Frequently Asked Questions
What makes shaving products for sensitive skin different?
They contain soothing, non-irritating ingredients such as aloe vera, oatmeal, and chamomile, and are generally free of potentially irritating ingredients. These protect the skin, reduce razor burn, and are designed to be non-irritating to skin.
What causes skin sensitivity issues when shaving?
Skin sensitivity during shaving is usually caused by a combination of factors. Common triggers include using dull or low-quality blades, shaving too aggressively, or going against the grain of hair growth. Harsh ingredients in shaving creams, gels, or aftershaves — such as alcohol or strong fragrances — can also strip the skin’s natural oils, leaving it dry and reactive. Environmental factors like cold weather, low humidity, or sun damage may further weaken the skin barrier, making it more prone to redness, razor burn, and ingrown hairs. Choosing shaving products for sensitive skin that are gentle, hydrating, and free from harsh chemicals is the best way to prevent irritation and protect your skin.
What is the best shaving cream for sensitive skin?
Look for rich, hydrating formulas with natural moisturisers and no alcohol or harsh chemicals, such as Zingari Man's Unscented Shaving Soap. These provide excellent cushioning and help prevent post-shave redness.
How can I prevent irritation when shaving?
Always shave with a sharp, clean blade, apply a protective shaving cream or gel, and finish with a gentle, alcohol-free aftershave balm. Shaving after a warm shower also softens the hair for an easier glide.
