6How to Shave with Acne Prone Skin
In people with acne-prone skin, it is advisable to shave similarly to how they should when they had an active breakout. When they do not have an active breakout, but their skin is acne-prone and oily, consider lathering the shaving cream with a shaving brush. This would help make the hair stay straight up, which could prevent irritation and ingrown hairs due to cutting on an angle. Nevertheless, shaving brushes would be irritating to those with breakouts. Studies have suggested that many people with sensitive skin tend to experience skin reactions after shaving. Common symptoms may include stinging, burning, or skin redness. [8]
