Aftershave
How do you use aftershave?
Aftershave, which literally means “after shaving”, is usually applied immediately after shaving. It not only helps close the pores and disinfect the skin, but also prevents skin irritation and infections. Aftershave can also be used as a pleasantly scented product, even if you have not shaved. Its main purpose, however, is to care for your skin after shaving and protect it from possible inflammation.
There is also something called a pre shave, which is applied before shaving to prepare the skin. It opens the pores and allows the razor to glide more smoothly, reducing resistance while shaving.
Aftershave for men
At Pomade Online you will find a wide selection of aftershaves for men, including the popular Proraso aftershave from Italy. The green Proraso variant is highly recommended. This aftershave disinfects the skin, refreshes it, and leaves your face or neck smelling great. Proraso also offers a Sandalwood variant, ideal for men with dense beard growth. For the ultimate shaving experience, use a pre shave cream or pre shave oil beforehand.
Applying aftershave: here’s how!
To apply aftershave correctly, start with a thorough shave. Then remove any remaining shaving gel or oil from your face and gently pat your skin dry. Do not rub, as this may irritate the skin. Pour a small amount of aftershave into your palm and distribute it evenly between both hands. Gently pat the aftershave onto your face and try to minimize rubbing. The more you rub, the faster the skin can become irritated.
Already dealing with irritated skin? Choose an aftershave balm such as the Proraso Sensitive White, specially developed for sensitive skin and known for its soothing effect.
