Aftershaves in Brazil?

[Silas]

Hello,

my sister currently lives in Brazil. She comes back to Europe for a visit next week and I was wondering if there is a local Brazilian aftershave worth asking for to bring along? Or perhaps a shaving soap or cream?
She lives in Rio, if that matters.

Thanks in advance and have a nice weekend!

Hello my dear friends @Silas @Multum in parvo! Thank you very much for the mention.
The most traditional brand of shaving products in Brazil has been Bozzano since 1946. They are simple, cheap and of relatively good quality (I especially like the After Shave Night Blue).

There is also a razor blade produced at the P&G factory in Manaus, Amazonas, the Brazilian Wilkinson Sword, which I don't find very sharp, but it seems reasonably smooth to me.

I hope I have helped in some way.

Have a blessed weekend, my dear friends.

Check out Ruas or inga saboaria for soaps.

Thanks a lot!!
I’ll tell my sister about your recommendations!

@Beto Salatini : Can the Bozzano aftershave be found in a drug store or where should my sister go looking? What kind of scent does the ‘night blue’ aftershave have?

@Alex Jr : are those artisan shaving soaps? I can’t find Ruas but Inga saboaria seems to be an artisan if I’m not mistaking.

Thank you in advance!

Yes they are. But easy to find online.

Bozzano can be found at any drugstore. Night blue is like aqua velva on steroids. Same scent profile but stronger.

Check out Ruas

Is there any information in the forum about these Ruas soaps?

I searched but couldn't find anything.

I don’t think so since is relatively new. But word on the street is that it is top notch.

You are one lucky guy Silas !! . Ask her to bring back two 700 gram tubs of PALMIDAYA cream and 2 each of the 6 varieties of the Fixx-Modell creams. She can legally bring back aftershaves in her checked luggage so make sure and get one each of the aftershaves . Lots of blades for sale, cheap and easy to pack...

Hello dear @Silas, as our dear friend @Alex Jr mentioned, Bozzano products can easily be found in any pharmacy. In addition to Night Blue, there are also AS Mentolado (yellow) and Aloe Vera (green) which are also very good in my humble opinion.

Cheers, my friend!
