ARLINGTON, Mass. — Somersets, a line of shaving and skin care products, is known for its signature bullet-shaped packaging for its shaving oil. Now the company is looking to further broaden its portfolio in 2015 with new shave products for women.

Highlighted at the recent National Association of Chain Drug Stores Total Store Expo in Boston, Somersets is launching its new Extra Delicate Shaving Gel with salicylic acid and seven essential oils to help banish bumps and blemishes; Detoxifying Bikini Zone Scrub, which uses jojoba beads to wash away flaky surface cells; and Soothing Bikini Bump Balm, which is made with essential oils to help protect skin.



The brand, which hails from the United Kingdom, is no doubt making headway stateside. Earlier this year, the company announced a retail partnership with Walgreens. The Somersets Extra Sensitive Shaving Oil for Men rolled out in more than 6,800 Walgreens locations, and Somersets After-Shave Face Balm rolled out in approximately 1,800 locations.
