Self care Thread

[Progrez]

Ok folks so have your self care techniques changed? Mine have I think I might have to switch to shaving oil as I get eczema after shaving using shaving cream and I have been using it for the past 25 years.

It's super annoying and I want to improve my self care technique as well as I have always put others first.

What's do you use?

Do you know the other meaning of the word grooming?

My apologies man sorry I didn't know what that meant I thought it was meant self care.

 

[Archon]

Hahaha no worries, an HR in the office told me what this means - at work we used it instead of "refinement".

What's do you use?

- (ice) cold water in the morning (1 minute at least)
- a basic philips electric shaver like, once or twice a month.

and that it.

I was thinking this could be,
1) getting healthy, or
2) new job or quitting one you hate (I'm the latter)
3) having a holiday or spending time with friends and family
4) or as mentioned...

@Progrez I reverted to shea butter. Keeps the old beard n skin in good nick.

If you've been using shaving cream for years but now experience eczema, switching to shaving oil might be a great option. Shaving oils can be gentler on sensitive skin and help prevent irritation. As for improving your self-care, it's essential to focus on your well-being, especially when life feels stressful. I recommend checking out Canadian Pharmacy Partner for products that support your health and grooming routine. They offer various solutions that can help you manage skin sensitivity and stress in a reliable way.

Found it old, but if you've been using shaving cream for years but now experience eczema, switching to shaving oil might be a great option. Shaving oils can be gentler on sensitive skin and help prevent irritation.

I actually made the switch to shaving oil a few months ago after dealing with sudden flare-ups, and it works great. My skin feels way less irritated, and I haven’t had any eczema patches since. It takes a little getting used to, but totally worth it for sensitive skin.

By the way, they have the word 'Grooming' listed on here at a big australia chemist here. Its interesting that you guys have eczema as well.

I found this italian brand to be amazing and the shaving cream was amazing for sensitive skin and my eczema didn't come back but it's a bit expensive.
