Hi Sue - thanks for the review. We think less water makes it easier to lather, but that's just from our experience. We're glad you're willing to not give up on the planet even if the road to sustainability involves a lot of changes.

Full Size: 80 g

How long does this zero-waste product last?

Travel Size: 30-40 shaves*

Full Size: 60-80 shaves*

Your shave bar will dissolve to nothing so you don’t need to worry about disposing of it, unlike an aerosol can!

*Life span will vary based on storage conditions, desired foaminess, etc.

What traditional plastic bathroom product does this replace?

Canned shaving cream.

Shaving cream is packed full of chemicals that leave your skin red, irritated, and dried out, which can lead to those annoying, tiny, raised red bumps.

Back in the day (ok, back in the 90’s, which really isn’t that long ago) aerosol cans contained chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which played a major role in the depletion of the Ozone layer. CFCs have now been banned in most countries, however, not in all.

Unfortunately, most aerosol cans (including the ones you use for shaving cream) use volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to propel their product. Once in the air, VOCs contribute to ground-level Ozone levels, contributing to smog production.

At life UNpacked our shave bars are 100% natural, chemical-free, and biodegradable.. So take them with you on your next outdoor adventure.

How do I use this zero-waste product?

Wet your shave bar.
Hold directly to the skin and rub in a circular motion or rub shave bar between your hands to lather.
Shave as you normally would.
Rinse.
Store lifted on travel tin insert or soap saver.

*Drain your travel tin after each use to prevent your shave bar from sitting in a puddle!
