How do razor bumps occur?

Razor bumps are small inflammations caused by bacteria. These get under the skin during shaving through tiny skin injuries, especially when the blade of your razor is dull or not clean. Regularlysharpening the razor also reduces the risk of razor bumps.

Razor bumps can also be caused by small ingrown hairs or overly aggressive post-shaving care, such as synthetic fabrics or fragrances. Therefore, we also use our high-quality beard oil, which contains only a few, exclusively natural ingredients.

    Preventing Razor Bumps - Our 3-Step Guide

    Knowing how razor bumps occur can help you avoid them. Here are a few tips:

    1. Prepare Your Skin for Shaving

    Don't just attack your skin with the razor; prepare it first. Clean it before shaving and make skin and hair more supple by soaking them with a wet cloth. This cleanses the skin and removes inflammation-promoting germs before shaving, just like in the barbershop. Get the right beard products now.

    2. Shave Properly and Avoid Razor Bumps

    Shaving without bumps and redness works best if you follow these steps of wet shaving:

    • Lather skin and hair with shaving soap - or foam well and let it sit. This swells the hair and makes it softer. The razor rubs less against the skin.

    • Shave in the direction of hair growth - this way the blade does not scrape directly on the skin but glides more gently.

    • Always use a sharp blade - dull blades injure the skin and cause redness and bumps. We recommend our razor with 10 replacement blades.

    • Work hygienically: the razor blade should be rinsed and cleaned with water after each shave. Replaceable blades should be changed regularly. How often razor blades should be changed depends on various factors. If you cut corners here, you will see the result in the mirror.

    Sensitive skin should not be shaved daily but given time to recover.

    3. After Shaving

    Post-shave care also plays a crucial role in whether your result will be bumpy or not. Consider the following:

    • Rinse the skin with cold water after shaving. It removes remaining small hairs and closes the pores.

    • Use a clean towel for drying and avoid rubbing, instead pat gently. Do you know our shaving towel?

    • Use an aftershave balm that does not contain synthetic additives but contains nourishing ingredients. Our beard oil with valuable pure oils.

    What to do against razor bumps? The 7 Best Home Remedies

    What helps against razor bumps? If the damage is already done or your face is burning, oozing, and itching, you should know what helps against razor bumps. We have a few home remedies in store for how you can get rid of razor bumps:

    • Important: Never try to pop pimples! This will only inflame them further.

    • Rinse with clear, cold water. This soothes and cleans the skin. Alternatively, place a clean, cold towel on the burning spot for a few minutes.

    • Care for the skin: Baby powder is a classic among home remedies. It should contain zinc oxide or you can use a zinc-containing wound ointment directly.

    • Honey has proven effective: apply it to the affected skin areas and let it sit for a few minutes; honey is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial.

    • St. John's Wort oil: it soothes the skin and additionally nourishes it. Simply dab it gently with a cotton ball.

    • Cooling compresses: For razor bumps, a cooling compress is a real blessing. All you need to relieve the pain is a towel soaked in cold water and 5 minutes of your time.

    • Aloe Vera Gel: Aloe Vera soothes irritated skin and has anti-inflammatory properties. It’s especially pleasant to put the gel in the refrigerator for a while before use.
