A shaving brush is a grooming tool used to apply shaving cream or soap to the face before shaving. Typically made from synthetic fibers or animal hair, such as badger or boar, the brush helps create a rich lather that softens facial hair and prepares the skin for a smoother shave. Using a shaving brush can enhance the shaving experience by exfoliating the skin and lifting the hair for a closer cut. It also allows for better distribution of the shaving product, ensuring that every area is adequately covered for optimal results.
