Women's Shaving

The SOOTHi can be stored in your shower—on a ledge, shelf, or soap dish—or by your sink, depending on your routine.

No matter where you store it, always place the bar with the textured grip side facing down. This keeps the moisturizing layer elevated, allowing it to air dry fully between uses and preventing it from sitting in moisture, which can cause softening or premature wear.

Before storing, make sure the surface is clean and free of residue. The moisturizing layer is highly absorbent and may easily soak up leftover soap scum, oils, or debris—potentially contaminating the bar. A quick wipe of your storage spot helps keep the bar clean, effective, and lasting longer.

Yes. While the SOOTHi is designed primarily as an aftershave to complement the STROPPi’s smooth finish, its moisturizing formula also makes it an excellent daily skin conditioner.

To use it as a daily moisturizer, simply follow the same steps as you would after shaving: wet both the bar and your skin before application to activate the moisturizing layer and ensure smooth glide. As always, be mindful of storage—allow the bar to dry between uses to prolong its life and maintain performance.

With regular use, the SOOTHi is built to last up to 12 weeks.

You’ll know it’s time for a replacement when the moisturizing surface starts to lose its shape or feel less smooth to the touch. Of course, your experience might vary based on things like your water quality, shaving habits, or how you store the bar. If you notice unusual wear or have any concerns before the 12-week mark, please reach out to us here.

The SOOTHi is designed for clean-shaven or closely trimmed skin. While it can still benefit areas with facial hair by promoting healthier, smoother skin, it’s not recommended for use over dense or untrimmed hair.

If you do choose to use it on areas with facial hair, expect slightly faster wear over time due to increased friction. We also recommend rinsing the bar thoroughly after each use to keep the moisturizing layer clean and effective.

Yes—every product we make, including the SOOTHi, is formulated with sensitive skin in mind. It delivers a cooling, hydrating finish that soothes post-shave irritation and promotes a smoother, healthier complexion over time.

If you have acne-prone or reactive skin, the SOOTHi can still be a great fit. However, we strongly recommend washing your face beforehand to remove excess oil, dirt, or residue. Like many moisturizing products, the SOOTHi creates a protective layer on your skin—so for best results, start with a clean surface to avoid sealing in unwanted impurities.

The STROPPi is built for durability and designed to stay with you through weeks of smooth, consistent shaves.

On average, it provides a minimum of 30 shaves or should last up to 12 weeks. Its lifespan may vary depending on several factors including water type, shaving frequency, stropping pressure, and how often the bar has been moved or remounted. In most cases, it can last longer than 30 shaves, but if you notice rapid wear or unexpected signs of aging, please reach out to us—we’re here to help.

This will depend greatly on your frequency of shaving. The SANSNiK Shaving Bundle For Men is designed to last for a minimum of 30 shaves. While most users find a typical replacement rate of around two months works best, we recommend replacing the bundle at the three-month mark regardless of visible wear or shaving frequency, as the product naturally begins to lose effectiveness over time.

Even if the kit still appears functional after three months, its materials will start to age in ways that can affect performance. You may notice changes in texture, especially with the STROPPi. By three months, the bar can begin to change texture or warp or peel away from its mounting position. These issue will reduce effectiveness and undermine mounting strength significantly. Your personal replacement cycle may vary depending on shaving habits and coverage areas, but to ensure optimal results, we suggest planning for a maximum lifespan of three months. If you find you’re replacing the bundle sooner due to an increased shaving schedule, selecting a more frequent subscription can help ensure you always have a fresh bundle ready for the best possible shave.

The STROPPi and SOOTHi included in the SANSNiK Shaving Bundle are designed to work together and last for more than 30 shaves.

Both products are formulated and tested to deliver balanced longevity, ensuring you won’t run out of one before the other under typical shaving routines. However, factors like shaving frequency, water quality, and storage conditions can affect wear over time. If you notice premature wear on either bar or experience any issues before the 30 shave mark, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly at the bottom of this page. We’re here to help and ensure you always get the best possible shaving experience.

For best results, we recommend mounting the STROPPi in an easy-to-reach area close to where you shave most often. If you shave facial hair, position the bar at head height to make re-stropping between passes simple and efficient. For shaving legs, underarms, or the bikini area, mount it lower for comfortable access, especially if you shave while seated.

For the most secure mounting and longest bar life, choose a smooth, uninterrupted, and non-porous surface such as large, polished tile, untextured plastic or composite, or smooth, preferably polished stone. Avoid textured, uneven, or porous areas, as they may compromise adhesion. Be sure the bar is completely dry before mounting and only moderately wetted during use; placing it in a spot with minimal direct shower spray helps prevent waterlogging, which can cause the bar to swell, soften, and become unstuck. By mounting the STROPPi close to your shaving area, on the right surface, and out of constant water flow, you’ll ensure a secure hold, extend the bar’s lifespan, and maintain peak stropping performance.

While most razors can technically be used with it, the STROPPi is specifically designed for cartridge-style razors with three or more blades.

We do not recommend using single-blade or double-blade safety razors. Multi-blade cartridges not only offer better safety during shaving but also apply more even pressure to both the bar and your blades as you strop, ensuring a smoother strop and a more consistent lubrication.
