Strongfell Shave Oil • Winter
FOR SWORDSMEN & SURVIVORS
CRAFTED FOR MATURE & DELICATE SKIN

Scent Profile: Smoking coals & winter herbs
STRONGFELL IS...The clash of steel and stone in the biting air, echoing from training grounds, the healer's chamber above little warmed by fragrant smoking coals and sharp winter herbs.
Benefits: We have never met a beard and shave oil combo that does both as well as our beard oils and shave oils do their jobs. Beard oils are meant to penetrate the hair and skin, while shave oil is meant to most stay on the surface and provide glide for your blade. Our shave oils have been reformulated to include botanically-infused oils to deliver even more of nature’s magic to your shave each season.
Our shave oil scent blends are made with more purpose than simply good smells. All of Strongfell’s essential oils are chosen for their ancient reputations for hostility toward microscopic beastlies, and friendliness toward mature, delicate, skin, uneven tones & textures.
Tips from the Alchemist: Shave oils can be used in a great many stages of your shaving routine. Pick the parts that fit your routine, it can be as simple or involved as you make it, but we at the apothecary encourage you to treat yourself.
How to Use Shave Oil:
Pre-Shave: Apply to face before using a hot towel or other steam source. If desired, follow with a gentle scrub or other exfoliation method for an even closer shave and better finish.
Beard Lining: When you aren't shaving a whole face, try shave oil by itself. Making crisp edges around beards, mustaches or other facial hair is much easier when your shave medium is transparent.
Full Shave: Our barbers are split on the better method here, which tells you both are great options: 1) Apply shave oil, top with shave cream; 2) mix shave cream and oil, especially by dripping half a dropper on top of a shave soap puck before whipping with a badger brush. Perfection.
The Lore: In the Realm, the Fortress of Strongfell in the Giant lands of Jotunheim are a remnant of humanity's brief expedition into the frozen lands, where after the Strongfell Horrors legends say the walking icy hunger still haunts the crumbling ruins.
