Hello. This is my first post on the forum and I am hoping someone can help me regarding my shaving problem.
As Ive got older my skin has gradually become more sensitive when shaving. I have tried numerous electric shavers (rotary and foil) and they all irritate my skin to varying degrees. I get a slightly better shave with sensitive foam and sensitive razor but I get a lot of red shaving rash around my throat. With both shaving options I find I get ingrowing hairs and often a spot or boil appears.
I have seen doctors about my skin and after trying various creams and tablets - none of which had any effect, I gave up on this method.
I hate not shaving as my other problem is that I tend to have quite a feminine side which I prefer. Sorry if that makes me sound strange but if I wear a feminine fragrance and often have slightly feminine eyebrows then an unshaven spotty/lumpy skin doesn't quite mix.
Can anyone on here help me please?
Many thanks in advance.
