3 Easy Steps To The Ultimate Shave Home

Here's how the shaving routine goes:

Step 1: Clean your face for a clean shave
It only makes sense that you should wash your face before shaving with a razor sharp blade, doesn't it? Exfoliating and washing your face prior to shaving will help prevent rashes and irritations of any sort. Washing your face on a daily or weekly basis will also make your skin look fresh and clean, and give it a healthy glow.

What to use: Face Scrubbing Gel offers an exclusive ball-bearing system that provides in-depth skin cleaning and scrubbing by getting to your skin's thickest sections and removing impurities and dead skin cells. Use it every time you shave, and on a weekly or daily basis to give your face a deep cleaning. I recommend you clean your face with a scrubbing gel in the morning before going to work or at night before hitting the sack.

Quick shaving tip: Your best bet is to exfoliate with a face scrubbing gel in the shower because the feeling of warm water on your face will help relax your facial muscles, but more importantly, it will open up your pores and follicles and soften the hair, preparing your face for a smooth shearing by the razor blade.

If you usually shave in the shower, then wash your face right before you apply the shaving cream; if you prefer shaving in front of the bathroom mirror, then do so immediately after you jump out of the shower, before drying off.

Step 2: Smooth on the shaving gel
You probably already guessed the second step... use a felt pen to outline what you want to shave. No, no -- it's time to apply the shaving cream. Again, remember that you should do so right after stepping out of the shower to make sure that your pores are still open and your facial hair is soft, for a clean and easy shave.

What to use: If you're like me, you probably don't know what type of skin you have. Is it dry and rough, or oily and smooth? Well guess what; it doesn't matter, because Shaving Gel is formulated for every skin and beard type.

Smooth Operator Shaving Gel turns into ultra-protective profuse foam even on slightly moistened skin. It's formulated with ginger extracts to help make even the toughest beards "stand up," while various moisturizing agents leave your skin soft (and a pleasure for a woman to feel).

Quick shaving tip: Apply Smooth Operator Shaving Gel to your face. Then, simply take long, smooth strokes and glide the razor blade along your face without applying too much pressure. Make sure to frequently run the razor head underneath water (preferably warm). Proceed until you're finished shaving your face.

Time required: It takes approximately 30 seconds to apply the shaving gel and 5 to 7 minutes to shave.

Step 3: Enjoy the refreshment
At this point your face is shaven; it's time to give your skin some lovin' with a nice moisturizing gel.

What to use: Once you've rinsed off the excess shaving cream and towel-dried your face, apply After Shave for an extra-refreshing finish, which will calm and soothe your skin with its peroxygenated corn oil. Formulated with glycerin and allantoin, it will also moisturize and protect any tiny cuts left by your razor. At this point, you will notice that your skin is as smooth as can be.

Quick shaving tip: For those of you with extra-sensitive skin, I recommend that you apply another cream to moisturize your skin, specifically one that won't clog your pores. Use non-comedogenic (non-acne causing), oil-free products such as Aquaderm, Aveeno, Cetaphil, or Complex 15. If you're not sure, just check the label.

Whether you shave every day or once a week, 10 minutes (at most) is all you need each time to do it right. Remember that for a superior shave, you'll have to use good products such as those highlighted above and if possible, try to soften your facial hair with some warm water for a smooth shearing by the razor blade. Finally, for the ultimate shave, try hitting a steam room or sauna right beforehand.
