Sensitive skin can be difficult to treat…it might seem like everything you apply to your skin causes a worse reaction. Shaving can easily damage your skin, especially if you have to shave every day. However, instead of suffering through the burning, you can manage the inflammation and irritation naturally.
Lavender essential oil (100 percent pure therapeutic grade) is one of the few oils that can be safely applied directly to the skin, and it’s effective at calming redness and inflammation. Applying lavender oil on your legs or face after you shave can reduce your razor bumps and burning sensation. Using it overnight with vitamin E cream can help heal cuts and reduce razor burn more effectively.
