Shaving gel or shaving foam? We say: Both!

Water mint and oat extract? The guys at Mornin' Glory must be crazy. Right? Why else would you put those two ingredients in a shaving gel? And why is there even a new shaving gel at all?

Gel-lovs and gel-fruit

Let's take it step by step: Shaving gel offers gentle skin protection for wet shaving. So far, so clear. It's easy to apply, easy to spread, and makes the beard hairs nice and soft so you can cut them more easily. It's no wonder that classic shaving foam and shaving gel are among the most popular choices for men.

That's why we decided against shaving foam when we designed our shaving product last year. Our mild shaving gel was then launched in August 2014. Since then, our shaving gel has supported many millions of shaves – a good product that has been extremely popular with our customers.

But the better is the enemy of the good – which is why we set about further developing our shaving gel in the spring of 2015. Many men believe that razor blades alone are responsible for a good shave. That's not true. Shaving aftershave plays a crucial role: only the combination of sharp blades and good shaving aftershave results in a truly smooth, well-groomed shave.

Your wish will come true

After testing many different ingredients and recipes, we finally found our absolute favorite: A Shaving gel with foam that makes wet shaving easier, cares for the skin and also smells quite delicious.

During product development, we opted for two new, powerful ingredients: oat extract and water mint. Both ingredients combine nourishing properties with a skin-soothing effect. We source both water mint and oat extract from suppliers who process only natural ingredients – one of our core principles.

We don't want to put parabens or artificial flavorings on our faces, and you probably don't either. Therefore, this foaming shaving gel also aligns with our own preferences. Quality promise 100 percent.

So minty fresh, so deliciously oat-like

It goes without saying that razor blades glide effortlessly across your face with the new foam gel. And smooth, cared-for skin is all that's left behind. Just as it should be!

Skincare doesn't start after shaving. By then it's usually too late – once your skin is irritated, it's difficult for it to return to its natural balance, and instead of a pale complexion, you'll end up with red skin.

That's why we use water mint and oat extract: natural ingredients that effectively support your skin, even during wet shaving. Let's take a closer look at both ingredients:

• Oat extract: Oats are not only good to eat (see our delicious Oats are not only good for porridge (as a recipe ), but also for skincare. Therefore, oats are used as a medicinal plant to support skin regeneration. They are used in various ways. avena sativa Even for eczema, acne, and other skin irritations. Many plant proteins, lipids, saponins, B vitamins, and important trace elements also help your skin in this shaving gel.

While mint itself is familiar from After Eight chocolates or dental chewing gum, here water mint is said to work its healing magic on your skin. And these properties make it perfect for shaving: refreshing, moisturizing, antibacterial, and soothing. mentha aquatica Your skin sustainably.

It might sound exotic, but these ingredients aren't as far-fetched as they seem. And in a well-designed product like our new foaming shaving gel, they make perfect sense. The gel also smells great, which is important too.

Incidentally, we ourselves tested the new shaving gel many times and passed tube after tube to our colleagues until everyone was completely shaved and unanimously approved of the new formula.

From hand to face

The application is simple: Squeeze a cherry-sized amount of shaving gel from the dispenser into your hand and apply it to your face. Lather it up with circular motions as you apply. Then, place the razor blade and pull it cleanly in the direction of hair growth – and your holiday-ready face is complete.

Just try something new.
