Shaving is the removal of hair, by using a razor or any other kind of bladed implement, to slice it down to the level of the skin. Shaving is most commonly practiced by men to remove their facial hair and by women to remove their leg and underarm hair. A man is called clean-shaven if he has had his beard entirely removed.
Both men and women sometimes shave their undercheek hair, chest hair, abdominal hair, leg hair, underarm hair, pubic hair or any other bodily hair. Head shaving is much more common among men. It is often associated with religious practice, the armed forces and some competitive sports such as swimming, running and extreme sports
Razor burn is an irritation of the skin caused by using a blunt blade or not using proper technique. It appears as a mild rash 2--4 minutes after shaving (once hair starts to grow through sealed skin) and usually disappears after a few hours to a few days, depending on severity. In severe cases, razor burn can also be accompanied by razor bumps, where the area around shaved hairs get raised red welts or infected pustules. A rash at the time of shaving is usually a sign of lack of lubrication. Razor burn is a common problem, especially among those who shave coarse hairs on areas with sensitive skin like the bikini line, pubic hair, underarms, chest, and beard. The condition can be caused by shaving too closely, shaving with a blunt blade, dry shaving, applying too much pressure when shaving, shaving too quickly or roughly, or shaving against the grain.
Ways to prevent razor burn include keeping the skin moist, using a shaving brush and lather, using a moisturizing shaving gel, shaving in the direction of the hair growth, resisting the urge to shave too closely, applying minimal pressure, avoiding scratching or irritation after shaving, avoiding irritating products on the shaved area (colognes, perfumes, etc.) and using an aftershave cream with aloe vera or other emollients. Also, it is good to prepare the skin for shaving by cleansing the area to be shaved with a wash containing salicylic acid, to facilitate the removal of oils and dead skin.[citation needed] Putting a warm, wet cloth on one's skin helps as well, by softening hairs. This can also be done by using pre-shave oil before the application of shaving cream. One other technique involves exfoliating the skin before and after shaving, using various exfoliating products, included but not limited to, mitts and luffa. This process removes dead skin cells, reducing the potential for ingrown hairs and allowing the razor to glide across the skin smoothly decreasing the risk of the razor snagging or grabbing causing razor burn.

Yep. I switched to a disposable 1 blade a while back and that did the trick. Expensive multi-blades are all marketing. Every year they add a blade. Just more razor burn.
Winston Churchill Thank you Mr Churchill
Me too... Bic single cheap works perfect
Try a safety razor for god sake don’t use a 1 blade disposable they’re shocking
My skin on my neck is so sensitive, the thought ot going against the grain makes me shiver lol
me too
Have you tried using sensitive skin based shaving products? That could help ya. Try using the Proraso White series. That line is specifically for those with sensitive and easily irritated skin.
Same haha
Try product from Cherri Naturals, that is what I used!
Same here
wow I never even thought that the amount of blades makes it worse! I always thought the more blades the better 0.o
Me too, but it makes perfect sense. I think ill let my nice Fusion proglide 3 razor go and purchase a DE razor and focus on two passes maximum. I love the shaved look but hate the irritation,rashes,and razor bumps that follow for days afterwards.
Right me to hun shout out from Ireland
This guy is wrong though. A 5 blade razor puts less pressure on your skin. Plus when I use a one blade razor I have to go over the skin more times anyway. Plus those tend to pull hair out. There's more to it than how many blades you use. Those cheap bic razors make my face feel like it's on fire.
me too , im here with a 5 blade with really sensitive skin xD
@@jgyrwa no doubt you've moved into a safety razor/ shavette by now, I did not long back and I found out Derby blades made it worse, even with a pre shave lotion, purchased some Astra blades (same price) and it made a whole load of difference
I used to suffer really badly from razor rash on my legs when I used to use disposables, but once I bought a decent gillette razor the problem went away. It's interesting that you had the opposite reaction. Goes to show how brilliantly different we all are. Also great tip with using oil instead of shaving gel. My boyfriend began using a shaving oil (I forget what it's called now) about a year ago instead of his normal shaving gel and hasnt had any razor rash since either!

Regular exfoliation is also really important, I have found. It prevents hairs from getting trapped under the first layer of your skin, your epidermis, when the hairs begin to grow back after shaving, thus not giving you folliculitis. A mechanical type of exfoliant/scrub (tiny beads suspended in shower-gel or lotion) has proven to be the best.
My skin is sensitive so I also can't shave everyday - I have to wait at least 4 days but my hair regrowth is really fine though. And I've heard that keeping your blades dry after shaving (as in, don't let them stay in the shower where they'll stay wet) helps your blades last longer.
THANK YOU!!! just recently i shaved my legs in a rush and got the worst and most itchy razor bumps ever! it lasted for THREE DAYS :(( thanks to you, i now know what caused it! being all hectic i actually went over the same area about 6 times REALLY fast. i won't do it anymore and will remember to exfoliate prior! :)
Something I have learned also from years of shaving is using hot water on my legs to soften the hair. After I do that I use a loofa sponge to get the dead skin cells and then I use a conditioner as a shaving gel. I never have thought to use oils. Will have to try that. Thanks! =]
why do i get bumps not immediately after but one two days after, only on my chest 🤔
Because your hair are starting to grow back
@Evaan Aditya if you dont go against the grain you wont get clean shave, so
Evaan Aditya do you recommend against the grain on the face?
Evaan Aditya im trying this method because i want more hair on my face btw im middle eastern so im trying to make the process of the growth fast instead waiting till my mid 20’s for the full growth.
Ingrowns
Used to get such bad irritation from my gillete proglide. Started using a de safety razor loaded with gillete platinum and I have no irritation at all after shaving
good for you..........nice to see someone doing there homework.....keep it up
I think soaking the hair in hot water, using hair conditioner and not shaving too fast, shaving slow makes razor burn less
Very interesting,I'm glad you mentioned that its NOT a sin to go against the grain,as I always Finnish my shave of that way,and it feels so much smoother than with the grain.
Good bit about the number of blades. Never thought about it that way.
+David Williams I switched back to the old school double edge razors, and straight razors, much better shaves, and less skin irritation for me.
It's terrible advice. He couldn't be more wrong. The five blade razors distribute the pressure better, giving you a better shave with less skin irritation. This guy simply doesn't know what he's talking about, he disparages the best razor on the market (Gillette Fusion), and recommends absolute garbage.
Curly hair grows back through the follicle at an angle and pokes the skin irritating it. Also, super coarse hair also busts through the tiny follicle irritating it as it grows as well. Those two factors should be considered by those who suffer. I have battled these bumps and/or rashing a day or 2 after shaving as well. I stopped shaving against the grain on my neck or head. I stopped shaving my chest decades ago. Too much pain to look purdy ;-)
Same I have coarse curly hair, I have to shave with the grain or else I get bad bumps no matter what
Problem solved: buy a DE safety razor. They are much sharper and the blades are only cents each. you can buy 100 blades for $14 - plus they are heaps cooler then disposable shavers.
Dark elixer?

Not easy as you think. You need time

your videos are always perfect timing my husband is having terrible razor burn and I've bought him the dermalogica and clinique men's shaving kits with no success! ive been telling him about exfoliating and using a heavy conditioner to shave with for years! can't wait to show him this video!
Tell him to quit being lazy
@@D_MAGGyou have a bad attitude
I think you just saved my life x3
Also if you have an hydrating anti-irritation shaving cream, you can let it on your skin for 1-2 minutes after shaving to calm down the burn.
Thank you so much for this, Wayne. I have had trouble with ingrown hairs and razor bumps on my legs for years!
I get it very badly and I’ve got it again today and I’m going swimming tomorrow , will that make it flare up?
I've been using hair conditioner for three years now, after discovering when I ran out of shaving cream... Thanks for an amazing videos !!!
Thanks for the advice! I will try some of this.
Great video, Wayne. Just one thing, though.. You didn't really distinguish razor burn from "bumps", or ingrown hairs. A product like Tend Skin or another BHA product is not designed to treat razor burn, the sensitivity/abrasion caused by shaving, but does help treat and prevent ingrown hairs (bumps). But you're absolutely right otherwise, esp about the soap-based shaving foams. They can completely dehydrate the skin, exacerbating any sensitivity or tendency towards ingrowns.
Been using an electric razor for years. Bought an DE razor Feather ASD2 , porasso pre shave, van de Hagen luxury soap , and an after shave.“ STOP USING CAN SHAVING CREAM ... BAD FOR YOUR SKIN. SOAP IN A TUBE OR SHAVE SOAP IS BEST.” Got a really great shave from this razor. Can’t wait till my next.
Just go for wet shaving with a DE razor and you'll get rid of the irritation. There is a lot of info on Google, just type in wet shaving.
I am even grateful for this video even tho I don't have this problem. My husband has this problem the worst! And it is so persistent that the army doesn't make him cut his beard that much because his razor bumps cover his whole face. Being a skin care fanatic I have done many things to help him including pluck all ingrown hairs individually. Your tips were so simple I don't know why I didn't think of this myself.
Helpful video, Wayne. Thanks.
How do you wash that almond or olive oil off your face, though? Or do you leave the remains in there?
Try using cold water on the razor use warm water on your face but use cold water on the razor that should help prevent razor burn and bumps.
Thank you so much for this. My husband gets bumps REALLY bad on his neck, and this might be the trick to fix it! :) Thanks it again!
Mine does too, did this help?
I recently got razor burn on my legs, and let me just say it was red and quite itchy. I really recommend not trying to save your legs without water or shaving cream, because it will result to the annoying burns. I just tried to apply aloe Vera gel, which cools the area, and rubbed my legs with an ice cube in a cloth, and that really Helped!
im just scared to shave at this point ima let my beard grow out
I feel ya
I love that you explained the "what", and I would have loved your video even more had you described the "why". Talk science to me. You're telling me the solution to all is to either change the razor or add some other chemicals to my face.
I have a thick beard and sensitive skin. I will try your advice but I am seriously thinking about just getting the hair on my neck permanently removed by laser.
I have always had extremely sensitive skin on my legs after shaving. They would burn like fire and the only thing I found that worked was Gold Bond Medicated Lotion. It worked after a few minutes but didn't smell very nice. I have been using my hair conditioner on my legs and it works amazingly! I will never buy shaving lotion/foam again!
Love the "mix oil & conditioner" idea to make a shaving balm :) Thanks!
I hope you don't mind if I respond but I just solved this problem for myself after I had some trouble with that. I use a body scrub and exfoliated my skin before applying shaving cream. Then I use a new (or pretty new) razor and shave the direction of the hair first. Then (this applies more to the bikini area) hold the skin taut and shave in the opposite direction. The less strokes you need the less chance of irritation. Then apply Bikini Zone. It's AMAZING for irritation and redness.
i only have it in the neck how does it go away?
It goes away if u stop shaving for some time usually.. Also try to use salicylic acid right after you shave. That will help with skin issues after shaving, i do that and i almost never get redness or razor bumps/burns anymore.
and be very mindful about which products you use to shave WITH and after shaving aswell.. Most of the products out there are bad and irritating because they contain too much bad alcohols or other irritating ingredients like menthol etc. also avoid perfume because it is bad for skin it has not purpose other than giving the product some smell..
DaanV9 use a alum block after shaving!
I have them on the neck/scalp/back the head as well. I started getting them when I was young, I have curly hair and apparently when the hair grows back it starts to grow into the skin (ingrown hairs). I use bumpstoppers double strenght after each haircut but I also use when I shave my face. They have not gone away but the bumps have dramatically shrunk. Also just tell your barber or person that cuts your hair to be gentle in this area. I also used to cut my hair really really short. I would use a 0 or double zero. Now I use a three all over.
Gus589 hey man, i also have curly hair but the bumps never really appeared but then i got thicker facial hair in my neck so i also did get the razor bumps. i luckily dont have them on my head. but i bought an electric razor and the bumps in my neck are almost away! maybe my skin was to sensitive for razor blades or shaving foam?
I switched to a rose gold safety razor and the single blade is not only much better and recyclable it's also much cheaper.
This may not work for everyone but it works perfectly for me.
1. wash your face and neck with soupy water to remove any grease/oil & dirt from your skin.
2. Grab a cloth and rinse it under a hot tap then wipe your face and neck this will open your pores.
3. make sure before you apply shaving cream that your face is wet.
4 . apply shaving cream.
5. start shaving,only shave in the direction the hair is growing because going against it can cause irritation!
6 when you have finished shaving wash your face down with cold water this will close your pores and stop dirt from entering.
7. dry your face and apply shaving balm (this isn't essential)
like i said this may not work for everyone but give it a go you never know :)
Oh and i don't think it really matters what razor you use i personally find the Gillette ones the best, i dont
think it makes a difference how many blades it has,after all people wouldn't spend ages creating a razor thats gonna fuck your face now are they? lol
grant but when i go against the grain it always has stubble. I can't do that.
Pores do not open or close. It's a myth. Hot water and steam can help loosen the sebum that builds up inside pores. Once that sebum gets cleared out, pores appear smaller.
dioni82 didn't know that. Makes more sense actually.
long time ago i had huge pproblems with irritation and i tried so many things. after i stopped shaving against the grain, i almost never get irritated anymore, the better i follow the grain the less stubble there is.
it takes only one pass to get a good shave, then for second pass i strech my skin and get a very clean shave. it is slightly worse then shaving against the grain, but it is noticable only after a day.
also, the shaver of my choice is mach 5, i am able to do much longer cuts than with cheap disposable razors and much less cuts.
also, like grant wrote, 1. clean the face then warm it up to relax the hairs, apply shaving cream and chave, rinse , apply cream again and shave again rinse, dry and then shaving balm.
works perfectly
it works for me, I do practically the same thing. But 2 days later the beard is back and if I shave again it will get irritated. So I can only do it again after 4 days and by then it's already huge...
I used to get razor burn/bumps really bad. I use a safety razor with feather blades and don't go against the grain. I don't use shaving products I just put a layer of castor oil and then I use a foaming tea tree oil face wash on top of that. Afterwards I use a baking soda paste on my neck. Works really well for me. Those multiple blade razors pull the hair out the skin too far and give you ingrown hairs.
I get white bumps about 1.5 days after shaving just on the Lower throat that are beyond itchy. Any thoughts on why? I’ve tried multiple razor styles, multiple products. No idea.
Did you find out why and if yes how did you solve it ??
I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses conditioner to shave. It also helps if you keep your razor in good condition. Keep it dry when your not using it and I've found that if you spray rubbing alcohol on your ravor after you use it that it helps keep it really clean.
I've been having a problem with razor bumps lately. I've stopped shaving now for about a week to give it a chance to go down and I'm keeping it trim with an electric razor. It's fading a bit but I'll give it another week or so. I bought almond oil, conditioner and a safety razor (as it only uses one blade) for when I shave again. Do you reckon safety razors are ok to use, or do they abrade the skin?
How did it go, Dylan?
@Ashy SouI I hope good, my Merkur 34C HD is arriving tomorrow (:
hope you don't mind, but another way of preventing razor burn is to use Cetrabane which is an emollient water based cream sold in pump bottles and is non allergic
I’ve tried using a Muhle safety razor, and honestly I just cut my face to shreds. Having said that, my cheeks were baby smooth. How can I avoid these bumps?
I went over to DE safety razor as well to learn how to properly shave. I wanted to get rid of bumps too. I have the same issue - my cheecks are nice but my neck doesn't like shaving :(
Shaving the face isn’t a problem for me just the neck!!!
It's very important to keep a new, clean blade/razor at all times. In the shower/sink(any wet surface) bacteria can live. When you shave, you take off small pieces of the top layers of skin, giving those germs an easier way to enter the folicles causing infection. Razor bumps or ingrown hairs also come from not exfoiliating, that's where the bha products come in and a good skin refinishing routine. =)
Straight hair is easier to shave than curly hair.
There’s really no cure when your hair is curly. Not that I know of.
Curly life sucks sometimes
you can pluck 'em
@@MusikCabaret Dont pluck
Yea I have curly hair I hate it. Any of you guys have tips?
Michael Scott try using electric
These tips (you directed towards your face and possibly legs) apply to anything you might shave!
Absolutely love your videos! So informative and to the point. You, sir, are a wealth of knowledge! Thank you for sharing!
I use Nair and have been for years!!! Ugh, it's the best! I rub my own damn legs they're so smooth! Turns out my skin didn't like metal against "pedal" so it may not be your razor or cream. Hydrocortisone is the best salve to use after b/c it prevents inflammation/the bumps and absorbs in the skin. Neo just sits on top and irritates the area.
For anyone with sensitive skin, use grape seed oil. Some break out with olive oil.
I just bought a 5 blade razor for my legs about a week ago, thinking it would be better at getting a close smooth shave but now instead my legs are incredibly sore and covered in red bumps. Now I know why...
Same here I got red bumps all over my leg
Ya I use a 2 or 3 razor blade and I was doing my arm pits and I am just hitting that time so I went over my arm pits with the razor like 5 times >~
I never thought about the number of blades. I used to think the more blades the better. What you said makes perfect sense. Brilliant!
The exact opposite works for me but hopefully you helped out a lot of others so thumbs up! 👍
I shaved today and I had massive bumps i didn't know what to do... I come to youtube and see this in my sub box... THANK YOU WAYNE !!!!
Thank you so much for all the advice, you've made my life so much easier!
I've been using Nivea's Shower and Shave for a year now. It's awesome. I just lather it to my legs, shave and wash it off. It leaves my skin so smooth after washing of the product and no razor burns.
Great info for my husband! Thank you so much, you are so adorable
i also use conditioner to shave my legs and underarms, works really well, or even just regular shower gel. Like Wayne said, you just need something to help the razor glide! thank you x
Wish I knew this before I went all Edward scissors hands on my face 😫😫
I used to have a lot of problem with razor burn and bumps. I found that for me, the speed at which i shaved mattered. I go very slowly now and only with the grain. When I did get irritation or bumps I used Neosporin on the bumps and it worked magic, and calamine lotion on the burn. It knocks it out quick. I also find that after I shave I need to protect my neck from my beard to prevent irritation over night.
the talk about how you love shaving was reaaally weird :DD love you though :D
Thanks so much Wayne. My daughter and I ran out of anything to use on the skin while shaving, so grabbed a bit of conditioner…lol, it worked better than anything. But my son didn’t want to try it. He will probably use this/these methods though! Thank you very much! Finally, one of the male make up specialist speaking of skin care! So frickin important since you have beards. And not enough beard care or face care for men….and they are too afraid to look weak or unmanly asking. So it perpetuates.
Hugs. Thanks!
“Obviously I have a beard” no sir, you have stubble 😂😂
Safety razors are the best I have a 1964 Gillette Dlim Adjustable I use feather blades and I use a brush and artisan shave soap
more blade more problems - go DE
You're welcome! I hope it works for you! I find that shaving cream makes a huge difference, honestly. I definitely get razor burn if I don't use it - hopefully it will fix your problems.
If you can't get witch hazel there is a product called Tend Skin which basically does the same thing, that might be easier to find.
you need to switch to DE shaving - much much better for your skin and wallet...
+Fielding great...
what is DE shaving
Michael Double Edge Safety Razor
Nå ja du er jo dansker kan jeg se :) Ved du hvor man kan købe en god de shaver og hvilken en der er god at starte med tilfældigvis? tak på forhånd
Det bedste sted er e-bay og det er altid en god ide at starte med en mild skraber som fx GIlette Tech som er en af mine yndlings og så en starte pack med 10 eller 15 forskelllige de blade for at finde et blad der passer dig :)
Quit using foaming agents 15yrs ago. I also have always shaved against the grain with at most a triple bladed razor, using usually just a disposable. No bumps or burns or anything except the random nick from a blade I forgot I had used & didn't toss. Shower gel with shea butter or something else simple I don't need anything fancy. Also, my last step in a 10min shower if that makes a difference. Baby oil gel afterwards &done. .
Don't shave, you're gorgeous with a bit of beard :)
I have very sensitive skin the best thing is like you said exfoliate before and when done I user aspercreme (the lidocaine non menthol) no razor burn or bumps ever again!
That’s not a beard bro...
Can’t wait to see how this works for me. I think I’m going to try a one blade. I’m part Italian my neck hair is course and EXTREMELY coily and it goes back into my skin resulting in an ingrown hair. I’ll start off going towards the grain. With a TON of raw coconut oil!! Just unsure on conditioner because my skin is sensitive and conditioners have fragrances and chemicals. Might be dicy. I’ve struggled with this for so many decades.
I’ll take an immediate 5 o’clock shadow any day over razor burn! Any day.
It makes sense. Two blade worked well for me, now 3 to 4 seem to irritate and even cut more often.
My boyfriend started using art of shaving and has been amazed by it. It has an oil and he address that part.
I have super sensitive skin & i found that it helps to exfoliate my legs 1st & after shaving i use coconut or argon oil. This has helped me so much! I will try shaving with almond oil & see if this gives more benefit. Thanks Wayne!
BTW, I alternate waxing and rasor....and when using rasor, hair conditioner is the most helpful trick EVER! .........i will mix with oil, thanks Wayne!
Yep, hair conditioner is great for shaving, I've done it in a pinch but usually I use oil. You have to rinse the razor more carefully afterwards though.
I have really sensitive skin, and I got rid of my razor burn. First, I stopped using shaving cream, and started using a facial cleanser by Noxzema. It really helped because of the menthol. Then, I started using shavers for sensitive skin by Bic. Then, I shaved downward on the parts of my face where there was hair except my jawline where I shaved sideways, and the sides of my neck, where I shaved upward. Then I shaved before I showered. All these changes together got rid of my razor burn.
Great info. I stopped shaving because of the irritation. Now I'm using nair since its faster and no irritation or bumps
omg thanku so much for this video..My 18 yr old son always gets razor bumps no matter what...i'm going to try this on him and hopefully u cured our problem!!!
try exfoliating more often, i normal do it b4 shaving/waxing so all the trapped hairs are lifted, if theyv gotten really ingrown u might have to tweeze them out but exfoliating 2 or three times a week should really help in future
I used to wax & that would really irritate my skin so after years of putting up with it i went back to a razor.I use 2 blade gillette venus zazor now & they give me no trouble at all also I use their dry/sensitive skin shaving gel with it...which surprised me because my skin on my face & body is very sensitive to pretty much everything i.e. new products, sun exposure & environment. Ive never ever had razor burn & I think a lot of it comes down to the AMOUNT of shaving you do,not the actual razor
I love to see I'm not the only guy subscribed to Wayne! Awesome notes!
I have found that if you exfoliate your legs with a sugar scrub prior to shaving that it tends to prevent ingrown hairs, hope this helps you :)
With ingrown hairs you have to pick them out, or else they get really painful. Usually just some tweezers can get it, otherwise it will just keep growing into your skin until it gets infected/forced out. I don't know how to prevent them, just take your time when shaving and be gentle to keep irritation at a minimum
I switched to a Muehle safety razor, a Muehle shaving brush - I will never go back to a multi-blace razor! It is cheap to change the blade, you can have a sharp blade without struggling with the high replacement price. You will automatically change them more often and your shave will be on point, no painfully pulling of the multi-blade setup, you get all the hair without pressure and in one go. One round with the grain, one against and you are done. Be smart and go back to the great stuff :D !
I used to get really bad burn on my neck I use a big sensitive one blade disposable razor and shave up on my neck with shaving gel. It works great. I hope this helps somebody
If you use something like Cremo or a shea butter soap with other butters added to it lets say, then use your brush and shaving soap or shave cream, it will take care of alot of that.
Applying the slick stuff first will give that protection barrier you need. Also use a moisturizing after shave balm, after u shave then later you can put on your regular after shave or cologne.
works for me anyway
great tip about oil shaving, I must try it. I definitely use oil (coconut or olive) for moisturizing, regular lotion irritates my skin too much.
The problem I had when using oil or conditioner was they clogged up the blade.How do you do it and not get the blade all clooged up.Rinsing it didn't remove the conditioner.You are so smart and I learn a lot from you and also such eye candy.It seems everyone I watch from the Uk is so damn good looking.
Probably nothing, but here's some tips. a) Make sure your hair is soft - so don't shave right when you get in the shower, shave at the very end b) Use lots of shaving cream (hair conditioner works too) c) Make sure your razor is sharp (and clean!) d) Shave against the grain on your legs BUT shave with the grain on your bikini line e) Make sure your skin is really wet.
I used to get really bad razor burn and I changed my routine to the above and I haven't had a problem since.
Which one is better: electric shavers or regular razors? I've always used electric shaver and my skin is very sensitive, so I'm very prone to bumps on my neck. My dermatologist gave me a prescription cream made of azulene, allantoin and hamamelis (witch-hazel) in order to prevent and heal my razor bumps, but it doesn't work. Please, should I change my shaver? Thank you :)
I also have extremely oily skin. I get really oily about 2 hours after my makeup application. I found that using Murad's Oil-Control Mattifier helped soooo much. I tried a sample of it and it definitely made a huge difference in how oily my skin got. I think its quite pricey though so i have not actually gotten a full size of the product yet. I reeeaaally hope you try this product trust me you will not regret it!!!
Braun electric machin and the moistoriser are the best solution
Thank you so much! Finally someone else has discovered the same thing I have found works, I also find short strokes work well and making sure the shaving lotion or creme sits on the skin for at least three minutes.
I don't really know why menthol is supposed to irritate your skin. It works really well with my skin, and my skin is very sensitive. Also, I never pull my skin when shaving, I shave each area of my face once, and I shave against the grain in one area and with the grain in another. I never do both in the same area, and my razor burn disappeared.
I'm glad I subscribed to your channel! This is the best time for this kind of information, and you're always so knowledgeable. Thank you so much :D
i use almond oil everyday on my skin in place of a moisturiser. I heard that it helps with scarring caused by acne. I also use rose water on my face as a toner beforehand. Would you recommend this routine? ( 23 year old. Asian, previously acne prone but now calmed down with meds, combination/oily skin)
ty for the video. one of the reasons ive stopped shaving is because of these really gross red bumps on my face after shaving. i only use a two bladed razor, but still after shaving it never fails. i get these gross red bumps and they take like 3-4 days to heal and they are very unsightly. i dont know what causes them tbh.
I still have around 15 gillete cartridges left. After they are all dull (in rougly 6 months) I will definitely try Safety razors!
