In addition to red bumps and ingrown hairs, itching is a common problem among shaving women. Does it bother you too? Then, first of all, you want to reassure. If you suffer from itching after shaving, there is nothing wrong with your skin at all. That one actually just does what it should do.

Your skin reacts to the stress of shaving and this causes all sorts of unwanted side effects such as itching, redness and burning. Not the result we women want, so we need to give our skin and nature a hand.

And that is exactly what YIONN does. In this blog article, I explain how to get rid of itching after shaving in 5 steps.

Follow these 5 steps for an itch-free shave

Of course, the fact that itching is a natural reaction of your skin does not mean that we should therefore be content with it. Fortunately not, imagine. Itching is heartbreaking and can ruin your daily enjoyment considerably. So follow the 5 steps below and get rid of itching after shaving for good.

Step 1: Cleanse your skin with the Kjarr scrub and exfoliate in one

The cleaner your skin, the less likely it is to be irritated after shaving. That’s why I recommend exfoliating and exfoliating your skin regularly. This removes dead skin cells, dirt, soap scum, fungi and bacteria. The result is a well-cleansed skin that also feels super soft.

For exfoliating and exfoliating your skin, I developed YIONN Kjarr. This scrub and exfoliant in one has a base of shea butter and is enriched with sunflower extract, among other ingredients. Use it 2-3 times a week for silky smooth results.

Step 2: Protect your skin with a shaving cream

By properly protecting your skin while shaving, you reduce the chances of itching after shaving. A shaving cream creates a thin protective layer that reduces the risk of cuts, but also nourishes and cares for the skin.

To best protect your skin while shaving, I developed the YIONN cream shaves. A line of transparent, hypoallergenic shaving creams suitable for sensitive skin: Rósir, Mandarin, Án, Summer Fruits and Winter Glow.

Step 3: Shave with the YIONN single-blade razor

Are you already aware of how your razor affects the shaving result? Possibly not. If you shave with a multi-blade razor then I recommend switching to a single-blade razor.

A single-blade razor is kinder to your skin. It is less likely to cause itching and irritation, as well as ingrown hairs. This is because the hairs are neatly cut rather than “ripped off. This allows the hair to grow out of the skin more easily. The YIONN razor is a stylish single-blade razor for women. You use the razor in combination with separate blades, the sharpness of which you can choose. Buy the razor directly online.

Step 4: Soothe your skin with the Náinn aftershave balm

After shaving, your skin needs care. Shaving damages your skin. You can’t see it, but your skin has suffered tiny wounds (and maybe accidentally some real cuts).

Therefore, it is important to let your skin recover. You do this with the help of an aftershave balm. The Náinn aftershave balm soothes and conditions your skin after shaving. The balm contains vitamin E to build your skin’s defenses and mint oil and aloe vera for optimal recovery.

Step 5: Prevent red bumps with the Raka treatment lotion

If you suffer from not only itching but also red bumps and ingrown hairs after shaving, I recommend you start using the YIONN Raka treatment lotion daily in addition to the above steps.

This lotion naturally evens out the skin, making red bumps disappear. At the same time, the lotion removes dead skin cells, quiets itching and helps the skin recover. Raka is a natural treatment lotion based on rose water. It includes camphor oil and willow bark extract for deep skin cleansing. The lotion is indispensable if you are struggling with red bumps. You apply it daily for the first 3 weeks and then as needed.
