If you happen to constantly nick yourself while shaving, experience redness from razor burn, or have an annoying itchy mosquito bite or a burning zit that just popped, the TwinLuxe Instant Rescue Gel is the perfect skin care healing product for you.  This soothing botanicals formulation fights irritation, calms and cools irritated skin to provide instant relief — use for any skin care or shaving emergencies.  Since our gel is an innovative product to hit the men’s grooming market, we often get asked — “Well…how do I use it?”
 
The Instant Rescue Gel has a translucent toothpaste consistency.  The proper way to apply this product is to gently dab it on your problem spot.  Do not spread it out thin like how you would with a facial moisturizer.  Instead, it is best to leave the gel lumpy on the target area. 
 
For shaving emergencies, applying the Instant Rescue Gel in the manner described above allows the blood to coagulate inside the gel and not drip down your face.  You’ll be amazed at how fast the bleeding and/or redness stops. You will also feel a slight stinging sensation on any open cuts letting you know that the botanicals are doing their magic. After application, let the gel air-dry for around 10 minutes.  It will dry into a thin clear to white flaky layer which can be easily flicked off with your fingertips later.

Since many of our customers have asked us “Why don’t you make a lathering shaving cream?”, we wanted to address this question.  The answer boils down to performance.  In our opinion, non-lathering brushless shave creams provide significantly better shaves than lathering ones.  This is due to many reasons:

      • More protection from your blade.
        A slick non-lathering cream that rests on top your skin and beard provides a real physical layer of protection from your razor blades.  On the otherhand, a lathering cream is whipped up with a brush and what you are left is a foamy layer of air resting on top your skin and beard.  Imagine shaving with a razor over air bubbles because that is virtually what you’re doing!
      • More moisturization.
        Since the TwinLuxe Smooth Shave Cream is applied onto the face like a face cream, we are able to pack more beneficial ingredients into it to have it also act as a healing skincare product.  Aside from being an effective shaving product, it also moisturizes and helps soothe and tone skin.

So if you are a die-hard shaving purist tied down with the silvertip brush, try our Smooth Shave Cream.  We know it may be hard for one to break away from the old English barbershop traditions, but TwinLuxe is here to revolutionize and improve the shaving and skin care experience for today’s modern man.
