what's inside
castor oil
deeply softens coarse hair and creates a smooth surface for the blade to glide over. reduces tugging and friction from the first pass.
avocado oil
rich in fatty acids that reinforce the skin barrier during shaving. nourishes and protects skin from the mechanical stress of the razor.
hemp seed oil
lightweight and rich in omega fatty acids. balances and calms easily irritated skin without clogging pores or leaving residue.
balsam fir
the natural source of base's subtle scent. purifying and soothing, it helps prevent irritation during shaving and refreshes skin after each pass. fragrance-free.
for you
a closer shave starts before the razor.
apply a few drops of base before your usual routine. the oil softens the hair before the blade and creates a protective layer that lets the blade glide without dragging. fewer passes, less irritation, better result.
for two
works everywhere. for everyone.
base is formulated for face, body, and intimate areas on all skin types and all hair textures. gentle enough for the most sensitive zones, effective enough to replace your pre-shave routine entirely. his routine, her routine, or both.
