Description

Product information "Captain Fawcett’s Shaving Cream"

Captain Fawcett Expedition Reserve Shaving Cream – Luxurious Lather with a British Gentleman’s Fragrance

A concentrated premium shaving cream for a close and comfortable traditional wet shave. It whips into a rich, cushioning lather that softens facial hair and improves razor glide. Finished with Captain Fawcett’s green and woody Expedition Reserve fragrance of pine needle, frankincense, tobacco, sandalwood and amber. Made in Great Britain.

Captain Fawcett Expedition Reserve Shaving Cream turns the traditional wet shave into an elegant British grooming ritual. Its concentrated formula produces a generous, finely textured lather from only a small amount of cream and distributes smoothly across the skin.

The creamy lather surrounds the stubble, helps soften coarse facial hair and creates a cushioning layer between the skin and the blade. This allows the razor to travel more smoothly around the contours of the face and neck. The cream is suitable for safety razors, straight razors and modern cartridge systems.

Rich lather and controlled razor glide

Stearic acid, myristic acid, coconut acid and glycerin form the foundation of its rich, creamy lather. When worked with a shaving brush, the cream develops a stable consistency that lifts the whiskers and supports a controlled shave.

The cushioning lather can help reduce tugging and the need to repeatedly shave the same area. Thorough preparation, a sharp blade and minimal pressure are equally important for limiting post-shave redness and irritation.

The Expedition Reserve fragrance

The shaving cream carries Captain Fawcett’s celebrated Expedition Reserve Signature fragrance. This green, woody fougère is inspired by botanical expeditions and the distinguished tradition of British gentleman’s grooming.

Fresh pine needle and resinous elemi provide a crisp green opening. Cumin and coriander introduce aromatic spice before warm frankincense, earthy patchouli and refined tobacco emerge. An elegant base of sandalwood and amber completes the composition.

  • Top notes: Pine needle, elemi, cumin and coriander
  • Heart notes: Frankincense, patchouli and tobacco
  • Base notes: Sandalwood and amber

Concentrated and versatile

Only a small amount is normally required for a complete shave. The consistency can be adjusted precisely through the amount of water used: less water creates a particularly dense lather, while a few additional drops increase slickness and glide.

The cream is suitable for a daily full-face shave as well as precisely shaving the cheeks, neckline and contours around an existing beard. A compact 90 ml Captain Fawcett Expedition Reserve Shaving Cream is also available for travel.

How to use with a shaving brush

Thoroughly wet the face and facial hair with warm water. Soak the shaving brush briefly, then shake out the excess. Place an almond- to hazelnut-sized amount of cream in a shaving bowl or load it directly onto the brush.

Work the cream in circular motions, adding a few drops of water at a time until it forms a rich, glossy lather. Apply evenly to the beard, allow it to soften the stubble briefly and shave in the direction of hair growth using minimal pressure. Rinse the blade regularly during the shave.

How to use without a brush

If required, the cream can be worked between damp hands and applied directly to the face. A traditional shaving brush will generally create a richer lather while simultaneously lifting the whiskers and coating them more evenly.

The Expedition Reserve shaving ritual

  1. Massage a small amount of Captain Fawcett Expedition Reserve Pre-Shave Oil into the beard and skin, then allow it to settle briefly.
  2. Whip the Shaving Cream into a rich lather with warm water and a shaving brush.
  3. Shave with a sharp blade and minimal pressure.
  4. Rinse the face with cool water and pat it gently dry.
  5. Finish with Captain Fawcett Expedition Reserve Post Shave Balm.

To carry the fragrance beyond the shave, complete the ritual with Captain Fawcett Expedition Reserve Eau de Cologne. Each product shares the collection’s green and woody fragrance theme, allowing them to be layered harmoniously.

Packaging and dispensing

The traditional metal tube protects the shaving cream and makes clean, economical dispensing easy. The separately available Captain Fawcett Metal Tube Key rolls the tube evenly and helps ensure that virtually all of the cream can be used.

Concentrated shaving cream for a rich, cushioning lather.

Reuzel Shave Cream

Reuzel Shave Cream – Creamy Shaving Cream for a Close Wet Shave Creamy shaving cream for a close and comfortable wet shave with a safety razor, straight razor, shavette or cartridge razor. It can be applied with your hands or a shaving brush and contains glycerin, aloe vera, vitamin E and selected botanical extracts. Finished with a mild, fresh shaving-soap fragrance. Packaged in a decorative tin featuring a guillotine design. Made in the USA. Reuzel Shave Cream was developed with the cult barbers of Schorem in Rotterdam. Its soft, creamy consistency prepares the facial hair and skin for shaving while creating a smooth layer between the blade and the face. The shaving cream is suitable for a traditional wet shave with a shaving brush but can also be applied easily with the fingers. This makes it ideal for both a classic shaving ritual and a quick daily shave. Smooth Glide for Shaving Reuzel Shave Cream creates a creamy layer that allows the razor blade to glide across the skin with excellent control. This makes it easier to remove facial hair thoroughly and define precise contours. Its consistency remains pleasantly moist during shaving and allows the razor to pass over an area again without the cream drying out immediately. This is particularly practical when shaving the cheeks and neck or shaping detailed beard contours. With Selected Conditioning Ingredients The formula contains several moisturising and conditioning ingredients: Glycerin and sorbitol: Help retain moisture on the skin. Aloe vera: Supports a comfortably conditioned skin feel. Vitamin E: Complements the conditioning shaving formula. Witch hazel: Gives the formula its traditional grooming character. Horsetail, rosemary and nettle extracts: Complement the botanical conditioning blend. Hydrolysed quinoa: Supports a smooth skin feel after shaving. Suitable for a Shaving Brush or Hand Application Using a damp shaving brush allows the cream to be distributed evenly across the face and worked into a light lather. The brush also raises the facial hair and prepares it for shaving. For a quicker application, distribute a small amount between damp hands and massage it directly into the beard. This also creates a smooth, clearly visible shaving layer. The Scent The fragrance is fresh, clean and pleasantly mild. It evokes traditional shaving soap and classic barbershops while retaining a modern, well-groomed character. After shaving, only a subtle fragrance remains on the skin, allowing it to be combined easily with an aftershave or eau de toilette. Application Prepare the face with comfortably warm water. This moistens the skin and facial hair without unnecessarily stressing the skin with excessively hot water. Apply a small amount of shaving cream evenly to the areas being shaved using damp hands or a moistened shaving brush. Allow it to soften the facial hair briefly before shaving. Begin with short, controlled strokes in the direction of hair growth and rinse the razor regularly. For a particularly close result, apply another layer of cream and carefully shave across the direction of growth. Shaving directly against the grain can encourage irritation and ingrown hairs on sensitive skin and should only be attempted if your skin tolerates this technique well. After shaving, rinse the face with cool water, gently pat it dry and apply a suitable aftershave or soothing aftershave balm. The Packaging Reuzel Shave Cream is packaged in a decorative metal tin with a screw-top lid. Its historic guillotine motif and elaborate ornamental details reflect the brand’s unmistakable vintage style. Packaged in a decorative metal tin with a screw-top lid. Free from added colourants.
