Skincare & Shaving Solutions for Razor Burn

Those unsightly raised red bumps and skin irritations can lead to ingrown hairs and leave skin looking less than lovely. Here are a few easy tips to keep skin soft — and safe — before and after shaving, from Skincare-News.com’s latest article, “Rid Yourself of Razor Burn.”

Shaving 101

When it comes to shaving, having the right supplies as well as the proper technique can make — or break out — skin. Here’s are tips to prevent razor burn.

• Enhance the blade. Many disposable razors come with aloe strips above the blades to alleviate the burn.

• Always use water. Dry shaving is the quickest way to skin irritation. Instead, try shaving in the shower. The warm water will open up pores, allowing for easier hair removal.

• Be a bedtime shaver. Shaving before bed gives skin a chance to recuperate. If the morning is the only option, give skin 20 minutes to breathe before getting dressed.

How to heal the burn

If the rash and red bumps have reared their ugly head, here are some tips to help alleviate the pain and get skin back to its natural glow.

• Treat it to beat it. There are many products on the market to help soothe the redness and irritation associated with razor burn and bumps. For mild cases, try applying aloe vera. Another option is to use hydrocortisone cream. But only use hydrocortisone for major irritation, because regular use can thin the skin.

• Ask the doctor. Sometimes what people think is razor burn is actually a more serious skin sensitivity or rash. If razor burn is persistent, don’t hesitate to see a family physician or dermatologist.
