Abstract

A shaving assembly for simultaneously applying a shaving preparation and removing hair in a single step includes a base having an upper end, a lower end and a hollow space between the upper and lower ends, whereby the hollow space defines an opening at the upper end of the base. The shaving assembly includes a receiver for a razor, such as a cartridge receiver for a razor blade cartridge, that is connected with the base and that is disposed at the opening at the upper end of the base. The cartridge receiver has a perimeter and the opening at the upper end of the base completely surrounds the perimeter of the cartridge receiver. The hollow space of the base is adapted for containing a shaving preparation, such as a soap cake, a liquid soap, shaving cream or a body wash and may be combined with skin beneficial ingredients and/or scent. In one embodiment, the body of the shaving assembly includes an adjusting element so that an adequate supply of the shaving preparation may be supplied completely around the perimeter of the cartridge receiver. In other embodiments, the shaving assembly includes a resilient element for urging the shaving preparation toward the upper end of the body. The cartridge receiver may also be movable for changing the position of the razor blade relative to the shaving preparation. The shaving assembly may also include a razor embedded in a mass of shaving preparation so that the cutting blades of the razor lie in substantially the same plane as the top surface of the shaving preparation.
