Prevent acne when I shave my chin

[staplemaple]

Hi everyone I am trying to figure out a way to prevent myself from getting acne when I shave my chin. Everything I have searched so far has been about men but it's not helpful. I have sensitive skin and am very prone to acne. I'm wondering if anyone has any tips to prevent it?

Clinique is a great brand for sensitive skin and is very unisex. If you know your skin type (I would guess oily), get a good skincare regime going. My husband had complaints of oily skin but was not moisturizing. This can cause the skin to produce more oil. It might take a bit for your skin to adjust but it should help. If acne persists, try some spot treatments with glycolic acid or salicylic acid.

Hi @staplemaple

You may want to try exfoliating your skin a few days after shaving. Also, First Aid Beauty has great products for sensitive skin. The FIRST AID BEAUTY - Skin Rescue Acne Clearing Charcoal Cleanser with Probiotics Rescue Acne Clearing Charcoal Cleanser is great for targeting acne and brightening the skin.  Their Rescue Acne Clearing Pads are also great to use after cleansing. I hope that this helps. 

Best,
