The best moment to shave is in the morning, just after a shower and before breakfast: your hair, consisting mainly of keratin, are softer and easier to cut, and the skin of your face less fragile. Prepare your shaving foam by loading the brush with soap or shaving cream. Use of products called " shaving preparation " is twofold: it boosts hydration of the hair by removing its fat layer (sebum) and secondly, protects your skin from the aggression of the blade.
Apply the lather to your wet face in a circular motion to straighten the hair. Shave in the direction of hair growth, limiting the number of passes of the blade, to prevent irritation. If you wish to make a second pass, re-lather and shave your face, this time in the opposite direction of hair growth. Rinse your face with cool water and apply aftershave balm to soothe and rehydrate the skin.
