Make your own shaving supplies.

Shaving soap is easy to make and feels nice to use (I'm told) the brush helps lift the hairs up, making cuts and nicks a thing of the past. Natural boar bristles are the best to use and there are many budget-friendly options online. (I got mine for $2.99!) I put a sticker on mine to personalize.

  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    Chop the soap base into chunks and put in a microwave container such as Pyrex.
    Melt for 45 seconds or until mostly melted. Stir (a wooden craft stick or skewer works well) until fully melted, add clay, stir until fully dissolved. Add essential oils then pour into your cup. If bubbles form on top spray a few times with the alcohol to dissipate. It will dry quickly. If the surface doesn't look perfect you can remelt and try again. Voila!
