How to use a safety razor for a safe, smooth shave?

1. Prepare Your Skin

Softening your skin and hair before shaving is key. Take a warm bath or shower to open up pores and soften hair follicles, making it easier for the hair to be shaved off. Use this time to exfoliate with a gentle, Eco-friendly scrub to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs. This prep work makes a big difference in the smoothness of your shave.

2.Use a natural shaving cream
Say goodbye to chemical-laden shaving foams and gels. Opt for natural, vegan shaving creams that are good for your skin and the planet. Look for products with ingredients like aloe vera, coconut oil, and shea butter that moisturize and protect your skin, creating a protective barrier between the razor and your skin. These natural wonder ingredients can help your razor glide smoothly, reducing the risk of nicks and cuts.

3. Shave the right way
Here's how to do it right: Always shave in the direction of hair growth to minimize irritation. This may mean shaving down on most parts of your skin, but pay attention to your body's patterns. Tighten your skin and shave at a 30- to 45-degree angle with gentle, even strokes; don't apply too much pressure. If you want to remove more beard stubble, replenish the shaving foam on the skin and shave again against the direction of hair growth. Rinse your razor often to remove hair and product buildup and ensure a clean shave every time. And remember, don't rush - it's not a race!

4. Rinse and Moisturize
After shaving, rinse your skin with cool water to close pores, then gently pat your skin dry with a soft towel. Now is the time to lock in moisture. Use a vegan, natural moisturizer or body oil to hydrate the skin, soothe any irritation, and give your skin that irresistible glow.
