A better oil for a better shave! King of Shaves Advanced Silicone Shave Oil Sensitive is formulated to give you a superbly close and comfortable shave. It delivers enhanced razor glide and excellent blade performance leaving your skin incredibly smooth, supple and moisturised, not dry and tight. It makes a great Beard Oil too!
HOW TO USE:
PREPARE: Give your stubble a good wash and soak. Wet stubble is so much easier to cut, which means less tug and pull, less irritation and more comfort so shave during (or straight after) a warm bath or shower. Cleanse face first with quality face wash or gentle exfoliating scrub.
Work 2–3 pumps of Shave Oil thoroughly into your beard, to ensure even coverage and to lift the stubble away from the skin. Pay particular attention to anywhere you get any shaving rash, remembering the bit of the shave prep that does all the work during your shave is the thin film-like barrier between your skin and the blade.
SHAVE: Using a clean sharp blade, shave carefully in the direction of hair growth taking care around the sensitive neck area. Take it slow and steady, rinsing the razor frequently to prevent clogging and to ensure you get the most bristles in a single pass. For heavy stubble or several days’ growth focus on short strokes and thorough rinsing. Shaving with the grain, in the direction hair grows, will reduce the tug and pull and lessen the chance of irritation. If closeness is a problem, re-apply Oil and then shave across the grain (XTG) in a second pass.
Tip: Only a few missed bristles separate a good shave from a great shave. Use your finger tips to feel for any missed bristles before you finish and rinse.
PROTECT: After shaving, thoroughly rinse off with cool clean water as this helps close up the skin’s pores. Pat dry and protect skin immediately with a moisturiser or balm.
Wet Electric: After cleansing, massage in 1–2 pumps of Shave Oil and shave as normal.
Dry Electric: Massage 1–2 pumps of Oil onto clean dry skin. Wait 30 seconds, then shave as normal.
Store in a cool place out of direct sunlight.
Keep out of reach of children.
BEARD OIL INSTRUCTIONS:
Our Shave Oil also works as a highly effective conditioning Beard Oil. It helps prevent any unwanted itching or scratchy feeling and leaves your beard with a healthy shine.
Apply to a clean and towel dried beard. As a rule of thumb for a small beard you will need 1–2 pumps of Oil, a medium beard 3-5 pumps, and a big beard 6+. Don’t use too much, better to start with less, you can easily add more.
Pump Oil into your palms and then massage into beard, starting at the top and working down (with the grain), then working up from the bottom (against the grain) using your fingers like a large comb. Finish off by combing through holding the comb at 90 degrees to your beard so it fully penetrates the beard, not just the top layer. For more shine add a little more Oil.

I wished I'd tried this before. Have used it for both electric and blade shave. The burn of electric dry shaving just doesn't happen, and the oil lubricates the foil.

Much of the oil wasted on my hands or lost when dripping

Average product. For some reason, I get more nicks and cuts when using this product than i do if i use shaving gel.

Have been using this shaving oil for years and won't shave with anything else.

I've used this for years, and it continues to amaze me that anyone uses anything else.

An excellent product which I first used to get around the restrictions for carry on baggage on airlines (must be less than 100ml) and have carried on using it as 'the' only product I use.
