My boyfriend has really dry skin because of shaving. He uses some kind of Gillette [spelling mistake??] soothing balm after but it doesnt seem to be working too well. Are they any good but inexpensive products for this?

Aww poor thing. Oh and yes you spelled it right. I would try some dove facial soap. This worked really well on my boyfriend. Oh and believe it or not, with really dry skin, try mayonaise. It works wonders. You have to leave it on your face for at least 15 minutes. Hope this helps

Oh thankyou. Also he gets like a rash kind of thing would it help that or is that something different? I think that its because his razors were a bit old and hes bought some more so i reckon it will sort it but he insisted i asked so there you go..

Exfoliate the skin.
Shave after showering.
Using shaving cream.
Use a sharp blade.
Shave against the grain.

Hmm..

He seems to have really dry skin that gets worse after shaving. What he needs is an intensifying moisturizer. Try NeoCutis Journee Bio-restorative Day Cream. It works wonderfully on dry skin and makes it smooth and moisturized.

Good luck!

I tend to use a shaving oil or just wet shave, a good razer is a must either a cutthroat that is sharpened or something like a mach3 with vibrate

Dry skin can often be caused by air conditioning, and really any moisturiser can help out here, just find him something that both you and he likes the smell of and works well with his skin.
