By Minq Team

Razor burn can be very irritating. Some of the best ways to avoid getting are to prevent it. Use these 12 easy tips to get rid of razor burn for good.

Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera is good for many things, including keeping you from getting razor burn. To use, simply put it on your legs after you shave. It’s not irritating and is inexpensive.

Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple cider vinegar isn’t just for recipes. It is a quick go to if you need to prevent razor burn. To use, pour a small amount on a washcloth and rub it over your skin.

Toners Or Creams With Salicylic Acid

A toner or cream with salicylic acid is an easy way to prevent razor burn. All you have to do is rub it on your legs just as you would lotion. After applying it, wait a few minutes for it to dry before you get dressed.

Moisturizing Shaving Cream

Instead of using soap to shave, use a moisturizing shaving cream. It will help prevent razor burn and will make shaving easier. You will be left with smooth, bump free legs.

Female Aftershave

Female aftershave will not only help you prevent razor burn, but it will also make your skin feel tingly. To apply simply pour a little bit on your hands and rub it into your skin. It should absorb fairly quickly.

Witch Hazel

Witch hazel is used for a lot of things, including preventing razor burn. To use, pour about a capful on a cotton ball and rub it over the area that you shaved. The smell may seem unpleasant at first, but it doesn’t last long and you will eventually get used to it.

Honey

Believe it or not honey can keep you from getting razor burn. To use, put honey on any area of your skin that you are prone to get razor burn. Leave it on for 5 minutes and then rinse it off.

Exfoliating

Exfoliating involves removing dead cells. By exfoliated before shaving you can prevent razor burn and get a smoother shave. There are a wide variety of devices to exfoliate your skin including loofahs and gloves.

Tea Tree Oil

Tea tree oil has a rather interesting scent, but many people use it because it has a lot of healing properties. To prevent razor burn, put it onto your skin directly after shaving. After a few minutes if you find that the odor is still lingering you can rinse it off as most of it will be absorbed into your skin by this time.

Hot And Cold Compresses

Hot and cold compresses are great for those that want to prevent razor burn. All you need to do is to apply the compress on your skin for about 5 minutes. Remove it and repeat the process on the other parts of your skin that you shaved.

Avoid Products With Alcohol

Alcohol can be very irritating to your skin and can cause razor burn. If you find yourself left with irritated legs after shaving, check the product that you are shaving with to see if there’s any alcohol in it. If there is, switch to something that has milder ingredients.

Don’t Shave An Irritated Area For A While

This may seem like a no brainer, but you shouldn’t shave an area that is irritated until it has fully healed. Many people tend to get razor burn because they keep shaving over an area that is irritated. Instead, wait until the area no longer has any irritation before you shave it again.
