Excellent shaving oil! The texture is very good, and it is nourishing for the skin. The price is also nice, compared to other shaving oils out there!

Yet again another hassle free order…
Yet again another hassle free order from VB, thanks for contacting me to clarify the delivery address.
I’m glad to continue using the balm daily, as a longstanding customer I can’t imagine why I’d want to use another balm instead.
All the best to Iain, for continued success with your business!!

I was originally given a small bottle and thought it was great. When I was low, I decided to order another bottle. It provides the best save. Happy to have it again. Use Harry’s Razors what a great combination.

Makes shaving a pleasure.
As a regular purchaser of Village Barber shaving oil and cream I can without any hesitation recommend these products. As a wet shaver of many years nothing that I have previously purchased for shaving compares with Village Barber products.
I have a designer goatee which needs precise sculpting and the shaving oil allows me to do this unlike some other products. The shaving balm gives your skin that finishing touch.
These products are Simply The Best!

Convert to the Art of Shaving
This oil has transformed my shaving experience. I’ve gone from a heavily reluctant shaver to enjoying the process or, what the creator Ian refers to as, the Art of Shaving!

Shaving Oil and balm set, Also travel shaving oil and balm set
Very happy with shaving oil and balm gift set, plus the travel oil and balm set. Very well packaged and arrived safely in Australia!
I shave with a slant bar double edge razor and find my neck is very sensitive but has course hair. Going against the grain on my neck can cause some irritation. I used the Village barber shaving oil as a preshave then use a shaving soap such as Mitchell's wool fat or Arko. The shaving oil improved the razor glide against the grain and reduced my neck irritation.
Oil is a good consistency not too thick or thin. It rubs in easily and has a warming feeling with a sweet herbal garden scent, which is pleasant. The oil also lasts 2 passes for me and washes off easily.
Village barber balm is also a nice consistency and easy to rub in. It has a herbal and sweet peppermint scent to it which I like. The balm leave the skin rehydrated and soft with no greasiness.
Very happy with both products and service from Village Barber.

Excellent!
I have used the Village Barber shave oil and post shave balm for years, they are my go to products. Now trying a beard and Village Barber was my natural choice. The Beard Growth oil is great, light and not sticky or "oily" at all. Great scent too!
