Do you always get razor burn? Razor burn can be painful, irritating and lower self-esteem. Follow these simple steps to get a smooth shave without the irritating bumps and burn.
You Will Need:
• Warm water
• A washcloth
• Baby oil
• Shaving cream
• A razor with multiple blades
• A towel
• Aftershave cream or lotion or aloe vera gel
• A shaving cream warmer (optional)
Step 1: Splash skin
Splash warm water on the areas that you will be shaving.
Step 2: Soak washcloth
Soak the washcloth in warm water, wring out any excess, and then add a few drops of baby oil to the center of the cloth.
Step 3: Condition skin
Condition your skin by wiping it with the prepared washcloth.
Step 4: Apply shaving cream
Apply shaving cream to your skin.
Step 5: Shave
Shave with a fresh razor blade to reduce abrasions and nicks. Use short strokes with minimal pressure, shave in the direction of hair growth, and rinse the blade between each stroke.

Rinse oil and cream from your skin using cold water and then pat dry.
Step 7: Soothe skin
Soothe your shaved skin with aftershave cream or lotion, or aloe vera gel.
