Shaving essentials for a close, comfortable shave

A great shave is about more than the razor. The right preparation softens stubble and protects skin, a quality shaving cream or gel helps the blade glide, and a soothing aftershave calms the skin afterwards. Done well, shaving leaves skin smooth and comfortable rather than irritated. This collection brings together everything from pre-shave oils and classic Italian shaving creams to razors, blades and luxurious aftershave balms.

Your shaving kit

• Pre-shave oil or cream: softens hair and adds a protective layer.
• Shaving cream, gel or foam: helps the razor glide and reduces friction.
• Razors and blades: from multi-blade cartridges to traditional safety razors.
• Shaving brush: builds a rich lather and lifts hairs.
• Aftershave balm or lotion: soothes, hydrates and refreshes.

Step-by-step shave

1. Shave after a warm shower or apply a warm towel to soften stubble.
2. Apply pre-shave oil, then lather up with cream or gel.
3. Shave with the grain using light strokes, rinsing the blade often.
4. Rinse with cool water and pat dry.
5. Finish with a soothing aftershave balm.

Preventing irritation

Replace blades regularly, avoid pressing too hard and exfoliate a few times a week to help prevent ingrown hairs. Alcohol-free balms are best for sensitive skin.

Frequently asked questions

Should I shave with or against the grain?

With the grain is gentler. Shaving against it gives a closer shave but raises the risk of irritation.

Balm or lotion after shaving?

Balms are richer and calming, ideal for dry or sensitive skin; lotions feel fresher and lighter.
