Estrid

We're thrilled to be the winner of 'Best Razor' in this year's Men's Health Grooming Awards. Our new face razor provides a world-class shave that, unlike the big guys... doesn't overpromise but underdeliver. For the first time since our founding 5 years ago, we're proud to introduce a new razor to our line-up, perfectly optimised for face. We wanted to challenge Big Shave's "iteration without innovation" ethos, creating a face razor without charging you for bells and whistles you don't actually need, while providing an expert, world-class shave at a fair price.

Did you know that 67% of male systems razors purchased in the UK are purchased by women... ...It's true! In part due to a commonly held myth that men’s razors give a smoother shave, offer more sophisticated technology, and provide a better value. With the launch of our new razor designed specifically for the face, we challenge industry giants’ misleading marketing to uncover the truth that men’s and women’s razors share the same blade technology - they simply offer different features to give the best shave according to the part of the body they are designed to shave: faces for men and bodies for women. Challenging the outdated notion of “men’s razors” and “women’s razors,” our new blade redefines the razor for the way people really shave, not who they are. Our new facial blades and best-selling body blades both feature award-winning, five-blade technology that delivers the smoothest of shaves for face or body. "There is no such thing as men’s and women's razors; that's a marketing stunt. But there is such a thing as good and bad razors, and there is definitely an issue with overpricing in this category. So no matter which part of you needs shaving, Estrid is once again at your service to provide an alternative that is better, smoother and saves you money." -Ben Eliass, CEO & Co-Founder

Razors for every body - and now (finally!) for every face. For the first time since our founding 5 years ago, we're launching a new razor. Meet the very Swedish, very lagom (not too much, not too little, but just right) face razor. Challenging the outdated macho marketing of "Big Shave," we took inspiration from our Scandi roots of understated, no-fuss minimalism to create a world-class shave that, unlike the big guys, doesn't overpromise but underdeliver.

Introducing EMBODY CONFIDENCE, Estrid's summer campaign-- With this campaign, we aim to ignite a global conversation on beauty and identity, confronting an industry that continues to censor real bodies and real issues, while empowering and inspiring our three million strong community of subscribers and brand fans to embody confidence themselves. In a society cluttered with filters and faux ideals, we fight against censorship to dismantle outdated beauty norms and celebrate the unedited, unapologetic essence of everybody. "As always we want to be bold and break new ground for the entire industry. After decades of monopoly, we are reshaping how an entire category looks and feels - there has never been a hair removal campaign with this creative expression. We also want our community to feel represented through the things we do. Empowering our community is our mission, and this campaign continues the celebration of that as our brand ethos." - Ben Eliass We collaborated with award-winning creative director Jamie Brunskill to bring this concept to life. It was photographed by Zoe Francesca Mannella, known for her unflinching and uncensored photography which celebrates the female form. The campaign features the hair artistry of internationally renowned hair artist Ali Pirzadeh, known for his ability to transform hair into sculptural works of art, and his arresting work for fashion brands including Alexander McQueen, Louis Vuitton and Acne Studios. In this campaign, Pirzadeh used the medium of hair to design elaborate motifs, with artistry at the core. We also worked with Brixton Klaws, a British nail artist passionate about reducing microplastics in the beauty industry. Her nail art incorporates predominantly vintage buttons and beads instead of plastic charms. #EmbodyConfidence #Razors
