Sandalwood Shaving Cream
Sandalwood Shaving Cream
Description
Description
A sandalwood shaving cream with nothing in it to sting: free from alcohol, petroleum, and sulphates. Its job is simple and it does it well; soften the hair before the blade arrives, which is most of what prevents razor burn.
A little works up quickly, by hand or with the brush. The scent is warm and dry, present during the shave and gone politely after. 100ml.

Sandalwood Aftershave Balm
An aftershave balm for skin the shave leaves irritated. Alcohol free, with witch hazel, a natural astringent, to settle nicks that sting. Lightweight and non-greasy; it absorbs quickly and leaves no film.
The scent is sandalwood: warm, woody, and matched to our shaving soap, so the ritual ends where it began.
100ml, a few dabs a day. Also in Aegean Citrus.
20 DE Blades
Double edge razor blades in Swedish Cr13 steel, with a platinum-sputtered coating and no PTFE. A 13N edge; keen enough to cut cleanly, gentle enough for sensitive skin. One blade cuts level with the skin, not below it, which is where ingrown hairs start.
Packs run from five to fifty. Each blade is double sided, individually wrapped. They fit all Kronos razors and any standard double edge razor.

Frequent Questions
Will the shaving cream irritate sensitive skin?
No. It's made without alcohol, petroleum or sulphates, so there's nothing in the formula to cause a sting.
What does sandalwood shaving cream smell like?
Warm and dry: noticeable through the shave, then fading quietly once you rinse.
How do I use the shaving cream?
Massage a small amount into wet skin, by hand or with a brush, before you shave. It builds up quickly, so a little covers the job.
What does the shaving cream come packaged in?
A water-based formula in a 100ml aluminium tin, boxed in a card carton.
This sandalwood shaving cream leaves out what causes razor burn on reactive skin: no alcohol, no petroleum, and no sulphates to sting. Its only job is to soften the hair before the blade arrives, so the razor cuts it instead of pulling it.
Alcohol, petroleum, and sulphates are all common in shaving cream, and all things that sting skin already irritated by a blade. This sandalwood shaving cream leaves each one out, so the formula's one job is to soften hair and let a blade glide smoothly across it.
Razor burn starts when a blade meets hair, and skin, that has not been prepared. Softened hair cuts more easily, so the blade does not need to press or repeat a pass, the same less-but-better discipline used across the Kronos care range and the Sandalwood Aftershave Balm that follows it. Both are alcohol free, and both carry the same sandalwood scent through the shave and after it.
It does not claim to out-lather every shave cream men buy off a supermarket shelf. Its narrower job, softening hair and leaving out known irritants, pairs naturally with a shaving brush to work the lather in. Sandalwood is the scent; the work of avoiding known irritants is done entirely by what the cream leaves out.
