MÜHLE KOSMO Olive Wood Razor: Wood Care Guide

Quick Answer

To keep your MÜHLE KOSMO olive wood razor in top condition, rinse it with lukewarm water after each shave, dry it immediately, and apply a thin layer of food-safe mineral oil a few times a year.

Step-by-Step Wood Care for Your MÜHLE KOSMO Razor

1. Rinse with lukewarm water: After shaving, rinse the razor head and handle under lukewarm running water. Avoid hot water, which can dry out the wood and cause cracking. Never use hot water or soak the handle.
2. Dry immediately: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the entire razor, paying extra attention to the wood handle. Let it air-dry completely before storing. Moisture left on the wood is the main cause of damage.
3. Apply oil periodically: A few times a year, rub a small amount of food-safe mineral oil or beeswax into the wood with a soft cloth. Let it absorb for a few minutes, then buff off any excess. Oil keeps the wood from drying out, but too much can leave a sticky residue.
4. Store in a dry place: Keep the razor in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and humidity. Avoid leaving it in a closed, damp bathroom cabinet. Consistent humidity is better than alternating wet and dry conditions.
