Do I need a shaving brush?
If you're using a real shaving cream or soap, like the Supply Ultra Lather, traditional English creams, soap pucks, then yes. The cream is concentrated and needs to be whipped with water and air to become lather. That's what the brush does. If you're using canned foam, the can is doing that work already and you don't need one.

Is the brush animal and cruelty free?
Yes. The bristles are Silvertip Synthetic™ fibers, not badger or boar hair. No animal in the brush, no animal in our testing, no animal in our supply chain.

How long does the brush last?
About five years of normal use awith 2–3 shaves a week. Synthetic fibers hold their shape longer than badger hair. They don't shed and don't develop odor over time. Replace when the bristles start splaying outward and won't return to shape after rinsing.

Which is better: Synthetic vs. badger?
Price first: high-grade badger runs $80–300, this is $25. On performance, high-grade badger holds slightly more water and has a longer break-in. Silvertip Synthetic™ matches badger on water retention and softness, doesn't shed, and doesn't develop odor when stored wet.

Step 1: Soak the brush in warm water.
Run it under the tap for 20 seconds. The synthetic fibers hold the warm water all the way to your face. That's what makes the lather warm.

Step 2: Load the brush.
Swirl the damp brush over a quarter-sized scoop of shaving cream. In a bowl, mug, or directly on your face. Keep going until you see a thick, glossy lather (10–15 seconds).

Step 3: Apply with the brush, not your hand.
Paint the lather onto your beard in circular motions. The bristles lift the hairs as they go so the blade catches each one cleanly.

Step 4: Rinse and hang to dry.
Rinse under warm water until the lather is gone. Tap dry. Hang bristles-down or rest the handle on the counter. Never let it dry sitting on the bristles.

The Tool That Makes the Cream Work

Squeezing cream from a can onto your fingers and rubbing it on your face is not lathering. It is smearing foam.

A brush does three things your fingers can't: whips air into the cream until it doubles in volume, warms the lather against the bristles, and lifts every beard hair away from the skin so the blade has something to cut.

Face Cream, shaving cream, brush etc…

Supply is my go-to moisturizer and shaving cream brand. This combination of products has made others on my toiletries shelf redundant and superfluous to my needs. Smooth, and odorless they accompany me wherever I travel throughout the year. Love them. Thank you!

Great shaving brush for the price

I've used the Silvertip Synthetic Shaving Brush for about a week now. It replaces a boar's hair silvertip brush. It's not quite as soft, which makes it easier to make a great lather in my shaving bowl. I've also just started using the platinum label blades, replacing the black label blades. I am very impressed with the difference. Closer and more comfortable shave for sure!

Great to hear that you are loving the shaving brush, Joseph! I really appreciate you for sharing! Thank you so much!

Silvertip Synthetic Shaving Brush

I had never before used a shaving brush. The Supply Silvertip Synthetic Shaving Brush is soft and flexible. It applied the Supply Ultra Shaving Cream evenly. It was a far better experience than using my prior name-brand shaving gel.

Thank you so much for giving your shaving brush a 5-star review, William! Let us know if there is ever anything we can do for you!

Finally A Quality Brush

To be honest, I thought the brushes I shaved with in the past were quality brushes….until I bought this brush.

The feel of this brush is incredible, and I like the heft of the handle. It loads up quite nicely and creates a beautiful lather with my shaving soap. It’s hard to put into words the difference between this brush and my previous brushes. You'll understand when you own one.

Meet my fuzzy little friend

Hello, I’m just writing this review to share how much I enjoy using the Supply synthetic shaving brush.
It kind of makes shaving fun again, I feel like I’m treating myself to a spa day or something like that.
The brush does a great job of distributing the lather in a very smooth and even manner, setting up for a great shave.
I actually am really enjoying this brush, and highly recommend it

Shave Brush

My first brush broke after just a week. I reached out and had a new one sent with no hassle which has worked great.

Nice brush

Comfortable, easy to clean, and works up a great lather quickly. Overall, great.

One of the best shaving investments

The handle feels sturdy and comfortable. The bristles are very soft and perfectly complement the bowl and ultra lather shaving cream for the best lather and smoothest shave.

Thank you so much for the 5-star review Ingrid! I'm happy that you are loving the shaving brush! Please let us know if there’s anything else we can do for you!

Awesome shave with brush

I have never used a brush or bowl before purchasing these but it really makes the shave smooth and painless. I was skeptical but pleasantly surprised.

Amazing

This brush feels so good on your face when it’s full of lather. The whole ritual of creating the lather in my Supply marble bowl and then spreading it across my face for the best shave with my Supply SE Razor makes shaving a good experience again. Thank you Patrick and the Supply Team!

Shaving brush

Works great, allows you to get a thick lather for shaving while lifting the hairs for a closer shave.

Excellent brush!

I bought this to replace an older badger bristle brush that's begun to molt.

I wish I'd done it before - this new synthetic brush suits me very well. I can get a great lather in no time, both with the Supply shaving cream and the others I like to use. It also cleans up very easily - I'm very pleased.

A FINE BRUSH

I have been using this brush for a couple of weeks now, and I have been satisfied with it's ease of use and quality. It allows for a good, even application of shaving cream. It definitely helps in making the whiskers stand up and ready to be shaved off. Only small negative would be that every time I use it, it does seem to shed a bristle here and there, so I can't really speak for it's longevity. I don't mind it since the brushes I've used in the past shed a lot more than this one. Only time will tell, but I don't see why it wouldn't last a decently long time. Overall, great brush!

Great Brush

Unlike almost all shaving brushes i've had, these don't fall out one by one as i'm shaving. Great product.

Very good quality brush

As has been my experience with all your products, this silver tip synthetic shaving brush is of excellent quality. I no longer have to contend with shedding natural hair bristles from expensive brushes. I am very satisfied with this product.

Silvertip Synthetic

Have several brushes and this is “hands down” my favorite!

Shaving Blade

The shaving is very smooth but it does not give me a very clean shave.

Secondly I need to get used to finding out the right size for my shaving . Currently I am using no 3. Even then it does not cut deep enough.
If the blades could be made to last longer than 10 days will benefit people lije us who need to shave everyday.
In summary I am well pleased with my shaver.🙏

Don’t overthink it; it’s great

I held off buying this for about 10 months after starting with my Single Edge 2.0. I thought my old brush was fine, and a synthetic backup brush I got was atrocious. Supply’s is simply a cut above other brushes I’ve had. It’s firm enough to work up a great lather and soft enough at the tip to apply thin, even layers of shave cream. Works great with Proraso and Supply’s brand.
