I'm a guy who needs some shaving advice

[MetzFan]

I normally use the Aveeno gel with a Sensor Excel blade to shave my face, but I occasionally get some clogged pores.

I was recently looking at my Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera gel and it said on the bottle that it could be used as a shave gel.

Have any guys here ever used this on their face to shave? Or have any girls used it to shave their legs?

Any results or experiences would be appreciated.

Thanks.

are they clogged pores or ingrown hairs?

i guess you can start off with exfoliating before and after and then exfoliate when you wash your face.

not sure of products though. i'm not a skincare expert. lol

ermm do u get clogged pores with any shaving foam? u cud try exfoliating and using a shaving balm after you've shaved, aloe vera gel is good for using after removing hair as it does help close the pores

Thanks to all who replied!

Nice to meet you Rosie!

I have another question about exfoliation, but I'll start a new thread for that.
