Shave (Continued)
Moisturize your mug
Smooth on a moisturizer or aftershave balm to
prevent your skin from drying. An electric razor is
easy on skin; still, a moisturizing routine adds a
silky finish. On the other hand, wet shaving can
leave skin vulnerable to alcohol and oil: the
former can burn; the latter clogs pores. Test any
scented lotions for mildness before slathering them
on.
- Some men like the invigorating feeling of
splashing an alcohol-based aftershave on
their faces. These products also have an
antiseptic quality that can help heal nicks and
cuts, but they also tend to dry most faces.
Most men find that balms feel better. A
less expensive, but very effective product, is aloe
vera gel. It soothes razor burn and moisturizes
your skin, and it does this without using any long,
difficult-to-pronounce chemicals. It's also
available in a non-aerosol spray.
