Clean your skin Before you start shaving, it is important to prepare your skin. Ideally, you should shave after taking a shower; the hot water opens the skin's pores and allows for a better shave. It is important to wash your face with soap (preferably neutral), as this helps eliminate bacteria and prevents your face from turning red. Therefore, if you do not shower before shaving, you can wash your face with hot water and neutral soap.
1
Prepare your skin Before you start shaving, apply oil to your face. Baby oil is very useful for this purpose. Once you come out of the shower, dry your face thoroughly and apply a couple of drops of baby oil; this will form a protective layer for your face.
2
Apply shaving cream If possible, place the shaving cream container near the shower so that it warms up with the steam from the water, making shaving easier. Apply a layer to your face and allow it to sit for 2 minutes.

Get ready for shaving Before starting, it is important to have the right razor. Look for a good razor, preferably with no more than three blades. It is important to change the cartridges regularly, as the blades lose sharpness. Shaving Shaving should be done in one direction, from the nose to the chin. Be very careful not to apply too much pressure and avoid long cuts. Clean the razor with water between each stroke. Once you have finished shaving, reapply the cream and shave in the opposite direction. After finishing, rinse your face with cold water to close the skin's pores. If possible, avoid shaving a couple of days a week to allow your skin to rest. Once you are done, clean the blades with alcohol to eliminate germs.

After shaving Immediately after shaving, dry your face thoroughly and apply an aftershave cream, preferably one that contains aloe vera.
