Check labels carefully and try fragrance-free or products made specifically for sensitive skin.These products often miss out on the most common allergens.

Avoid irritants

While you may not be allergic to certain ingredients, it can interfere with your skin, and reactions to skin allergies are similar.There are other factors that can cause irritation.

Too much peeling.The shaving itself will fall off.Acne or anti-aging products that contain strong exfoliants (such as glycolic acid or salicylic acid) or pre-shave scrubs may combine too much with shaving.

The splinter sticks to your razor.The dead skin cells and the remaining product stick to the razor.Shaving leaves the skin more susceptible to bacteria and is sure to irritate the skin, often resulting in redness, itching and acne.

Be sure to wash the razor thoroughly, rubbing it with alcohol or using a product like Teneo to clean the razor for you.
