MEN'S SHAVING PRODUCTS (2024)

shaving

Shaving shouldn't be feared. Instead, the best men’s shaving products and proper shaving techniques can make it a simple, luxurious and ultra-smooth ritual.

THE SCOOP ON SHAVING

In our shaving category, we offer the best products to provide a relaxing, enjoyable experience that takes the chore out of shaving. If you’re looking for our top picks for getting a better shave, check out our best sellers, which our valued guests have deemed the best shaving products.

SHAVING CREAM

When it comes to shaving, you’re not going anywhere without a quality shaving cream or shaving soap. Ditch the aerosol can from the drug store and step up your game. Two key points for achieving a smoother shave are to wash your beard with a facial scrub before starting so that the coarse and stubborn beard hairs are softened and uplifted. Then, when using a shave cream or shave soap, apply a thin layer so that the razor doesn’t get clogged by excess product, can get close to the skin, and doesn’t leave you with nicks

SHAVE OILS

The secret weapon in any great shave is a Shave Oil. Most guys aren’t familiar with Shaving Oils or the vast improvements they can make to every shave. The best pre shave oils improve the razor’s glide, providing a slick surface for the blade to slide across and reducing the chances of getting the razor caught on hair and nicking the skin. The best Shave Oil hands down (we're a bit biased) is our Grooming Lounge Beard Master Shave Oil.

SHAVE GELS

Shave Gels, while not as popular as creams, are preferred by many because they’re transparent. This clear formula allows a man to see where he's shaving, making it perfect for gents who have goatees, mustaches and beard lines they want to maintain.

SHAVING IRRITATION & AFTERSHAVES

If you’re prone to razor bumps, burn or ingrown hairs, we recommend checking out our shaving irritation solutions and reading this article on getting the Best Shave Ever.


Every shaver gets some irritation now and then, but it's how you tackle razor bumps that matters – starting with The Shavior is a good first step. In the meantime, you’ll also want a soothing aftershave balm to apply liberally. After shaving, your face becomes dry, sensitive and in serious need of moisture and hydration

SAFETY RAZORS AND STRAIGHT RAZORS

Straight and Safety Razors (also called double-edge razors or single blade razors) have made a big comeback as of late and with good reason. We offer every type of safety razor available: open-comb, closed-comb, slant, adjustable, 3-piece, 2-piece, butterfly and even manscape razors to meet any man’s shaving preference. We know picking the best safety razor can be tricky, so here are some top picks: Merkur 34c Heavy Classic Double-Edged Safety Razor and Parker Vintage Butterfly Safety Razor 99R.

RAZOR BLADES

Safety Razor replacement blades are a fraction of the cost compared to their cartridge counterparts. Razor blades are made from varying types of metal and coating that factor into the durability of the blade. A blade will last between 3-5 shaves, and a good rule of thumb is to change up blades when it begins to get dull. The most popular blades are the Merkur and Feather. If you’re not sure which you’ll like, we recommend grabbing our razor blade sampler pack.

ACCESSORIES

You can have all the great products in the world, but having great shaving accessories is what can put a shaving experience over the top. We offer razor stands, shaving bowls, protective blade cases and blood stoppers (alum blocks and styptic pencil) to refine your shaving repertoire, heighten your experience and take care of your tools.

SHAVING BRUSHES

Shave Brushes stand tough hairs at attention to make it easier for the blade to cut them down so that you don’t get ingrowns. Brushes also clear up residual dirt and oil on the skin to help avoid unwanted breakouts. Make sure to choose a shaving cream that works well with a shaving brush. If you’re just looking to try out a brush and see how you like it, go with the inexpensive Parker Ebony Handled Pure Badger Shaving Brush. However, we recommend a brush made from Badger Hair, such as Parker’s Ebony Handled Pure Badger Shaving Brush, since the bristles are much softer and last longer.

SHAVING KITS

Kits are perfect for gifts as they make the shaving process easy-to-understand and ensure an all-around great shave. Our best kit is our Greatest Shave Ever Kit, which provides the core essentials for a smooth shave – plus it will shave you a few bucks too.

BUILD-A-SHAVE SET

Building your own set is a great way to dive into double-edge shaving. This customizable kit has every category previously mentioned to provide the option of picking and choosing exactly what you want for your own ultimate lineup of products and tools.

HEAD SHAVING

Yeah, shaving your head is a bummer. But there’s nothing worse than a comb over. The bald look has made a huge resurgence in popularity and if it’s your time to embrace the dome, we’ve got the essential products. Try the Headblade ATX All-Terrian Razorwhich literally rolls across your head for a super-smooth pain free shave.
