Create a smoother, more comfortable shave with APOTHECARY 87 Shave Oil.
Designed for use before or after shaving, this rich grooming oil sits on the skin to improve razor glide while helping soften beard hair and stubble. Its clear finish also makes it especially useful for defining beard lines around the cheeks and neck, where visibility matters.
The formula combines Castor Oil and Avocado Oil to nourish the skin and help reduce irritation, while Vitamin E and Wheatgerm Oil add further conditioning support.
Finished with APOTHECARY 87’s signature sandalwood and vanilla fragrance, it brings the warm character of a traditional barbershop into a practical everyday shaving ritual.
It can be used alone for precision shaving or underneath shave cream for an even smoother shave.
Fragrance Profile
Fragrance: Sandalwood & Vanilla
A warm blend of sweet vanilla and spicy, woody sandalwood, inspired by the atmosphere of traditional barbershops.
The scent was originally known as the brand’s 1893 fragrance, referencing the year associated by Apothecary 87 with the opening of the first barber school.
How to Use
Pre-shave:
Apply a few drops to the palms and gently massage into the areas you intend to shave.
Shave directly over the oil, or apply shaving cream over the top for additional cushioning and glide.
Post-shave:
After shaving, rub a few drops between the palms and gently massage into the shaved areas to help soothe and condition the skin.
Important Notes / Warnings
Suitable for areas where extra shaving visibility is useful, including cheeks and neckline.
The clear-oil formulation makes it particularly well suited to beard edging and precision shaving.
APOTHECARY 87 states that its formulations are cruelty-free and tested on humans, not animals.
For external use only.
Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
