→ Seabeast — Shaving Soap
SHAVE COMPASS BEARING
Seabeast belongs decisively to Watermen, with sea notes and seaweed forming the cold, mineral center of its marine profile. Ambroxan and dry amber keep the base salty and modern rather than purely watery, while the verdant cast of seaweed pulls its far edge toward Undergrowth.
ARTISAN DESCRIPTION
Seabeast – Rising from the Deep
Far below the surface, beyond the reach of sunlight, something ancient stirs.
Seabeast was created as our vision of a dark marine fragrance — cold, salty, mineral, and mysterious. Not the bright blue water of a summer beach, but the deep ocean where light disappears and the unknown begins.
The fragrance opens with crisp marine air and a sharp mineral freshness. Seaweed and salty aquatic notes build through the heart, creating the sensation of cold ocean water and wet stone. Beneath it, amber and ambroxan add depth and warmth, leaving a smooth, modern trail against the darker marine structure.
Scent Notes:
Top: Marine Accord, Mineral Air

THE PROCESS

Ingredients: Aqua, Potassium Stearate, Potassium Ricinoleate, Glycerin, Potassium Tallowate, Potassium Olivate, Potassium Shea Butterate, Squalane, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Water, Parfum, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Caprylic/capric Triglyceride, Crambe Abyssinica Seed Oil, Sodium Lactate, Kaolin, Panthenol, Potassium Babassuate, Potassium Behenate, Potassium Lanolate, Allantoin, Hydrolyzed Silk, Sodium Gluconate, Tocopherol, Sodium Chloride

IMPORTANT NOTE: WE DO NOT RECOMMEND BLOOMING THE SOAP (SOAKING IT WITH WATER BEFORE USE)
For Optimal Lather and Maximum Performance:
- Load your brush by swirling it on the soap’s surface for approximately 10 seconds to pick up the perfect amount of product.
- Create lather in a bowl or directly on your face, gradually adding water as needed.
This soap lathers quickly and effortlessly. Incorporating more water increases the lather’s density and enhances its creamy, buttery texture, ensuring excellent cushion and slickness for a superior shaving experience.
The CORTEX X Base lather has exceptional water retention, allowing you to customize its consistency according to your preference. Do not hesitate to add more water for optimal hydration and performance.
