Razor Burn/Irritation
The most common shaving problem is razor burn, actually irritant dermatitis, from blunt blades, dry shaving, shaving too fast, applying too much pressure on the razor, and going against the direction of hair growth. Prevent this problem by using a non-soap shaving lotion such as Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser and a fresh blade with each shave. Apply topical Vitamin C serum as an aftershave and sun protectant. Finish with Silk Massage Moisturizer, but for oily or acne-prone skin Oil-Less Moisturizer is best.
