ANYTHING to rid these razor burn bumps is worth trying..Health Question & Answer

An aftershave is not going to help with preventing bumps and cleaning your pores..

If you use a razor blade, wash your face before you shave.. Use a special facial soap to wash your face.. There are tons of them on the market for men.. also change your blade after 6-7 shaves.. I use a special facial cream (unscented with sunscreen protection) after shaving followed with a lightweight moisturizer.. You can find these in any store..

If you use an electric razor, use a pre-shave liquid on your face like William's Electric Shave.. It raises the hairs on your face and you get a closer shave.. also you don't have to shave as long which also helps reduce bumps.. Follow up as described above..

The key is use the special soap for your face every day followed with the facial cream (the one with the sunscreen protection) and a lightweight moisturizer.. It seems like a lot but it makes a huge difference in the cleanliness of your face and it will help eliminate the shaving bumps.. All these creams and soaps are hypo-allergenic which is one of the main reason you are having so many bumps..Health Question & Answer

Tea tree oil is great stuff..
I had a problem with one of my feet, because
I wear work boots my feet had a problem with
broken skin.. After every shower I use Witch hazel
to clean the sore then I put tea tree oil on and let
it soak in.. After two weeks my foot sores are
100% healed.. I have not tried it on my face but
I can't see any reason why you can't & I can only
see it being a good thing.. Just don't get in in your
eye's, keep it about an inch away from your eye's
if you can..

take care..Health Question & Answer
