Yardley English Lavender Brilliantine – Legendary Lavender Pomade in a Glass Jar Legendary soft brilliantine with a light to medium hold, silky shine and an unmistakable fragrance of English lavender, fresh bergamot and oakmoss. This traditional hair pomade leaves the hair smooth and well groomed and is still presented in its nostalgic glass jar with a gold-coloured lid. Yardley English Lavender Brilliantine is one of the world's best-known classic lavender pomades. Its elegant fragrance and traditional packaging also made it synonymous with English men's grooming in Germany for many decades. Yardley is one of Britain's most historic fragrance, bath and body care brands. With this brilliantine, the company preserves a nearly forgotten chapter of traditional hair care: an exceptionally soft, fragranced pomade designed to provide smoothness, gentle shine and a polished appearance. What Is Brilliantine? The word “brilliantine” is derived from the French word “brillant”, meaning shiny. These fragranced grooming products became popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries and were used to make the hair, beard and moustache smoother while providing a polished, glossy appearance. Unlike particularly firm styling pomades, a brilliantine focuses less on maximum hold and more on smoothness, shine, combability and fragrance. Yardley English Lavender Brilliantine continues to embody precisely this traditional character. Light to Medium Hold Yardley Brilliantine provides a light to medium, flexible hold. It gently shapes the hair, smooths flyaways and improves combability without allowing the hairstyle to harden. The hair remains soft, movable and easy to recomb at any time. This makes the brilliantine particularly suitable for traditional hairstyles that should appear polished and natural without looking visibly overstyled. Silky Shine and a Polished Finish The soft oil-based formula gives the hair a natural to pronounced silky shine. Depending on the amount applied, the result can range from subtly polished to a classic, elegant brilliantine finish. The pomade also works exceptionally well as a shine-enhancing finish over a firmer product. A thin layer is sufficient to add extra shine and smoothness to an already styled hairstyle. Which Hairstyles Is This Brilliantine Suitable For? Classic slick backs and side parts Polished business hairstyles Traditional contours and men's styles Relaxed pompadours with a gentle shine Smoothing flyaways Adding shine over a firmer pomade Conditioning dry or dull-looking ends Which Hair Types Is It Suitable For? Yardley English Lavender Brilliantine is particularly suitable for fine to normal hair and for dry or dull-looking hair. Due to its soft consistency, it should be used sparingly to avoid unnecessarily weighing down finer hair. On thicker hair, it can also be used as a conditioning finish or combined with a firmer pomade. The Legendary Lavender Fragrance The fragrance is the unmistakable heart of Yardley Brilliantine. Aromatic lavender meets fresh notes of bergamot, lemon, rosemary and eucalyptus. Geranium and sage give the composition a classic herbal character. Warm accords of cedarwood, oakmoss and musk add depth and elegantly complete the fragrance. The result is fresh, floral, subtly powdery and unmistakably British – a timeless gentleman's scent with historic character. Consistency and Styling The vibrant green brilliantine has an exceptionally soft and smooth consistency. It can be scooped from the glass jar with virtually no resistance and becomes instantly smooth between the palms. It distributes effortlessly through the hair without pulling. Even a small amount improves combability while adding a polished shine and the characteristic lavender fragrance. Application Scoop out a small amount with your fingertips and distribute it between your palms. Work it evenly through towel-dried or dry hair, then shape the desired hairstyle with a comb. Applying the brilliantine to towel-dried hair makes it particularly easy to distribute and creates a stronger shine. Use it more sparingly in dry hair to smooth flyaways and achieve a naturally polished finish. A hairbrush distributes the product particularly evenly and creates a smooth, consistent shape with an elegant shine and no visible stringiness. Washout As a traditional oil-based brilliantine, the product cannot be completely removed with water alone. However, its soft formula makes it easier to wash out than many firm pomades. Depending on the amount applied, a good shampoo is usually sufficient for thorough cleansing. The Nostalgic Packaging Yardley English Lavender Brilliantine is presented in a transparent glass jar with a gold-coloured aluminium screw-top lid. Its small historic label and vibrant green contents give the packaging an unmistakable vintage character. While glass jars were once common for pomades and hair creams, they have now become rare. This makes Yardley Brilliantine not only a classic grooming product but also a distinctive collector's item. Packaged in a nostalgic glass jar with a gold-coloured aluminium screw-top lid. Made in the United Arab Emirates. Free from added preservatives.

Murray’s Super Light Pomade – Light Hold and Shine for Dry Hair Murray’s softest traditional pomade provides light, flexible hold and a natural to high shine. Its rich formula with lanolin, coconut oil, mineral oil and aloe vera extract is particularly suitable for dry or dull-looking hair, longer hairstyles and use as a shine-enhancing finish over a firmer pomade. Highly economical and easy to apply. Made in the USA. Murray’s Super Light Pomade is the soft and exceptionally easy-to-use alternative to the legendary Murray’s Superior Hair Dressing Pomade. While Superior is best known for its very strong hold, Super Light provides greater smoothness, movement and shine. Its soft consistency is effortless to scoop from the tin, rub between the palms and work through the hair without pulling. This makes it ideal for beginners, longer hair and anyone who prefers a relaxed, well-groomed pomade look. Hold, Shine and Finish Hold: light Shine: natural to high Finish: smooth, flexible and polished Scent: mild, classic and pleasantly subtle Light Hold and Flexible Control Murray’s Super Light provides a relaxed hold without making the hair stiff or allowing it to harden. It smooths flyaways, visibly reduces frizz and gives the hairstyle a polished shape while preserving natural movement. The hair can be restyled at any time using your fingers, a comb or a brush. Its hold alone is usually not sufficient for particularly precise or high hairstyles. When combined with a firmer pomade, however, Super Light reveals its special strengths. Ideal as a Shine-Enhancing Finish Many traditional pomade enthusiasts use Murray’s Super Light as a topper or finishing pomade. A firmer pomade such as Murray’s Superior or Murray’s X-Tra Heavy is first applied to create the hold and basic shape. A very small amount of Super Light is then smoothed lightly over the finished hairstyle. This gives the hair greater suppleness and a more intense, even shine without significantly reducing the hold already created. For Dry and Dull-Looking Hair The rich formula with lanolin, coconut oil, mineral oil and aloe vera extract helps leave the hair feeling smooth and well groomed. The included oils help smooth rough-looking hair and restore shine to hair that appears dry or dull. Super Light can also be used sparingly on longer hair, dry ends or visible flyaways. Due to its rich formula, it should be applied carefully to fine hair to avoid weighing it down or creating excessive shine. Suitable For Dry or dull-looking hair: for greater suppleness and a polished shine Fine to normal hair: for relaxed styles with light hold Medium-length and long hair: for flexible control and natural movement Slick backs and side parts: for classic hairstyles without strong hold Flyaways and frizz: for smoothing individual sections of hair As a pomade topper: for additional shine over a firmer pomade Ideal for Pomade Beginners Anyone trying a traditional oil-based pomade for the first time will find Murray’s Super Light particularly easy to use. It offers the flexible restylability of a classic pomade but is considerably easier to scoop and distribute than Murray’s firmer products. Very soft consistency Easy application without pulling Light and flexible hold Natural to high shine Economical and versatile Consistency and Scent Super Light has a very soft, smooth consistency and melts quickly when rubbed between the palms. This allows it to be distributed particularly evenly throughout the hair. The scent is mild, clean and classic. It remains pleasantly understated in the hair and can easily be combined with an aftershave or fragrance. Highly Economical Murray’s Super Light is exceptionally economical. For many hairstyles, a fingertip covered with only a thin layer of pomade will be sufficient. Using too much can quickly weigh down fine hair and create a very high shine. Always begin with the smallest possible amount and gradually add more product if required. Application Remove a small amount from the tin with your fingertip and rub it thoroughly between your palms. Work it evenly through dry or slightly damp hair, then shape the desired hairstyle using your fingers, a comb or a brush. Applied to dry hair, the pomade feels grippier and controls flyaways particularly well. In slightly damp hair, it spreads even more easily and produces a more intense shine. When using it as a finishing pomade, spread a very small amount between your palms and gently smooth it over the already styled hair. Washing Out and Buildup As a traditional oil-based pomade, Murray’s Super Light cannot be removed completely with water alone. Due to its soft consistency, however, it can be washed out more easily than Murray’s Superior or X-Tra Heavy. Depending on the amount applied, one thorough shampoo wash will often be sufficient. Heavier buildup may require additional washes. A light amount of remaining product can deliberately be used as a styling foundation for the following day. Packaged in a classic nostalgic metal tin. Made in the USA. Free from colourants and added preservatives.

Brillantina Linetti Solida – Rare Italian Lavender Pomade Since 1946 A traditional Italian brilliantine pomade made since 1946. It provides light to medium, flexible hold and a soft, well-groomed shine. Its distinctive fragrance is led by aromatic lavender and complemented by warm floral and subtly spicy nuances. Presented in an unusual pale-green case inspired by historic solidified brilliantines. Made in Italy. Brillantina Linetti Solida is a rare classic Italian hair pomade. Since 1946, it has combined flexible styling, soft shine and an elegant lavender fragrance with packaging inspired by the golden age of European brilliantines. Its soft oil-based formula is easy to work through the hair and is particularly suitable for polished, close-fitting hairstyles. The hair remains movable and can be recombed or brushed at any time throughout the day. The most striking feature is the decorative pale-green case. Its characteristic shape recalls historic solidified brilliantines and makes Linetti an unusual focal point in the bathroom, barbershop or pomade collection. Light to Medium, Flexible Hold Brillantina Linetti Solida provides light to medium hold. It keeps the hair neat and supports a polished hairstyle without hardening or forming a rigid styling film. Its flexible control is especially suitable for traditional side parts, slickbacks, neat contours and elegant everyday styles. Fine to normal hair will often require only a small amount for shape and shine. On stronger hair, the pomade can be built gradually or used as a smooth base beneath a firmer pomade. Because the product remains soft, the hairstyle can be recombed whenever required. Linetti is therefore particularly suitable for anyone who prefers naturally movable styling to a hard, fixed finish. Soft Shine in the Tradition of Classic Brilliantines The oil-based formula gives the hair a soft, even shine. The finish looks polished and classic without creating the extreme wet look associated with very soft high-shine pomades. Flyaways are smoothed, while the hair becomes easier to comb into a clean, unified shape. The amount applied determines the intensity: used sparingly, Linetti creates subtle natural-looking shine; a more generous application produces a stronger brilliantine finish. Aromatic Lavender Fragrance The distinctive scent of Brillantina Linetti Solida is led by aromatic lavender. Warm, subtly floral, powdery and gently spicy impressions give the composition its nostalgic character. The fragrance feels classic and well-groomed, recalling traditional European men’s grooming. It remains pleasantly noticeable in the hair without developing the heaviness of a modern perfume. Who Is Brillantina Linetti Solida For? Fans of classic and nostalgic pomades Those who enjoy aromatic lavender fragrances Fine, normal and thick hair Side parts, slickbacks, neat contours and traditional men’s hairstyles Movable styling without a hard finish Soft, well-groomed shine Collectors of historically inspired grooming products As an Italian alternative to classic English lavender brilliantines An Unusual Case Inspired by Historic Brilliantines During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, fine hair oils were frequently sold as brilliantines, while firmer versions were known as “solidified brilliantines.” Premium products often came in decorative containers with oval shapes or rounded corners. The sturdy packaging protected the valuable contents and made the product easier to carry. Brillantina Linetti Solida continues this design tradition with its pale-green case. Although the former metal has been replaced by modern material, the unmistakable character of historic European men’s grooming remains. Consistency The pomade has a soft, smooth consistency and is easy to remove from the inner container. It quickly becomes pliable between the palms and can then be distributed evenly through the hair. The soft texture makes application especially easy on fine to normal hair. For thick or unruly hair, apply several small portions gradually instead of using one large amount at once. Directions Remove a small amount with a fingertip and rub thoroughly between the palms. Work it evenly through dry or slightly damp hair from the roots to the ends. Shape the hair with a comb or hairbrush. For a traditional side part, establish the basic shape with a fine-toothed comb, then smooth the hairstyle with a natural-bristle brush. Used in dry hair, the pomade provides slightly greater control and a more subtle finish. Applied to slightly damp hair, it distributes especially easily and creates stronger, more unified shine. Prepare the Hair with Hair Tonic A hair tonic improves manageability before application and helps the pomade spread evenly. For light, oil-free preparation with silky shine, choose Don Draper Hair Tonic YELLOW. Those who prefer a richer hair feel and a warmer fragrance can use Don Draper Hair Tonic GOLD. Follow with a small amount of Linetti and complete the hairstyle with the Don Draper Premium Comb and a Don Draper hairbrush made with pure boar bristles. For More Hold: Don Draper Men’s Pomade If the smooth Linetti brilliantine does not provide enough control, Don Draper Men’s Pomade is a suitable alternative. It provides medium to firm, flexible hold and classic shine. Its mild fragrance combines hints of coconut and pineapple with warm woody nuances. The two pomades can also be combined. Apply Don Draper Men’s Pomade first as the controlling base, then add a small amount of Linetti for additional shine and its characteristic lavender fragrance. An Alternative with an Iconic Fragrance: Sweet Georgia Brown Those who prefer a warmer, powdery and spicy fragrance with particularly strong historic character can choose one of the classic Sweet Georgia Brown Pomades. The iconic Sweet Georgia Brown fragrance combines impressions of rose, lavender, spices, citrus and vanilla. It has been one of the most legendary scent compositions in pomade and grooming history since the 1930s. Sweet Georgia Brown Hair Tonic improves manageability before styling and introduces the unmistakable fragrance while it is massaged into the hair and scalp. Follow with a Sweet Georgia Brown Pomade for traditional hold and shine. English Lavender Alternative: Yardley Those specifically looking for another classic lavender brilliantine will find Yardley English Lavender Brillantine a particularly suitable secondary alternative. Yardley interprets the theme with a traditionally English lavender character, while Linetti offers a softer Italian variation in its unusual pale-green case. Both products appeal to enthusiasts of historic brilliantines but differ in fragrance, consistency and styling feel. This makes them ideal for comparing traditional Italian and English approaches to classic men’s grooming. Styling the Following Day As an oil-based brilliantine, some of the product remains in the hair overnight. The following morning, thoroughly combing or brushing the hair will often be sufficient. When required, massage in a small amount of Don Draper Hair Tonic to make the existing product pliable again. Add a little Linetti and reshape the hairstyle. Washing Out Brillantina Linetti Solida is a traditional oil-based pomade and is therefore not water-soluble. Water alone will remove only part of it. The remaining light build-up can be used as a base for styling the following day. For thorough cleansing, first massage shampoo into dry or only slightly damp hair. Allow it to work briefly, then add water, create a lather and rinse carefully. A second wash may be required after heavier product build-up. For mild regular cleansing, use Sweet Georgia Brown Cocoanut Oil Shampoo. Its gentle formula cleanses the hair and scalp, while conditioning coconut oil derivatives support a smooth hair feel. Despite its name, the shampoo does not have a coconut fragrance; it carries the iconic Sweet Georgia Brown scent. Caution For external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes. Do not apply to an irritated or damaged scalp. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Store away from heat and direct sunlight. Presented in a decorative pale-green case inspired by historic packaging. Made since 1946. Made in Italy. Without added preservatives.
