Shaving for Men

The majority of men treat shaving as a chore but there are a few easy tips you can take to make the daily shaving routine a more skin friendly-experience .

Whilst quick, electric shavers always feel harsh on the skin and have a tendency to pull facial hair. If you must use an electric shaver, also use a pre-shave lotion to soften the hair first. However a wet shave is by far the best way to get the closest shave possible that will leave your skin feeling soft and gentle.

KJ Beckett offer a wide range of shaving products to ensure you get that close shave, be it wet shaving or electric shaving. Likewise we offer pre and post shave products to make sure everyman gets that perfect shave. Whatever your budget you will find the best shaving buys available worldwide.

Pre-shave

Pre-shave treatments assist in swelling facial hair follicles and soften skin. This makes for a much smoother, easier shaving experience with fewer nicks, cuts and much less soreness.

Shaving Oils

Care should be taken not to confuse shaving oils with pre-shave oils. Pre-shave oils act as a layer between the face and shaving cream or gel. When a man uses shaving oil, they don’t use anything else.

It is sometimes claimed that whereas shaving gel or foam will cause nicks and burns, shaving oil never do this. A few drops cover the man’s entire face, so even a small container will last a long time. Because of this, shaving oil is an excellent product to buy in order to travel with.

Shaving Creams

Shaving cream can be applied to the face with fingertips or a shaving brush. It is used to create plentiful, lubricating foam that softens and moisturises the man’s skin. This allows for greater slide across the man’s face and therefore facilitates shaving in a soft and cut free manner.

Shaving Soaps

Shaving soap is one of the most traditional products for shaving. Choose from a range of moisturising shaving soaps that create a rich, cream-like lather. Shaving soap requires the use of a shaving brush to be applied to the face. Likewise a shaving soap bowl or mug is required.

Shaving soaps can also be purchased range of fragrances, which are often complemented with an aftershave or cologne of the same fragrance.

Shaving Gels

Shaving gel is relatively recent shaving product which is dispensed as a gel then rubbed on the face to create a lather.

Shaving gel calms and soothes the man’s skin. Providing extra lubrication, shaving gel allows for a close shave and also softens, smoothes and hydrates the skin. As with shaving soap and cream, use shaving gel with piping hot water and a new razorblade for an improved shave.

Post-shave

KJ Beckett offers a range of products that combat shaving rash and calm irritated skin. Use post-shave products to reduce sore skin but also carefully select other products to enhance the pre-shave and shaving stages of your daily grooming routine. Essentially be proactive in reducing soreness prior and during your shave, not just after it when the damage to your skin is already done.

Aftershave Balms

Immediately after shaving, apply a healing aftershave balm or cream to soothe, calm and heal your skin. An aftershave balm will reduce redness, stinging and burn associated with shaving.
