambaw synthetic shaving brush the best ally for beginners.
• The Bambaw shaving brush has cruelty free bristles
Traditional shaving brushes are made of badger or boar hair. With badgers or boars being raised on farms and then violently killed for make-up, most shaving brushes turn out to be inhumanely made. Fortunately, the Bambaw synthetic shaving brush is made of nylon, an even better alternative to its animal-based counterparts. Besides keeping the animals safe and sound, the Bambaw bristles do not smell, dry faster and do not fall out. The softness of nylon bristles is designed to create the best lather without irritating the skin, which is not always the case with badger bristles, which are often considered too soft, or boar bristles, on the other hand, which are considered too hard on the skin and cause irritation. |

Our hygiene products are bad for the environment
Shaving foam does not require a shaving brush but is an environmentally hazardous product due to its composition and packaging. Indeed, shaving foams often contain chemicals that are not only bad for the skin, but are also extremely polluting, both during manufacture, as they produce greenhouse gases, and when they end up in the water, as they are dangerous for marine life.
In addition, the containers in which shaving foam is stored are often not recyclable and therefore end up in landfill sites even though they take more than 500 years to decompose.
Returning to a more traditional shave to take care of the planet
As self-care practices seduce more and more people, traditional shaving is coming back as the best way to achieve a smooth shave without creating tons of waste!
The shaving brush might not be seen as the protagonist; it undoubtedly plays a vital role in the zero-waste shaving experience. Indeed, it is the greatest at foaming up shaving soap to create a rich lather that provides the smoothest shave. Using a synthetic shaving brush thus enable to avoid shaving foams and gels that come in aluminium cans or plastic packaging and are harmful to the environment.

What is the shaving brush made of?

For daily washing, simply rinse your shaving brush thoroughly so that the soap or shaving cream runs off completely and then leave it to air dry.
On a less regular basis, your shaving brush may need a more thorough wash, in which case, after rinsing, you can clean it with a bit of regular soap, then soak it in clear water for a few minutes. Next, put it a bit longer in a solution of half clear water and vinegar, and finish by rinsing thoroughly. If you feel that the smell or the dirt has not yet completely disappeared, you can repeat the operation 2 or 3 times.
How to store it?
Between uses, it is best to let the shaving brush air dry, preferably in a place away from a direct heat source. The Bambaw synthetic shaving brush has the advantage of being able to stand on its own and can therefore be simply placed on a surface in your bathroom.
