We borrow their button-ups and jeans (ok, fine – sometimes we keep them). Now we’re raiding their medicine cabinets too.
Keep in mind that men’s grooming products are expertly designed for skin subject to daily shaving. Tools may be important, but the secret to a perfectly effortless shave is all in the skincare. Take it from the boys: it’s their jars of pre- and post-shave products that make the job (and end result!) so much smoother. Here’s how to shave without irritation:
- CONDITION. Prep every shave with our Pre-Shave Conditioner for a smoother, more comfortable shaving experience. A calming blend of Azulene and Lavender Extract helps soothe and soften, enabling the blade to glide across skin with minimal irritation.
- PREP. Get a close shave with our classic Shaving Cream, which features a rich, non-foaming consistency to further soften hair and skin. Or, give the Peppermint Shaving Cream a go: it’s a personal favorite given its unique hydrating and cooling properties.
- TREAT. Our lightweight Protein After Shave Lotion, to be used immediately following any shaving session, features Peppermint Extract to help cool and tone for a refreshing boost all while reducing irritations. (Dry skin types can skip this step; after shave tends to have a slight alcohol content for antiseptic benefits.)
- MOISTURIZE. You can use your favorite body lotion, of course, but I much prefer applying the After Shave Moisturizer post-shave. (Regular lotions are saved for non-shaving days.) It makes a huge difference in helping to soothe sensitivities skin—especially after you’ve shaven—while keeping skin soft and well-hydrated. This moisturizer was specifically formulated to help replenish lost moisture and deliver soothing Allantoin to help calm skin and prevent irritation.
