How was the Movember movement born?

Movember was originally an idea born around a beer in Australia. Travis Garone and Luke Slattery challenged themselves to find 30 men willing to wear a moustache to make it fashionable again. The choice of the moustache caught people's attention.

In 2004, Adam Garone decided to use the movement's success to benefit a good cause. Initially intended to fight prostate cancer, Movember today embodies the fight for men's health. Its goal is to raise public awareness for better prevention and to raise funds for research.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the subject is all the more relevant and you have more time to trim your moustache perfectly. So go for it, it's for a good cause!

How to shave for Movember?

If you haven't shaved for a long time, we advise you to use a shaving brush for a better preparation of your skin. 

Then, take the razor of your choice - Fusion, Mach3, safety or straight - to shave your cheeks and chin, and don't forget to spare your moustache of course. 

Finally, we strongly encourage you to use an aftershave balm in order to keep your skin soft and calm the shaving fire.
