After Shaving: How to Protect Your Skin?

Whether with a manual or electric razor, shaving tends to irritate the skin. Redness, cuts, pimples, ingrown hairs, in short, so many problems when we shave regularly. That's why applying an aftershave cream is as important as shaving itself. Between cuts, redness, and irritation, it's essential to adopt an aftershave treatment tailored to your skin type.

What is the Purpose of an Aftershave Lotion?

The skin becomes very sensitive after the razor blade passes over it, so it needs to be soothed. This is where aftershave treatment comes into play, whether it's a balm or lotion. In fact, the latter helps to moisturize the skin, improve the healing of cuts, and provide a refreshing sensation.

What Should You Do After Shaving?

The first thing to do after shaving is to wash your face with cold water. Cold water will remove any remaining foam while closing the pores of the skin. Then, pat your face dry with a towel. Above all, avoid rubbing, as it will further irritate the skin. Next, apply an aftershave product to soothe and moisturize the skin. Avoid treatments that contain alcohol, as they can promote skin irritation. Regular exfoliation should be done to soften beard hair. It will also refine the texture of the skin and remove dead cells. However, remember that it's not recommended to exfoliate immediately after shaving, as your skin will be even more sensitive. Preferably, exfoliate in the shower before shaving.

What Aftershave Lotion for What Skin Type?

Having smooth and healthy skin after shaving also depends on the choice of post-shave products. It's important to choose the treatment according to your skin type:

• For sensitive skin: use alum stone. After shaving, apply the stone to the shaved skin to soothe, especially in areas with visible cuts.
• For dry skin: use an aftershave balm as it soothes and moisturizes the skin.
• An alcohol-free aftershave lotion is the trick for oily skin; it will tone the skin.
• For normal skin, classic aftershave balm and lotion will be suitable.

In all cases, I recommend using a good moisturizer in the morning and at night to soothe the skin and allow hair to grow properly without irritating the skin.

Why Opt for Natural Products?

The skin needs immediate repair after shaving. That's why the use of organic products is recommended. They have the power to soothe the skin and prevent any irritation. Organic care is recommended for sensitive skin after shaving. A healing and soothing product made from aloe vera, vegetable oil, or calendula is ideal. It's also possible to make your aftershave lotion. Today, there are many recipes prepared with 100% natural products, such as those with chamomile and organic apple cider vinegar.
