Guys (and maybe ladies too), I have some good
news about shaving.
You have probably experienced some of the hassles and problems
of this chore and are familiar with its inherent potential
for being very annoying.
You may be frustrated with razor burn and dry skin after
struggling with your daily shaving routine.
You can bet I tried all kinds of different razors, shaving
cream and even some aftershaves to see what I could do about
this problem. |
You want to know what I found after a lot of experimenting and
trying different things? You probably have a neat handy little item
that is common household fare and may be found in your kitchen.
It's Olive Oil. You got it, olive oil! The benefits to using olive
oil for shaving are huge. It is such a natural lubricant that the
right kind of razor will slide right across your face giving you
smooth and soft skin and still getting the job of cutting the growth
from your face. And the best part is that your skin will actually
start to look younger after using olive oil to shave with over the
long term.
Therefore, do not
forget to apply some olive oil to your forehead when you shave
too.
The reason is that the rest of your face will become younger
looking and you want your forehead to keep up.
In retrospect, I remember reading about a famous Hollywood
actress that mentioned that olive oil was her secret to having
great skin. You can bet that others are using olive oil to
shave with too.
I did a search right before deciding to share this information
with you and sure enough there are other people out there
that shave with olive oil.

One nice thing about it is that you don't have to use high quality
olive oil. You can buy the inexpensive low grade olive oil that
doesn't taste very good from your local supermarket to shave with.
A bottle will last a really long time. You can kiss your shaving
cream goodbye. You can also leave out aftershave if you so choose.
Your skin should feel great without it. If your experience is similar
to mine, you may have found that it is difficult to shave in the
grooves of your neck and face, particularly under the jaw bone with
typical razors. Even with olive oil you can still easily cut your
face if you make the wrong movement. You might find that that Gillette's
Mach 3 and olive oil are the perfect combination.
The Mach 3 has a nice swivel head with a great lubricating strip.
This allows for the flexibility to really get into the nooks and
crannies when used in combination with the olive oil. You will be
able to get in there with a lot less fear of cutting yourself. It's
not impossible, but the Mach 3 does make it a lot harder to cut
the skin of your face.
