How to Prep, Shave, and Soothe Your Handsome Face Caulfields Counter

  • Properly preparing your face by washing with warm water and a gentle face wash can help you achieve a smoother shave.  Washing your face removes the dirt and debris that can hinder the glide of your razor.  Using a gentle face scrub twice a week will optimize the shaving experience.
  • When using shave cream, start by applying to the areas with toughest beard growth such as the chin.  This gives the cream more time to penetrate and soften the beard.
  • Nothing can hurt your face more than using a worn-out razor.  Switch out your blade(s) the moment you notice your razor becoming dull.  Signs include increased post-shave irritation/razor burn and frequent cuts.
  • Always moisturize and condition your face with an alcohol-free aftershave balm or lotion. Don’t skimp in this department – one layer is usually not enough.  Continue to apply until any sign of discomfort or irritation is gone and your face is properly moisturized.
  • If you shower after you shave, be sure to moisturize again after showering.

Product Review: Kiss My Face Cool Mint Moisture Shave

Kiss My Face Cool Mint Moisture Shave

Kiss My Face Cool Mint Moisture Shave (Note: the packaging has changed since this review was originally posted.)

Overall Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $ (under $10)
Scent: Mild peppermint.
I liked: the mildly invigorating mint scent, mostly natural ingredients, convenient size, rich texture, and good value.
I didn’t like: nothing.  Try this natural, refreshing shave cream immediately!

I’m a sucker for virtually any skin care product that has a cooling effect – this can be attributed to my days as a ten year-old splashing Aqua Velva right before heading out the door to impress my fifth grade female classmates. Sadly, the cool magic blue tonic didn’t do the trick. The girls were repelled.

As a fan of natural skin care products, I constantly find myself in the beauty section of my local Whole Foods. That is where I purchased a 4 ounce tube of Kiss My Face Cool Mint Moisture Shave hoping it would have an invigorating effect on me. I was not disappointed. The shave cream’s cool mint was refreshing, but not overpowering. The nice, rich texture allowed a smooth, comfortable shave that left me feeling awake and ready to take on the day. I highly recommend getting the 4 ounce size as you only need to use a little amount per shave. The tube’s portability is particularly useful for traveling – I even took it with me on a recent trip to Shanghai!
