A historic range that has it all
Edouard Pinaud made his contribution to male grooming by inventing brilliantine and unveiling the perfumed, oil-infused liquid in the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris. But the House of Edouard Pinaud dates back to 1810, the year the famed perfumer opened shop in Paris. Its popular Eau de Quinine was already part of this historic range, as well as a variety of grooming concoctions including shaving soaps, creams, colognes and complexion powders. He honored the Hungarian cavalry by creating the Lilac…

Safety Razors: Adjustable vs. Non-Adjustable
I’m new to wet-shaving. What kind of double-edge safety razor would work better for me: adjustable or fixed-head?

Fixed-head safety razors are well-suited for beginners since they eliminate the adjustability factor and allow you to concentrate on what is important, your technique. It may be a while until you consider switching to an adjustable double-edge, if at all. You might end up discovering you don’t…
