Men's Grooming: A Great Shave That's Affordable

shaving-man.jpg.jpegWith the Art of Shaving opening four new stores across the United States, and one opening soon in Schaumburg, Illinois, it seems appropriate to weigh some of the best shaving products on the market. The Art of Shaving is known for their high-end, luxurious shaving products, including razors and various shaving products, though in times like these it may seem excessive to splurge on products like these. And while we love luxe shaving products, let's consider some alternatives as well.

While the Art of Shaving’s $120 5 Blade Razor is great if you have the extra cash laying around, the best part is that it uses Fusion by Gillette blades, which are available at your local drugstore! Instead of shelling out hundreds for your razor, try Gillette’s Fusion razors, or the new Fusion Gamer, which includes a Precision Trimmer for harder to reach spots.

If you’re anything like me, you might have extremely sensitive skin. I find myself breaking out whenever I use intense shaving creams. The Art of Shaving makes a great, signature shaving cream that is unscented and prevents skin irritation. If you aren’t in the market for high-end shaving cream, try Aveeno’s shave gel, which is great for sensitive skin. Or, for the more “green” crowd, use Tom’s of Maine’s Natural Conditioning Shave Cream, which uses no animal ingredients, mineral oil, preservatives, alcohol or artificial dyes. Best of all, the cream comes in great scents like mint and calendula, and conditions the skin while shaving, with jojoba and vitamin E.

For a fresher face this spring, shave that winter beard and try some of these great products! After shaving, try a signature-scented aftershave of your choosing. Instead of using your classic cologne, try your favorite brands scented aftershave, so not only will you look great, but smell great too! What are some of your favorite shaving products?

I agree it is very important to make sure you have all the right stuff before you start shaving.
I recommend people have everything you mention above, otherwise they won't get the closest cut they can!

Good work
Steven
