Calm, comfortable skin after every shave
Shaving is one of the most common causes of irritation on the face and neck. The blade removes hair, but it also removes a layer of surface skin cells, which leaves skin more exposed straight afterwards. Elave Shave Balm is a light, fast absorbing aftershave balm designed for that moment. Aloe vera and cooling menthol help soothe freshly shaved skin, while vitamin E and glycerin help hydrate and condition it.
- For skin that feels tight, hot or uncomfortable after shaving
- Helps calm the look of redness and irritation
- Fragrance free and alcohol free
- Light texture that absorbs quickly, with no greasy finish
Why it matters
Traditional aftershaves often rely on alcohol and fragrance for that familiar sting. Both can dry and irritate skin that has just been shaved. A fragrance free, alcohol free balm gives skin what it needs at that point: hydration and a chance to settle.
Used daily, it is a simple step that makes shaving more comfortable, especially for sensitive or dry skin.
How to use
- Rinse your face with cool water after shaving and pat dry.
- Apply a small amount of balm to the face and neck.
- Massage in gently until absorbed.
Suitable for everyday use. For best results, pair with Elave Shave Gel No.003.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an aftershave and a shave balm?
Traditional aftershaves are usually alcohol based and fragranced. A shave balm is designed to hydrate and soothe, which makes it a better fit for sensitive or dry skin.
Is Elave Shave Balm suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes. It is fragrance free, alcohol free and free from common irritants such as sulfates, soap, MI and colours. It does contain menthol for a cooling feel, so if your skin is very reactive, patch test first.
Can I use it every day?
Yes. It is designed for daily use after shaving.
Does it leave a greasy finish?
No. It is a light balm that absorbs quickly.
Can I use it with the Elave Shave Gel?
Yes. Elave Shave Gel No.003 and Elave Shave Balm are designed to be used together as a simple shaving routine for sensitive skin.
Do I still need a moisturiser?
For most skin types the balm is enough after shaving. If your skin is very dry, apply your usual moisturiser once the balm has absorbed.
