Drop shave bar into the bottom of shaving bowl. Add a small splash of water to soap and begin to brush bar to create foam. Continue brushing until you have enough of the thick lather to work with. Add a few additional drops of water if needed.

Apply lather to skin using brush and shave as usual.

Once shaving is complete, pour out any excess water from cup or bowl, rinse soap from brush, shake off excess water and allow to dry bristles down for next use. Soap bar and bubbles remain in bowl to dry, lather will be reactivated with water during next use.

How to load a blade for Butterfly Safety Razor: Twist the bottom of the shaver handle to open the wings of the blade holder. Simply place a blade (be careful - it's sharp!) on the platform and twist the bottom in the opposite direction to tighten the blade holder wings over the blade. You're ready to shave!

Safety Razor: Rinse and shake dry after use. Store in a dry spot to increase the life of your blades.

Shaving Bowl: Pour out water from bowl between uses to ensure a longer life for the shave bar.

Shave Bar: Use bar as is, or for longer use and thicker lather, use with a shave brush. The bar will last 6-8 months when used with a shave brush or 3-4 months when lathering with hands. 

Shaving Brush: Rinse and let dry after each use. Store bristle side down.

Aftershave Balm: After shaving, rub a small amount onto your face and neck to hydrate and soothe.
