Men's skin is different from women's, and needs specific care to stay healthy, hydrated and young. Therefore, in this article we are going to teach you step by step, a shaving routine that protects and cares for your skin.

Do you dare to discover it?

What is the best shaving routine for men?

To keep the skin in balance and avoid discomfort or infections, we must prepare the skin. We believe that the best shaving routine for men is made up of four steps: prepare, apply, shave and finish.

By following these steps, you can get a perfect shave, without irritating or damaging your skin. Here's an explanation:

1. Prepare

The first step is to prepare the skin and hair for shaving. To do this, it is advisable to wash your face with warm water and a mild facial cleanser, which removes dirt, excess oil and dead skin cells. This prevents pores from clogging and causing pimples or infections.

In addition, thanks to the warm water, the skin is softer and the pores are more open, the hair therefore softens slightly and this makes it less difficult for you to shave.

If you like to add an extra step or enjoy extra care, you can also exfoliate your skin once or twice a week, to remove deeper impurities and prevent ingrown hair.

 

2. Apply

The second step is to apply a shaving product, which protects the skin from the blade and makes it easier to cut the hair.

It can be a cream, a gel, a foam or a lotion, depending on each person's preferences. The important thing is that its ingredients are as natural as possible, since sliding the blade and cutting the hair, the product penetrates the skin and sneaks into the small wounds that may arise in the process. If the product you use has toxic or aggressive synthetic ingredients (such as alcohol), infections have a greater chance of happening.

It is important that the product you use for shaving has a creamy texture and does not contain alcohol, parabens, sulfates or artificial fragrances, which can dry out or irritate the skin.

 

 

If you don't have any shaving gel that suits you, you can help yourself with our RESET facial cleanser. Although it is not a shaving gel itself, it can help you slide the blade and take care of your skin at the same time.

In addition, by containing lavender water, cedar and grapefruit among its ingredients, which have moisturizing, soothing, antiseptic and antioxidant properties. They take care of the skin when shaving. Its semi-transparent and non-foamy texture allows you to see the contour of your beard and shave it with precision.

Its natural and pleasant aroma envelops you in a feeling of deep well-being and relaxes you. To use it, simply apply a thin layer to damp skin and massage gently, before using the blade.

3. Shave

The third step is to shave the hair with a clean, sharp blade that does not pull or scratch the skin. You can also trim hair, making a smaller cuts and avoiding the depth of the blade. We leave this to your liking.

It is recommended to shave in the direction of hair growth to avoid cuts, irritations and ingrown hairs.

It is advisable to avoid passing through the same area several times, so as not to damage the skin. And rinse the blade with hot water after each pass to remove hair and shaving product that accumulate on it. Thus, a closer and more uniform shave is achieved.

4. Repair

The fourth and final step is to finish the shave with a post-shave product that hydrates, heals, soothes and repairs the skin.

THE POTION, is our multifunction nourishing serum, that calms and soothes your sensitive and irritated skin after shaving, thanks to the more than 15 botanical active ingredients with a dry texture and rapid absorption found in its formula.

Among them, St. John's Wort and Cypress, which help the skin to heal and regenerate after shaving irritation, reducing wounds and disinfecting them. Sandalwood, which calms, repairs and softens the skin, and jojoba, which prevents folliculitis or, more clearly, the appearance of white pimples after shaving.

 

To finish repairing the skin and keep it healthy and hydrated, we recommend that you accompany the serum with the ALL TERRAIN anti-aging moisturizing cream.

In addition to repairing, hydrating and accelerating the healing process, you will provide an extra for your wrinkles.

Among its ingredients, it contains organic aloe vera juice that provides powerful moisturizing properties, producing a pleasant sensation of relief on the skin. Thanks to the Enzyme Lignin, it penetrates the skin up to 3 times more than water, making it especially useful for regenerating tissues and, therefore, helping it to heal faster.

In addition to it, the Rockrose, a powerful antioxidant and firming skin regenerator. This accelerates the healing process and firms the skin, helping it age better.

The moisturizer has a light and non-greasy texture, which is absorbed quickly and leaves a feeling of freshness and comfort on the skin.

To use it, you just have to apply a small amount to clean, dry skin, and spread it over your face and neck, with a gentle massage. This final step, after the serum, is key to sealing and reinforcing hydration in the skin and protecting it for a fresh, juicy and soft face.
