I have ordered the pre shave cream Proraso, I have bumps under my nose/top lip area, waiting for alum block and Proraso nick treatment cream to arrive. I will not give up DE.pre shave cream.
Maybe I should use it for my problem bumps and nicks after shaving, the bumps are there before I shave. The nicks after I shave...Nivea sensitive aftershave balm everyone uses
Good advice, Steve. Especially the advice to use NO PRESSURE! But be aware that (despite the name) Nivea sensitive balm gives quite a few people bad reactions. The only substance know to shavekind that makes my face break out in a rash. So try changing every bit of your routine. And use NO PRESSURE. The NO in NO PRESSURE doesn't mean 'little' or 'just enough', it means NO. NONE. NADA. If you need pressure, something else is amiss (angle, blade, lather, whatever)....
Because I have such sensitive skin, I skip an aftershave splash and use the Nivea sensitive aftershave balm everyone uses, that also seems to help somewhat.

The lucky tiger face tonic works really well on my face and neck tbh. I'm hoping the change of shaving soap will be the last piece in the puzzle hahaI definitely agree with @riverrun on nivea sensitive good shave or bad shave that stuff burns my neck worst then an alum block. I now use witch Hazel which helps my red bumps on lower left side of my neck. I have not tried lucky tiger face tonic so dont know if it the same as witch Hazel.
Any suggestions on where to start ? Without sounding like a complete numpty could it not be achieved with a straight or something like a feather artist club ss? Or are they simply to harsh?You are shaving too close. Period. Forget the obsession with BBS. IMO, ditch the shavette and get a DE that is mild.
