If you suffer from spots, you may think that shaving is the worst thing you could do to your face, but it’s actually quite a good way of exfoliating your face and may help prevent the formation of spots.  Just don’t shave over raised spots.

How to get the perfect shave

• Begin removing dirt and oil by washing your face with OXY Daily Face Wash or OXY Maximum Face Scrub.
• Rinse your face with warm water and apply a shave gel while your skin is still wet.  This will help soften the hairs, so you don’t need to press so hard
• Always use a sharp blade so you don’t have to push the blade into your skin
• Shave with smooth strokes (heavy pressure can damage inflamed skin) in the same direction as your hair grows.  Rinse the blade after each stroke
• Leave the tricky bits around your mouth and chin until the end giving the hair longer to soften
• Take care when shaving around raised spots
• Rinse your face with warm water then splash with cold water to help close the pores
• Finally, use a shave balm to calm and hydrate the skin
