Hi,
I use it on my undersarms before waxing, so I would think it should be okay on the face. However, don't let it get into your eyes.
Hope this helps.

yes he could. i would also suggest he try the zhir line of shave gel. i buy my man the zhir gel its very cooling and he has nary a razor burn- he raves about it. i used to buy it for my ex and he still uses it! i would suggest zhir shave gel not the shave cream though. then this for 'aftershave'.

Question
How to Use
Is this a pre shave or post shave gel? I have to use a braun foil razor to help minimize ingrown haors and other breakouts due to shaving and am interested in using this product in addition to the razor, but it would need to be for post-shave and post-shower if possible to go with my daily routine.

Yes, this is made for men and the scent, I would think, is distinctly masculine. It contains a fair amount of acids and alcohol that it was designed for "healing" facial imperfections. I can't imagine a woman wanting this product on their legs or underarms with the way the scent layers with perfumes and colonges.

My husband uses this on his face after he shaves with Lab Shave Cream. Prior to this product combo, he used various drug store products that made him HATE shaving because his sensitive skin breaks out. I would say he also has a coarse beard (it never feels soft to me!).

I have not tried it on my face but assuming that he keeps it away from his eyes, I don't see why not. Since he has sensitive skin he might want to try it once a day instead of the twice a day it recommends in the beginning.

Hi,
If it had one on the container, I can't find it. However, mine is about a year old and just as effective when it was new. I only used it for a few days before I wax my underarms, so I don't use it that often. However, there has been no change in how effective it is over the past year. It's great.
Hope this helps.
