BOLT Skin + Shave, the brainchild of UT entrepreneur Adam Barker, is proud to announce its entrance into the men’s grooming industry. Distinctively catering to men who shave their legs, BOLT Skin + Shave is the first and only brand of its kind, introducing a revolutionary suite of razors and shave products intentionally designed and formulated for men’s leg shaving.
Men who shave their legs have silently bided their time in a feminine marketplace for years. With the launch of BOLT Skin + Shave, these men can finally welcome a brand that acknowledges their needs with a more masculine approach to leg shaving in aesthetic, function and fragrance.
“We recognized a significant gap in the market for men who shave their legs. This is happening, yet no brand has acknowledged the athletes and everyday guys who prefer to live that smooth life,” Barker said. “With BOLT Skin + Shave, we’re taking an activity that has been completely overlooked, and turning it into an experience.”
BOLT Skin + Shave enters the marketplace with a foundational product suite designed and formulated for leg shaving in the shower:
1. Performance Razor: Designed for larger hands. Tuned for men’s coarse leg hair. Weighted to perfection. BOLT’s 5-blade performance razor utilizes exceptionally sharp Swedish steel. Its zinc alloy and no-slip rubber handle ensures that every swipe is a stroke of perfection.
2. Shave Butter: Say “so long” to leg spackle disguised as shaving cream. The Shave Butter works as a subtle cushion and lubricating layer between skin and the razor blade. All this while still washing away quickly and efficiently as you clean out your razor cartridge.
3. Exfoliating Leg Scrub: Rid your legs of dead skin buildup and arm yourself against ingrown hairs with our Exfoliating Leg Scrub. This tube of too smooth packs a punch with natural ingredients like bamboo exfoliator, pumice, coconut extract and aloe vera extract. Men don’t know they’ve been missing the magic link…until now.
4. Post Shave Lotion: Infused with soothing ingredients like grapeseed and jojoba oil, the Post Shave Lotion provides the final soothing piece to the smoothness puzzle. Light notes of sandalwood and bergamot smell fantastic, while a dash of menthol yields just the right amount of scintillating post shave tingle.
5. CBD Recovery Balm: Harnessing the power of CBD, the recovery balm delivers targeted relief to improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation and ail aches and pains.
6. Cartridge Refill Box: Identical to those that ship with the Performance Razor, these cartridges are built with Swedish specialty steel blades that have been fine-tuned, adjusted and balanced for men’s coarser leg hair. The patented 5-blade cartridge, enveloped in a soothing lubricating layer of aloe vera and vitamin E yields a remarkably smooth shave and helps in minimizing nicks and cuts.
Since its launch, BOLT Skin + Shave has garnered widespread acclaim, with an overwhelmingly positive reception from consumers. Barker was even featured on a recent episode of the hit entrepreneurial podcast How I Built This With Guy Raz.
“I’ve been shaving my legs for most of my adult life with a pink razor and a bar of soap. I figured there had to be a better way for us men who shave our legs,” Barker said of the company’s origins. “Turns out…there wasn’t. So we built it.”
