Shaving - It's A Guy Thing
If you are 50 years old and have been shaving your face since
starting to grow a beard you have dragged a razor blade across
your face in excess of 9000 times... Yes, that much shaving and
tugging at your skin combined with the irritations, nicks and
cuts add up to significant need for skin care and repair.
Slashing on some after-shave is not going to do the trick either.
"Men's skin is quite different to that of women's" according to
Susan Siegenthaler, director of research and product development
for Wildcrafted Herbal
Products, Sydney, Australia. "The fact is, men's skin is
thicker and oilier than women's and has to put up with
considerable irritation from daily shaving".
That said, Susan insists: "that there is no need to go over
board and spend hours going through complex skin care regimes to
keep men's skin looking and feeling great. Three simple steps,
followed faithfully, can substantially improve the skin's look,
feel, health and vitality".
1. Cleansing your skin before you shave:
"First, throw out your traditional soap bar - it's too harsh,
dries out your skin and is full of synthetic chemicals which do
nothing positive for your skin. Use warm water to wash your face
and instead of using soap bars, choose a gentle cleansing gel to
remove stale oils and dirt from the skin that doesn't remove the
natural protective acid mantle", Susan suggests: "try a gentle
exfoliant such as the Skin
Renewal Gel from Wildcrafted Herbal Products, which contains
herbs, essential oils and other ingredients to deeply clean
pores, promote blood circulation and remove dead skin cells".
2. Shaving
Susan suggests, "shave right after you wash your face, because
the warm water
makes your stubbles soft and easier to shave.
Traditional shaving creams tend to be harsh on the skin and do
not in them selves benefit the skin. They are designed purely
for the purpose of shaving", Susan explains. "The benefits of
replacing your harsh shaving cream with a natural alternative,
like the Vitalis
ing Shaving Gel developed for Wildcrafted Herbal Products,
is that not only do you lubricate the skin to assist in shaving,
but you add vital nutrients and oils that are absorbed by the
skin. The oils and herbal extracts contained in our products are
designed to prevent nicks and cuts and sooth the skin preventing
shaving rash, while at the same time nourishing and hydrating
the skin".
3. Tone and Moisturise
Susan insists that: "Toning and moisturising is critical for
men. The shaving process irritates and stresses the skin and
leaves it quite vulnerable". "Toning closes the pores,
preventing loss of moisture and invasion of dirt and bacteria",
explains Susan. The formulae of our toning lotions are all
designed to re-establish the skin's normal pH and prevent
dehydration of the skin.
Finally a moisturising crème such as the Ginseng
Hydrator for Men is ideal to help repair and give back to
the skin what shaving takes out. It is a must for any man that
cares about the health of their skin.
