Shaving is the most typical start
to a man's day. Getting a good shave involve skin’s sensitivity- how the skin
reacts to razors and shaving products. The following tips will help not only
get the shaving you crave, but also leave your skin looking and feeling its
best.
1. Avoid shaving in the morning.
If possible, let your skin wake up a while. This allows the
"puffiness" you encounter from fluids collecting in your skin during
the night to recede, thus allowing you to get a closer shave when you do begin
the task.
2. Wet your beard thoroughly with
warm or hot water before shaving. Well-soaked hair is much weaker and that
makes it much easier to cut.
3. Use a facial cleanser or scrub
to eradicate dead skin cells and open up the pores of the skin to prepare it
for a close shave.
4. Thoroughly massage shave cream
into stubble for one or two minutes before shaving. Use only the best shaving
cream. Note that the best shaving cream doesn’t have a lot of foam. A vitamin
and Aloe Vera based shave cream will provide a close soothing shave and protect
against razor rashes and burns.
5. Use a sharp high quality
blade. Shaving with a dull blade is responsible for many shaving cuts as it
drags over your face and catches your skin along with the hairs of your beard.
Also change the blades often and never use a disposable razor more than
once.
6. Rinse the blade often in hot
water when shaving and use slow short strokes. Take your time.
7. After shaving, apply an
oil-free moisturizer to soothe and protect the face. If you prefer an
after-shave, check the label for alcohol. Dryness and stinging sensations are
by-products of most after-shave products whose primary ingredient is alcohol.
It may feel good at the time, but alcohol based after-shaves are actually
irritating to many complexions.
Remember, the ultimate shaving
experience comes with providing antioxidant protection, so toning and balancing
the skin and restoring essential natural moisture is essential.
