Solstice Artisan Shave Soap | Ultra Premium Formula CK-6

The Solstice Artisan Shave Soap by Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements is a truly unique and magical shaving soap that transforms your shaving routine into a sacred ritual. Crafted using the Ultra Premium CK-6 formula, this soap offers a luxurious and thick lather that provides exceptional glide and protection, ensuring a close and comfortable shave.

The scent of Solstice is a contemplative blend that evokes the spirit of the desert, featuring notes of sage, sweetgrass, cedar, rose absolute, and benzoin resin. This aromatic profile is both earthy and slightly floral, creating a fragrance that is both grounding and uplifting.

It’s a perfect choice for those who appreciate the deeper, more complex scents that make shaving a meditative experience.

How to Use:

1. Preparation: Begin by soaking your shaving brush in warm water. Swirl the brush over the surface of the soap to load it with product.
2. Lathering: Create a lather by working the brush in a shaving bowl or directly on your face. Add water gradually until you achieve a thick, creamy consistency.
3. Shaving: Apply the lather to your face in circular motions, covering all areas to be shaved. Shave with your preferred razor, rinsing the blade frequently.
4. Post-Shave Care: Rinse your face with cool water to close the pores. Consider following up with a matching aftershave or balm to prolong the scent and soothe your skin.

Care Advice:

• Storage: Keep the soap in a cool, dry place, with the lid tightly closed to preserve the scent and consistency.
• Hygiene: After each use, allow the soap to dry before replacing the lid to prevent moisture buildup, which can affect the soap's longevity.
• Enhancing the Experience: For a more immersive experience, consider pairing the soap with the Solstice aftershave or cologne, which shares the same scent profile, enhancing the ritual of your shave.

The CK-6 formula is highlighted for its slickness and excellent post-shave feel, leaving the skin well-moisturized and smooth.

But what is CK6 formula and how it works. 

CK-6 is made up of some very exotic butters, oils, and waxes from around the world: Kokum Butter, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Jojoba Wax, Bacuri Butter, Cupuaçu Butter, and Murumuru Butter!

Bacuri Butter: is very popular in the north of Brazil. It comes from the seeds of a beloved local fruit with rich pulp and flavor.

Is a natural butter extracted from the seeds of the Platonia insignis tree, which is native to the Amazon region, particularly in northern Brazil. It is rich in nutrients like fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, giving it powerful moisturizing and regenerative properties for the skin.

How it helps in shaving:
Bacuri Butter is highly emollient, which means it helps soften and hydrate the skin, making it an excellent ingredient for shaving products. It provides a smooth, lubricated surface, reducing friction between the razor and the skin. This minimizes the risk of nicks, cuts, and irritation while leaving the skin feeling nourished and supple after shaving.

Cupuaçu Butter: Is a creamy, rich butter derived from the seeds of the Theobroma grandiflorum tree, a close relative of the cacao tree, native to the Amazon rainforest. It is known for its high capacity to retain moisture, as well as being packed with antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamins.

How it helps in shaving:
Cupuaçu Butter provides intense hydration and has a high water absorption capacity, which helps to keep the skin moisturized during and after shaving. Its smooth texture enhances the glide of the razor over the skin, reducing friction and preventing irritation. Additionally, its nourishing properties help to soothe and repair the skin, leaving it soft and supple after shaving.

Murumuru Butter: is a phenomenally slick butter that gives a most excellent skin feel and slip. It is called the "vegetable silicone" for its ability to rapidly replace mineral silicon in the dermis.

Murumuru Butter is also rich in vitamin A and C and Omega fatty acids 3, 6, and 9.

The main fatty acid found in this butter is called Lauric Acid (at an astonishing 47%). It also has Myristic Acid, Oleic Acid, Palmitic Acid, and Linoleic Acid. 

When these 3 luxury butters combine with Kokum, Cocoa, Jojoba & Shea, you get some serious premium, luxury, fatty lather; killer creamy, slick, buttery goodness that possesses superb residual slickness and earth-shattering post-shave feel!

You will not even need to use a balm !
