Home Remedy for Razor Burns
Shaving is a common process that both men and women
undertake, to look clean and hygienic. While it makes a person appear
neat and tidy, the bad part of it is that it might result in bad patches
on the skin, in the form of burns. The small bumps are a result of
irritation in the skin, caused by the metal razor. These bumps are known
as razor burns. Razor burns usually start from a reddish mild rash,
which can lead to itchiness, pain and a burning sensation as well. These
burns cause an uncomfortable feeling. However, with little care and the
right kind of substances used, they can be avoided as well as healed.
Given below are some home remedies that can come handy while dealing
with razor burns.
Home Remedy For Razor Burns
- An easy way to treat razor burn at home would be to pat the area
with apple cider vinegar.
- In a tsp of sour cream, mix the pulp of 2 strawberries and form a
paste. Apply this paste on the affected area, as a mask, for about
10 minutes. Then, wash the area using lukewarm water. Repeat this
twice a week.
- Aloe vera oil is helpful in curing razor burns. Dab the shaved
area with cotton ball that has been soaked in the oil.
- Potato is effective in curing razor burns. Peel the skin of a
potato and cut it in thin slices. Apply this over the affected area.
- Applying petroleum jelly over the affected area three times a day
is an effective way to treat razor burns.
- Before shaving, moisten the area with a wash cloth, dipped in hot
water (mixed with lavender essential oil). Pat the skin several
times with this. Now, apply a thin layer of moisturizing oil, like
avocado or jojoba. This will help you avoid razor burns and also
make shaving an easy process.
- Mix 1 tbsp each of dried comfrey leaves and dried calendula
flowers in 1/2 cup of witch hazel extract and keep it for 2 weeks.
Store this lotion and use it whenever razor burns occur. It usually
lasts for about 6 months.
- In ¼ cup of rose water, mix ¼ cup of strained witch
hazel. In this, add 1/4 tsp vegetable glycerin, along with 5 drops
each of lavender essential oil and sandalwood essential oil. Use it
on the affected area. Store it in a cool place and shake it each
time before use.
- Shaving in the direction of hair growth is time consuming, but is
definitely one of the safest ways to avoid razor burns.
