Martin De Candre shaving cream sample original

Martin De Candre Original Shaving Soap Pouch

Shaving from a sheet of paper? Unthinkable! And yet, Martin de Candre has done it!

Compact, lightweight, this innovative version will allow you to test shaving soaps before choosing the fragrance that suits you best! Depending on the “lather” you desire, these samples in the form of a pouch will allow you to perform 7 to 12 shaves.

In this pouch you will see the legendary Martin de Candre lather, a few strokes of the brush, and the soap powder gives way to a generous and gentle layer of lather that will give you a memorable shave.

This particular packaging comes in a cardboard box in which is folded a sheet of paper impregnated with the fragrance of your choice, all you have to do is pass the wet brush on the side with the soap powder and let the foam rise.

You can, of course, dry the sheet after each use and keep it in its original case.

METHOD OF USE: Wet your face with plenty of warm water. Wet the brush in warm water removing the excess, pass the brush on the soap with a few circular movements (without insisting for a long time). Lather the face by massaging, this gesture will develop a velvety foam that will adhere well to the face and allow a close shave with maximum comfort.
After use, wait a few minutes for the foil to dry, fold it up and store it in its case.

RARE AND EXCEPTIONAL CRAFTSMANSHIP. THE FRENCH HISTORY OF MARTIN DE CANDRE.

It all began in the 1970s when chemist-soap-maker André Chapuis, originally from Cher, met Dominique and Rosine Dauge, farmers on the family estate at the entrance to Fontevraud l’Abbaye. It was a meeting that changed forever the way of looking at the art of French savonnerie.
Thus, more than 40 years ago, the Martin De Candre artisan soap factory was born.

The historic estate, the agricultural domain and the seductive green oasis surrounding the property were turned over to the production of what would later be defined as the finest handmade shaving soaps (and bath products) in the world.

A renowned company, especially for its shaving soap, Martin de Candre is the fruit of a family adventure that knows how to exploit and preserve, a KNOW-HOW that has now disappeared in France.
At Martin De Candre, everything is “handmade”, everything is weighed by hand and manually processed because this is the way they do things.
