You may shave every day but do you know how to do it properly? And more importantly, are you using the right products to protect your skin?
FIVE STEPS TO A GREAT SHAVE
1: Even if you’re short of time never shave dry skin – it will only increase the chances of itching and rashes.
2: Always use a shaving foam or gel rather than soap for a closer, healthier shave.
3: Don’t use hot water; instead make sure it’s lukewarm so it doesn’t irritate skin and make sure you pat dry with a soft towel.
4: Ensure you include a regular exfoliation in your routine to remove the build-up of dead skin calls and protect the skin’s natural protective barrier.
5: Finish off with products that will help close your pores and stop them getting clogged.
THREE SHAVING MUST-HAVES
SOS SHAVE OIL: Created to protect and repair against the damage caused by regular shaving, Heaven’s innovative shave oil will help improve the texture of your skin.

This means they deliver a potent shot of ingredients directly into your skin. Heaven’s SOS Shave Oil protects and repairs against shaving damage, improving texture and tone.
HOW TO USE: Adds a few drops to your shaving cream for added nourishment or use after to provide relief and repair. You can also leave it on overnight for a more intensive skin treat.
