What shaving cream should I switch to?

I don't shave that often but when i do, i get zits, or bumps on my throat, near the adams apple area on one side. Its not TOO bad, but i am using Barbosal sensitive cream. Does anyone get this also? Anyone know any treatment or what cream i should switch to?

my buddy has the same problem, it was recommended to use a gillette venus instead of his mach 3 because i guess he had sensitive skin. but i don't think he could shave as well because the venus is wider, i dunno. thats my story.

Get a gel rather than a foam. Ones for sensitive skin or Aloe vera. Also, make sure you shower after you shave and then use a moisturiser. Any cheap shit one will do.

Sheesh... dont you watch queer eye?

This is strange. Another user, who happens to have the same name as you, made a thread about this too.

as i said before, exfoliate after you shave.. i doubt shaving cream has anything to do with it. you're probably just getting ingrown hairs so exfoliating will take care of that

You don't need to shave. If your job has a problem with it tell them you are muslim and it is against your relgion. If they still have a problem then blow yourself up, and try to take some of them with you.

use aveeno for sensitive skin and exfoliate regularly

I just use Barbasol sensitive skin w/aloe, and then after shaving I put on Jason brand aloe vera gel (98%) which moisturizes and prevents it from getting irritated.

+1

and change your razor frequently... dull razors are no good for your skin

gillette makes this gel, it's godlike, your skin is so soft after using it... and yea, use a new razor and shave with the hairs not against, and rinse the razor often, tap it against the sink to get out little hairs that are still stuck in it, and use short strokes (lol) not long continuous ones
