Thread: post shaving for sensitive skin

I have found that aftershaves and moisturisers burn my skin post shave, due to the fact I have extremely sensitive skin. My first straight razor arrives soon, so it may be because I don't shave with one yet, but I was wondering if anyone else has this problem, or knows of products that won't burn?

Join the crowd of reactionary faces. Try Nivea Sensitive After Shave Balm. Works every time. Relatively cheap in the states (almost always a coupon for $2 off in the Sunday paper). Should be generally available in England since it is a German company.

Will get that as soon as possible then, thank you very much

You're welcome. Happy to provide any info where possible. Any other questions just ask.

Where in England are you?

I have somewhat sensitive skin and have trouble with highly fragranced balms. A couple of options are Witch Hazel astringents or toners like Thayer's.
I am also a fan of Nivea balm. However, Trumper's skin food is the balm that actually soothes my skin the best.

The south west, down in Devon. Mostly farmland but Dartmoor and Woodbury common are very good for camping!
