Shaving Gel

Eventually, we all have to deal with it: the shaving of your stubble. Some use a beard trimmer, while others use a razor. But it is just as important as a good grooming product to make your shave more comfortable.

Shaving Gel has many benefits and will certainly take care of your skin. Always choose a shaving gel with ingredients that are gentle on your (sensitive) skin. This way, you are assured of a nice, soft, and neat result. After the shaving, if you have a beard, you can also use a beard oil, beard balm, beard butter, beard brush, and beard shampoo to care for your skin and beard.

Is shaving gel necessary?

If you want to shaving safely, you need a product to make your face comfortably smooth. A transparent shaving gel ensures that you can glide the blade smoothly over your face without getting cuts or irritations. Additionally, you will notice that a shaving gel also cares for and hydrates your skin.

So, is a shaving gel necessary? For a good shaving result, yes. Unless you like walking around with razor burn or band-aids on your face. In that case, alum is your best friend for stopping bleeding. But that seems unlikely to us.

How does shaving gel work?

A nice shaving gel for men might also remind you of shaving foam or shaving cream from a shaving set. You apply it to your face in the same way. However, there are some differences between these products.

Shaving Foam offers less protection for your skin and beard hairs because it contains fewer lubricating oils and fats. As a result, this foam variant is a bit cheaper. Shaving Soap with a synthetic shaving brush, on the other hand, provides extra grooming during the shaving and also a thick, creamy foam.

The fine structure of a shaving gel provides good protection for your skin during wet shaving. Especially when you first use a shaving towel and preshave. If you are less meticulous and do not experience irritation, then shaving foam might also work perfectly for you, of course. But: a shaving gel feels fresher and cooler than the foam variant. We men find this invigorating experience particularly pleasant, contributing to a comfortable shaving experience.

You can easily apply shaving gel for sensitive skin to your wet face. Then, with a good safety razor, you can directly follow the contours of your face.

What different types of shaving gel are there?

Of course, there are different types of brands shaving gel, but we can roughly divide them into 2 types. You have transparent and non-transparent shaving gel for the shaving. If you use transparent shaving gel, you can clearly see where you are during the shaving. That is one of the great advantages of transparent shaving gel.

If you're not a fan of this, you can of course choose to try the non-transparent shaving gel. Furthermore, there is mainly a difference in skin type with shaving gel, which can feel very pleasant. A good shaving gel for sensitive skin can be a bit more expensive than for normal skin. So check carefully what you need.

How should you use shaving gel?

First of all, we look at when it is best to use a shaving gel. If you quickly suffer from irritated skin, shaving gel is the right option because of the excellent protection it offers the skin.

Heavy beard growth is also a reason to choose a better shaving gel, because it provides the best coverage and covers every beard hair well. Even with oily skin, it is best to use a good shaving gel because it immediately takes care of the skin.

Furthermore, shaving gel is very easy to use. You should always make sure to work with sharp razor blades for the best result. A good shaving gel offers sufficient protection, but by using dull blades, you do not take advantage of your shaving gel. So regularly change your razor blade and store it safely in your razor case to prevent accidents.

Tip: Before you start shaving, we recommend that you first scrub your skin with a face scrub. This removes your dead skin cells and makes the razor glide more easily over your skin.
