Dermalogica was founded in 1986 on the belief that proper skin care is a critical component of a healthy lifestyle, and when skin is in its healthiest state it looks its best. Driven by research and education, Dermalogica products are developed by The International Dermal Institute, the world’s leading authority on education for skin care professionals.

As skin care professionals, we know shaving impacts skin health: ingrown hairs, irritation and redness are just some of the visible signs of trauma your skin undergoes when you take a razor to it. There is no reason men should not have a great shave and healthy skin. As such, The International Dermal Institute has researched and developed a system of products specifically designed to deliver skin health and an improved shave.

The Dermalogica Shave system consists of dual-action products that deliver a super-close shave and the ultimate in skin health. It begins with signature products customized for your skin. It continues with distinctive ingredients tailored to meet beard growth needs. It ends with a smooth, close, irritation-free shave, and better-looking skin. Skin looks better, feels better, and suffers less from the common problems associated with shaving.

the top three shaving concerns that affect skin health

The top shaving concerns include: Pseudofolliculitis barbae Razor burn Tough, heavy beards

Pseudofolliculitis barbae ( Ingrown Hairs and Razor Bumps )

Ingrown hairs manifest on skin when hair is cut, and the hair grows back in at an improper angle. The process of cutting the end of the hair shaft through shaving can force hair back into its follicle, or even cause hair to double over on itself, re-entering the same follicle and growing inward instead of exiting the surface. The hair shaft can also grow and enter another follicle.

The body recognizes this ingrown hair as a foreign body (similar to the way it would a splinter), and triggers an inflammatory response that includes redness, itchiness and a raised area that resembles a pimple that can fill with pus.

To help prevent ingrown hairs, start by exfoliating with physical and chemical exfoliants prior to shaving. Physical exfoliants including micro-fine Silica beads will help effectively exfoliate and prep the skin’s surface and lift hairs. Chemical exfoliants including Lactic Acid and Salicylic Acid will help remove dead skin cells, lift ingrown hairs above the skin line, and soften and smooth skin. Retinol will also help gently exfoliate dulling skin cells from the skin’s surface. And, antiseptic essential oils of Tea Tree and Eucalyptus help clear pores to prevent clogging while purifying skin.

1.

what happens when skin is shaved?

Simply put, shaving is a form of mechanical exfoliation. Shaving triggers a high level of visible irritation and can serve as a form of over-exfoliation, as well as lead to a compromised lipid barrier. When the skin’s lipid barrier is compromised, there is an increase in moisture loss, which leads to dry, scaly, cracked skin, and a sensitized skin condition.

Further dehydration can occur in the lower layers of the epidermis when the skin’s lipid barrier is compromised. A dehydrated skin leads to inefficiencies in the physiology of the skin, in particular, enzymes responsible for normal desquamation.

Skin dryness can increase skin’s susceptibility to a various number of shaving concerns, including Pseudofolliculitis barbae (ingrown hairs and razor bumps), razor burn and sensitivity.

As the razor shaves skin, skin is exfoliated, and new layers of skin are exposed. If skin is not properly protected both during the shave and in the post-shave processes, a compromised lipid barrier will leave skin vulnerable. Skin will experience moisture loss, itching, redness and increased sensitivity.

Razor BurnRazor burn can occur a number of ways when skin is shaved incorrectly: when skin is shaved too closely and too quickly, when shaving with a blunt blade, when the blade is not rinsed enough between shaving strokes (leaving build-up on the blade), when too much skin is removed during the process, when dry shaving or not using enough lubrication between skin and razor, when shaving against the grain, or when shaving over already irritated or sensitized areas.

Razor burn is inflammation of the skin that we could classify as Irritant Contact Dermatitis. Irritant Contact Dermatitis is a reaction triggered by certain substances or ingredients, constant friction (razor against skin) or even water. The symptoms are burning, itching, stinging and redness. Razor burn can be as mild as a few hours of discomfort and reddened skin or can last for days, resembling a rash or scratch that remains itchy and inflamed. It can even manifest into infected breakouts or blisters.

Continued irritation or assault causing inflammation will result in prematurely aged skin. In addition to all of the symptoms that a sensitive or sensitized skin may experience, the sufferer will also see the signs of premature aging on the skin.

Ingredients including Wheat Germ, Yeast Extract and Silicones will help protect the skin’s natural barrier lipid layer, helping to combat irritation, reddening and mechanical peeling associated with razor burn. Aloe Vera will calm skin while promoting skin repair, and Soybean Oil, Vitamin E and essential oils including Sambucus (Elder Tree) and Achillea (Yarrow) reinforce skin’s natural protective barrier while fighting free radical damage.

Tough, Heavy BeardsDepending upon genetics, ethnicity and hormones, a male client may have a heavy or tough beard. Heavier beards are more challenging to shave, as the hair shaft more frequently clogs the razor, or the razor is not sharp enough to cut through the hair, causing painful scraping and tugging. As such, men with heavier beards are more likely to suffer from itching, stinging, redness, nicks and cuts.

In order to ease the discomfort associated with shaving a heavier beard, the beard must be softened, lifted, and the skin must be protected through a shaving medium. However, most products use ingredients that are high in alkali that help soften and lift the beard but leave the skin dry, tight and irritated.

To help soften and lift the beard without damaging skin, look for pre-shave or shaving products that include Camphor, a natural antiseptic that helps firm skin to lift the beard, Clove Flower Oil, which helps open the pores while softening the beard to prevent scraping and tugging of the hair, Glycerin and Sodium Hyaluronate to add additional lubricity during shaving, and soothing Wheat Germ Extract and Yeast Extract to combat irritation and redness.

Sebum, oil-based debris, and dulling and dead skin cells collect on skin’s surface, creating a barrier that prevents the razor from touching skin. This prevents a close shave, and can cause the razor to tug or pull at the hair, ultimately leading to ingrown hairs, razor burn, and sensitization.

Exfoliation removes oil, oil-based debris, and dulling dead skin cells. This allows the razor to come in close contact with skin to help maximize cutting of the hair shaft for a closer, more even shave. Removal of debris also minimizes pore clogging and trapped debris that can manifest razor bumps and ingrown hairs.

In addition to using the correct products for skin condition and beard type, it is crucial to shave with the grain (the same direction the hair shaft grows). The direction of beard growth can be different all over the face, and will most likely be completely different on the neck. Because each client will have a unique grain (facial hair) pattern, it is critical to note the direction. Often times, the lower area of the neck (zone 14) will demonstrate a change in the grain, where hair will shift from growing downward and transition towards growing away from the chin or even upward. This can also happen on the outer areas of zones 5 and 9 (the sideburn area). If beard growth is too long, or client has just shaven, and you cannot determine the pattern, instruct client to shave and wait approximately 1 to 3 days, and then run a hand over the area of beard growth area to determine direction of the grain.

If clients have a heavy, coarse beard, it is ok for them to shave against the grain, but only after first shaving with the grain, when the hair is shorter and less likely to curl back in on itself. After the initial shave with the grain, the client must re-apply all necessary shaving mediums before shaving against the grain.

The pressure applied during the shave process is also critical to the prevention of nicks, cuts, razor burn, irritation and redness. Applying too much pressure won’t provide a closer shave: it will just facilitate the removal of skin cells, leading to irritation. If the razor is sharp enough, minimal pressure will be sufficient for removing hair. Use a steady, constant motion when shaving, making each shave stroke around 1 to 2 inches long.

Male clients must understand that when selecting a shaving system, the affect of products on skin is just as important to consider as a preference for gel versus cream. And if they are truly looking to clear existing skin problems and maintain skin health in the most efficient method possible, it is necessary to do more than shave.

Dermalogica Shave allows skin care professionals to outline a straight-forward, three-step regimen that includes products for the Pre-Shave, Shave and Post-Shave process. Each step acts as a progression, designed to help further eliminate the top skin care concerns brought on by shaving. This system will deliver smoother, healthier skin that experiences a drastic decline in reactions to shaving.

Pre-Shave: Cleanse skin, soften beard, and minimize irritation, ingrown hairs, nicks and cuts.

The cleansing portion of Pre-Shave helps remove bacteria, surface oils and debris that, if left on the skin before shaving, would impede the closeness of the shave and result in an uneven shave. The protective portion of Pre-Shave helps soften the beard while providing additional protection from the razor without impacting the closeness of the shave.

Clean Bar* (cleanser) Daily Clean Scrub* (cleanser and exfoliant) Pre-Shave Guard (lubricating skin protectant)

Shave: Whether a gel, cream or water-soluble oil, it must protect skin’s natural moisture barrier.

Shaving ingredients must help lift and soften the beard and protect skin from the blade without impeding razor closeness.

Soothing Shave Cream Invigorating Shave Gel Close Shave Oil

Post-Shave: Application of post-shave products will cool and soothe skin while alleviating dryness, itchiness, redness, ingrown hairs, bumps and damage caused by skin-aging UV rays.

Post-Shave Balm* Daily Defense Block SPF15*

All Shave products are suitable for use on the head.

The same rules that apply to shaving the face and neck apply to shaving the head. It is important to apply Pre-Shave, Shave and Post-Shave products (especially SPF) to help keep skin healthy and free of common side effects of shaving. Attention to the direction of the grain is also important when shaving the head.

Your Face Mapping® skin analysis will drive each customized product prescription. While your male clients will be purchasing these products for themselves, you will have a lot of women interested in purchasing these products for men. As such, the dialogue you have with female clients is very important to how you’ll prescribe these products.

When speaking to female clients about purchasing Shave products for men, use the following questions as a guide:

1. What kind of beard does the person have? (Does it grow in quickly after shaving or take a few days?)

2. Is the skin prone to redness or irritation?3. Does the person wet shave or use an electric razor?4. How often does the person shave?5. Is the person’s skin sensitive, oily, dry or normal?6. Does the person shave in the shower or at the sink?7. Does the person experience ingrown hairs or bumps?

Remember, Dermalogica’s Pre-Shave and Post-Shave products can be recommended for those who dry shave or use an electric razor.

Dermalogica Shave products can also be prescribed for clients who shave their heads. Clean Bar, Soothing Shave Cream, Invigorating Shave Gel and Close Shave Oil are great for preparing and shaving the head. Post-Shave Balm can also be prescribed to help cool skin and prevent ingrown hairs. And, Daily Defense Block SPF15 should be prescribed for UV defense to help prevent sunburns and sun damage on this area of the body that is traditionally protected by hair growth.

prescribing the dermalogica shave regimen

In addition to prescribing an at-home treatment, you can further impact the health of your male client’s skin by prescribing a professional skin treatment.

A professional skin treatment will help clear current problems brought on by shaving while preventing future concerns. By prescribing a professional treatment that takes shaving habits into account, a professional skin treatment will expedite the clearing of current skin problems such as ingrown hairs, while deep cleaning, exfoliating and hydrating.

MicroZone Treatments are ideal for men, as they are a no-fuss treatment that delivers results fast. Depending upon your Face Mapping skin analysis, you may perform the MicroZone Men’s Skin Fitness treatment for congested, oily and breakout-prone skin, or the MicroZone Men’s Skin Fitness treatment for inflamed, irritated or sensitized skin.

questions and answers

1. What makes the Dermalogica Shave system better than drug store products? The Dermalogica Shave system, like all Dermalogica products, is free of the common

ingredients found in skin care products that can contribute to skin irritation, sensitization and an overall decline in skin health. And when skin isn’t at its healthiest, this makes it all the more difficult to achieve a close shave without discomfort.

Most foams and gels bought in drug stores are completely synthetic, which is not good for the skin. Also, to help soften the beard, many drug store brands are high in alkali, which causes sensitivity and dryness. Dermalogica Shave products include ingredients such as essential oils to help soften and lift the beard without disturbing the skin’s natural balance.

2. Do men really need a three part shaving system? Absolutely. Dermalogica Shave is designed to provide the ultimate barrier against shaving

while enhancing skin health so each subsequent shave is improved. The simple and efficient Pre-Shave, Shave, and Post-Shave regimen will dramatically improve your client’s skin health while helping to minimize so many of the problems that occur in skin because of shaving. And, the three part system will not require a dramatic amount of time. If anything, the three part shaving regimen should only increase a client’s current time spent shaving by 3 to 4 minutes. Once clients experience the benefit of our Pre-Shave, Shave and Post-Shave regimen, they’ll never return to simple soap-and-water shaving again!

3. Can any of the Dermalogica Shave products be used by women? Of course! All Dermalogica products are formulated to deliver healthy skin, regardless

of gender. Our Shave products will be especially good for female clients who suffer from razor burn and ingrown hairs in commonly shaved areas such as the bikini line, underarms and legs.

4. Will Close Shave Oil clog pores? Close Shave Oil, like all Dermalogica Shave products, is non-comedogenic. Oils that

traditionally contribute to clogged pores are synthetics (such as mineral oil), and all Dermalogica products are free of mineral oil.

5. What is the difference between Invigorating Shave Gel and Soothing Shave Cream? Invigorating Shave Gel is an oil-free, cooling gel that soothes, hydrates and protects against

razor burn. The clear formula allows for optimal visibility of areas to be shaven. Soothing Shave Cream is a rich, non-foaming formula that soothes and calms while enhancing skin’s natural protective barrier.

While both products are designed for all skin conditions and beard types, prescribe Invigorating Shave Gel to clients with oily or breakout-prone skin, or who prefer to shave with a gel. Prescribe Soothing Shave Cream to clients with heavier beards, sensitive or sensitized skin, or to clients who prefer to shave with a cream.
