Shaving with Sensitive Skin – US Men’s Guide
Shaving with Sensitive Skin – Calm & Close
Sensitive doesn’t mean complicated. Choose a gentle shaving gel, take your time, and finish with After Shave Balm.
Prep Comes First
Warm water softens hair and primes skin.
Avoid alcohol-heavy pre-shaves that can dry you out.
Technique
Start with the grain; keep strokes short; don’t chase baby-smooth on flare-up days.
Recovery
Cool rinse, pat dry, balm. Skip strong fragrance while healing.
