Benefits

Protects against skin irritation: Formulated with olive and castor oils, the key benefit of this pre-shave oil is that it helps protect against skin irritation and razor burn by creating a protective layer at the start of your shave to improve razor glide.
Free from added fragrance: This Unscented Pre-Shave Oil is an excellent choice for men with heightened skin sensitivities as it’s specially formulated without added fragrance to help avoid unwanted irritation.
Clinically and dermatologically tested: This pre-shave oil is rigorously tested for use on sensitive skin to ensure that it's gentle and non-irritating. Men can trust that this pre-shave oil is suitable for their skin type and can use it with confidence.
Non-comedogenic: Non-comedogenic means that the product is designed not to clog pores, which can lead to acne and other skin problems. This makes it a good choice for those who are prone to breakouts.
Free from synthetic dyes and alcohol: Synthetic dyes and alcohol can be irritating to the skin. The fact that this pre-shave oil is free from these ingredients makes it a good choice for those who want a less astringent product.

How To Use

Applying Pre-Shave Oil is the first step in The Art of Shaving's trademarked 4 Elements of the Perfect Shave™. Before shaving, place a few drops of Pre-Shave Oil onto your fingertips. Massage the oil into the area to be shaved (including the neck) to help soften and lift facial hair. You'll need just enough to provide a light coating over the beard area. Do not rinse off before shaving. Instead, apply Shaving Cream directly on top.

Lower the cost of shaving

I shave in the shower with hot water.
This pre-shave oil, followed by a can of Barbasol allows my razor (Gillette Mach 3) to last for several months.

I experience no razor burn or skin irritation of any kind.
I don’t use a shaving brush.
The Art of Shaving is a brand I trust because it just works.

Because each Mach 3 cartridge razor last for several months, this pre-shave oil has lowered the cost of shaving drastically.

Sticky Build-Up on Razor, Brush, and Bowl

Though I like the IDEA of this product and what it does to improve your shave, it unfortunately leaves a sticky residue on my razor, shaving bowl, and the bristles of my brush. This residue continues to build up... shave after shave. Due to this, I had to stop using it after just 3 shaves.

This buildup stays on my skin too--leaving my skin feeling heavy and sticky. I'm not sure how to effectively remove this buildup, and I'm mainly worried about the bristles of my expensive brush.

I'm glad I only ordered the tiny trial bottle. As I said, I like the idea here, but the sticky build-up is unacceptable to me.

Ridiculously Priced

Like most Art of Shaving products, the quality is good but there price is WAY higher than competitors' products of similar or better products. $28 for 45ml. Castle Forbes, UK makers of some of the finest quality shave products -- who are already considered premium prices -- sells pre-shave gel, also unscented, $60 for 150ml. Prorasso has a pre-shave cream balm. Not as good -- but not bad. 100ml for THIRTEEN dollars. Most AoS is good. Just way overpriced for the level of quality.

Works Well

I have purchased this several times and it works very well, particularly if you have not shaved for a few days or have a tough beard. It is much easier to wash off than the pre-shave oil. I think it is a bit expensive for how many uses you get out of one bottle, even if used sparingly.

Unscented Pre-shave Gel 45 Ml

I love this product, but it's been out of stock for a while. It has helped to provide a closer shave and has led to less skin irritation. However, 45ml is too small for my use, which is limited to one pump per shaving, and it needs to come in a scent like sandalwood.
