Make use of a pre-shave lotion always! So why? Your razor blade likes smooth skin. It glides easier on it. That cuts your hair closer to the follicle giving you the required close shave. It also softens and conditions your beard which makes easier to cut. And it acts as a secondary protection layer against the harmful effects of the blade scraping your skin helping to prevent shaving nicks and cuts. You become all these benefits and it only takes 10 seconds to apply if you are in a hurry. For those men who have more testosterone than I really do and shave twice daily, a pre-shave lotion/serum will definitely help get you a closer shave so that you may only need to shave once per day.
I don't like anything oily on my skin so that i would not recommend a pre-shave oil as some hard core wet razors use religiously. I prefer try using a non-oily pre-shave lotion/serum. The best pre-shave product I have found so far that meets my specific needs is a "pre-shave serum". Very few brands offer such a product but I can only suppose many more will soon. Pre-shave serums are quite hard relating to the wallet but it works miracles and is worth it! My skin is right away taut and smooth following your serum is instantly assimilated into my skin making it feel like the perfect environment with regard to my razor blade.
Shaving Recommendations #2: Shave Cream
Actually, i know using an electric shaver gets you the quickest shave possible. However it definitely does not offer you the most effective skin and shaving outcomes afterwards. Your skin is frequently roughed up because no lubrication is utilized between the shaver and your skin, and you just can't cut the hair as close being a razor blade gliding for a slick cream can.
Work with a shave cream and not a shave gel. Shave gels generally too many air pockets inside. Air pockets do not necessarily offer any skin protection from your blade. Think of your edge gliding over air pockets not over a protective ointment layer. Shave creams have considerably less air pockets inside them and thus offer a more slicker protective coverage against your razor-sharp blade. Dangerous skin redness present after shaving is a result of using an undesirable shave cream/gel/soap or using excessive pressure in the razor when shaving.
Work with a non-lathering cream. Trying to beat the clock each day, I don't have the luxurious of spending 5 minutes to whip a lather with some sort of silvertip badger shaving clean. Plus lather is merely takes a simple whipped up shave cream with many air pockets inside. This is another subject that I will like to dwell on in a future article.
Shaving Tips #3: Post-Shave
You don't just vanish after you wipe heli-copter flight excess shave cream from your face when you are done shaving. I feel the most important part of the shaving ritual is maintaining your skin's vibrancy together with elasticity post-shave. luxury shaving set
