Collection: Martin De Candre

Martin de Candre is known for its handmade shaving soaps of the highest quality, made in France since 1974. These soaps are created through a traditional hot saponification process using only vegetable oils and potassium hydroxide. The result is a solid soap that produces a rich and creamy lather, ensuring a close and comfortable shave.

Their original variant combines elegant and aromatic notes of lavender, mint and rosemary for a fresh scent experience. The soap is also notable for its long-lasting durability; a 200 gr. jar can last up to a year with daily use.

For those with sensitive skin, Martin de Candre offers a fragrance-free version called 'Nature', which has the same excellent properties without added essential oils.

All products are vegan and made without the use of preservatives or artificial additives.

Martin de Candre shaving soaps are the result of more than four decades of expertise in traditional soap making. By using an ancient method of saponification, where vegetable oils are saponified using heat, a soap of exceptional quality and performance is created. This process, combined with a maturation period of 4-5 months, results in a solid soap that is rich in natural glycerin, providing a creamy and protective lather.

The original shaving soap from Martin de Candre is enriched with a harmonious blend of essential oils from lavender, mint and rosemary. These ingredients contribute not only to a refreshing scent, but also to a soothing and antiseptic effect on the skin. For those who prefer a more subtle fragrance or have sensitive skin, the 'Nature' variant is ideal as it is free of perfume and still delivers the same high performance.

The use of Martin de Candre shaving soap is economically advantageous. Thanks to its concentrated formula, only a minimal amount is required to achieve a rich lather, meaning a single 200g jar can last up to a year of daily shaving. This makes the soap a long-term investment in your shaving routine.

For best results, it is recommended to use a damp shaving brush to lather the soap directly into the jar or bowl. Apply the rich foam to the damp face in circular motions to lift the hairs and prepare the skin for a close shave. After use, the soap should be stored open to allow drying, which will extend its life and preserve its quality.
