What is The Personal Barber Shaving Club?
The Personal Barber is the curated shaving subscription that wants to turn your daily chore into a satisfying experience to look forward to.
We passionately believe that making the switch to a single-blade razor will change your whole outlook on shaving. Not only is it kinder on your skin so you can achieve a close shave without razor burn or rash, but there’s something very satisfying about using a single-blade that just isn’t felt from a modern, plastic, multi-blade razor.
That’s why we created our shaving club where you’ll be learning the art of the classic wet shave whilst getting to try a range of fantastic products to breathe life into your morning routine. Every 6 weeks, we curate a selection of only the finest wet shaving gear and men’s skincare essentials from all over the world, introducing you to the lesser known brands and small businesses that you don’t see in the supermarkets.
Make the switch to one of our single blade razors (included in your first box) and find out exactly what you’ve been missing:
- Warm scented lathers and effortlessly close shaves.
- Suitable for sensitive skin. Eliminate irritation and say goodbye to shaving rash!
- Artisan soaps/creams, post-shave balms, colognes and more. Every kit is different so you’re never bored.
- A clean conscience, no more plastic cartridges. Our blades are 100% recyclable.
Pre-shave box – Post-shave box – Extra-care box
Our latest kit is the “Post-Shave Box” which will be going out to renewing subscribers between February 15th – March 31st. On top of a new shaving soap and restock of 10 blades, this kit always features a post-shave balm to help calm the skin after shaving and promote the healing process so it feels comfortable all day long. We also usually showcase a solid cologne in this kit which we believe is one of the most exciting new products that every gentleman must try.

Peach Blossom Shaving Soap RRP £9.95
We’re very excited to unveil this brand new shaving soap, made in collaboration with our fantastic artisan soap maker, based in Glasgow.
The soap has a vegetable glycerine base making it suitable for all skin types and very easy to whip into a lather. In seconds you’ll have a dense, cushioning lather that allows for an effortlessly comfortable shave. The choice of ingredients moisturise the skin, leaving a silky smooth post-shave feel.
The unique and delightful Peach Blossom scent combines the sweet and juicy aroma of peaches with the delicate and floral notes of jasmine. Together, this fragrance creates a harmonious blend that is both refreshing and captivating.
The scent of shaving soaps and creams are designed to be enjoyed only during your shave. It’s a rinse-off product so the scent doesn’t linger long and therefore won’t interfere with your choice of aftershave.
To use: Work the top of the shaving soap with a slightly damp brush until it’s fully loaded (10-15 seconds) and then start building your lather as normal either in a bowl, your hand or directly on your face. If it seems paste-like, keep adding drops of water until the desired consistency is acquired. You want to aim for a shiny meringue consistency.
Ingredients: Aqua, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Stearate, Glycerin, Sodium Laureth Sulphate, Sodium Laurate, Sorbitol, Sodium Xylenesulphonate, Stearic Acid, Lauric Acid, Titanium Dioxide, Tetrasodium EDTA, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Parfum.
Mr Moose “Whistler” Post-Shave Razor Balm RRP £13.50
Mr Moose is the men’s grooming line from Pamper Moose, a British artisan cosmetics maker with the aim to make bath, beauty and grooming cosmetics without single-use plastics. Based in Bournemouth, all their products are vegan-friendly and use recyclable packaging.
The Mr Moose Razor Balm was inspired by the mountain freshness of Whistler, Canada. It has been formulated to help your skin rehydrate and revitalise after shaving through soothing coconut, rosehip and jojoba oils, aloe vera and vitamin E.
The fragrance of white musk, a hint of zingy citrus and luxurious cedarwood make this a treat for your skin and senses.
To use: Apply a pea size amount to the tips of your fingers and gently massage the balm into your skin. Simple allow the balm to soak in naturally for the best results.
Ingredients: Aloe barbadensis (aloe vera) gel, Cocus nucifera (coconut) oil, Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil, Olea Europaea Fruit Oil, Rosa canin (rosehip) fruit oil, Tocopherol (vitamin E) oil, parfum, Alpha-isomethyl Ionone, benzyl alcohol, benzyl salicylate, citral, Citronellol, courmarin, geraniol, limonene & linalool
Dandy Solid Cologne RRP £19.95
After the fantastic feedback we received last year for our Dandy shaving soap, we are excited to be launching our new Dandy solid cologne!
The Dandy fragrance encapsulates sophistication and refinement. It exudes a warm and spicy aroma of tobacco notes fused with rich vanilla and deep woods, creating a harmonious blend that oozes elegance. The scent envelops the wearer in an opulent and luxurious aura, reminiscent of a sophisticated dandy. It is a fragrance that epitomizes timeless style and suave charm, leaving a lasting impression.
The compact design of our solid colognes allows for easy use on-the-go, perfect for men who are always on the move. It can be easily stored in a toiletry bag or pocket and because it’s also alcohol-free it can be taken on a flight without worry.
Made from a luxurious blend of berry wax, jojoba oil, shea butter, & carefully chosen parfum which means it won’t dry out your skin but in fact keep it moisturised as well as smelling great. By using berry wax rather than the more common bees wax, our cologne is also suitable for vegans! (But don’t eat it, obviously)
To use: Gently rub your finger over the balm and then apply to your pulse points such as your wrist, neck and behind your ears. We use the pulse points because they heat up the cologne, making it last longer. Want a stronger scent? Use the back of your nail to scrape off a larger quantity. The more you use, the stronger it will be. During the cold winter months, it’s normal for the cologne to be quite hard. It just takes a little bit longer to warm up under your finger.
Ingredients: Rhus Verniciflua Peel Cera, Parfum, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil, Citronellol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Benzyl Benzoate, Linalool, Citral
