Shaving, it's an important and crucial part of any mans grooming routine, it's something that has become apart of my routine for nearly ten years now. When I shave my skin can get quite sensitive and I know that a lot of men I have spoken to in the past have the same issue so it's important to incorporate products into your routine that will help to prep the skin and also take care of it after you shave.

Before you do anything it's important that you Cleanse your face to make sure any oils and dirt have been removed from the surface, cleansing will also help to clean out your pores making way for a cleaner and smoother shave.

This cleanser leaves the skin feeling really fresh and thoroughly cleansed, it contains Menthol which has a really refreshing fragrance that helps to wake the skin up and prepare it for shaving. I actually use this cleanser as a shaving gel if I am in a hurry.

After you shave it's important to take care of your skin by applying an After Shave Balm which will help to hydrate the skin and leave it feeling comfortable.

This balm instantly absorbed into my skin and left my skin hydrated and nourished.

After you let the aftershave balm sink in and on a daily basis it's crucial that you moisturise your skin, even if you have oilier skin it will help to hydrate but also control oil production as well. Moisturising daily will help keep the skin hydrated, plump and nourished this means that when you shave the razor has a smoother surface to adhere to making less way for any irritation to occur.
