Some guys are born with skin of steel; others you can’t so much as breathe on without causing a blemish to bloom. Blame it on your parents, the weather or just plain bad luck; having sensitive skin is no fun when you’re forced to lop off your beard five days a week. But all it takes is some preshave and postshave rituals to relieve even the most delicate dermal layers. A beard-softening oil, face wash or exfoliating scrub will help prepare the beard for battle. An aftershave balm in the form of a soothing cream moisturizer is the ultimate way to prevent agains.
