Tea Oil -- Enjoy a smooth, aromatic shave with Benton Clay's Tea Oil (http://bentonclay.com/?page_id=31&shopp_pid=36). Nourishes, lubricates, cushions skin. Helps skin maintain moisture and elasticity.

Organic, cold pressed, green tea seed oil is a luxury skin care ingredient used for centuries in China. Benton Clay's Tea Oil comes from the seeds of the tea plants camellia sinensis and camellia oleifera. It is said to turn aside the effects of aging, leaving skin feeling silky soft and resilient without the use of synthetic chemical ingredients or preservatives. Rich in antioxidant tocopherols and natural emollients it absorbs rapidly into skin, sealing in moisture while delivering its skin-friendly properties along with it. Benton Clay's all-natural hand blended formula is infused with green tea absolute, green tea C02 extract, chlorophyll and vitamin E while the Lavender edition adds high quality essential oils of Lavender and Australian Blue Cypress for additional skin friendliness and aromatic enjoyment.

Not intended to replace soap or creme.

Many testers thought it performed as well or better than their existing shave prep. Some enjoyed applying it after their shave. Some comments:

I have been using pre shave oils now for 5 years and would rank this up the top
Protection seemed better than most PSOs I've used in the past
I'd put it up against the Taylor's oil, which is my preferred PSO
I definitely like the viscosity, which makes it easier to spread the oil on the face. I believe it helps penetration as well, because it's worked better than my Nancy Boy or AOS...
The oil was absorbed by my skin without leaving it feeling greasy
The viscosity of your samples is similar to that of the Zirh and much much lighter than the AoS
Your oil is not as greasy feeling as the AL. It feels a little tacky between the fingers, but still provides nice lubrication and does not cause the razor to hang up in the beard

Available in 1-oz glass bottle with hygienic pump dispenser.
