About this deal

Now that you know the ins and outs of exfoliating dry and sensitive skin, the next step to keep your skin feeling and looking great is to apply after shave balms. As previously mentioned, exfoliating helps skincare products penetrate your skin further. But this doesn’t just apply to your face! Ah, ingrown hairs. Most everyone has experienced them and despised it. The pesky little bumps typically show up on your legs after you shave or tweeze aggressively, forming hairs that grow inside your (now inflamed) skin rather than out of it. “When a hair becomes trapped in the skin, that can lead to inflammation, pustules, or inflamed cysts,” says dermatologist Dr. Caroline Robinson, MD. One of the most common questions about exfoliating is whether one should shave or exfoliate first. The short answer is you should always exfoliate before shaving.

The best face exfoliators for dry skin are gentle and mild and designed to be used on your face.

This is not recommended – scrubbing too aggressively may cause irritation, redness and even soreness. To exfoliate sensitive skin that’s oily or blemish-prone, start exfoliating once a week with a scrub and introduce chemical exfoliators alongside the scrubs slowly, gradually using them up to three times a week alternating between the two products.

By using exfoliators, you can help remove flaky, dry or even old suntan, leaving you with smooth and even skin. Stimulates Cell Renewal But why use an exfoliator in the first place? Whilst your skin naturally sheds dead skin cells roughly every month, sometimes it doesn’t shed completely, leaving you with flaky dry patches that make your skin look dull. That’s where exfoliators come to the rescue!But compared to the skin on your body, your face is naturally more sensitive. As such, you should only use exfoliators designed to be used on the face.

It can be used daily in between shaves to leave your skin feeling better hydrated as well as after shaving pubic hair.

That's called a furuncle,” says dermatologist Dr. Ellen Marmur, MD. “The most severe is when a cluster of infected ingrown hairs connect under the skin, which is called a carbuncle.” The serum has been developed to support the skin's natural renewal by reducing the level of dead skin cells. This supports the natural renewal process of the skin's surface and can also help to lessen the prevalence of ingrown hairs following pubic shaving.
