Clarifying and relaxing – peeling before or after shaving?
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. Your skin renews itself approximately every 30 days, which is faster than many other cells in the body.
As new cells grow, the old ones must be shed. These accumulate as flakes on the skin. While the skin naturally rids itself of these cells, sometimes it needs support.
When old skin cells mix with excess sebum, pores can become clogged. A scrub helps clarify the skin and optimally prepare it for shaving . It ensures a fresh, even complexion and a pleasant feeling after use.
Peeling before or after shaving – which is better?
When it comes to exfoliation, the timing is crucial – and that is before shaving, epilating or waxing .
After exfoliation, the skin not only appears rosier but also smoother . This makes shaving significantly easier.
Dry, uneven skin makes it difficult for the razor to glide smoothly, making it easier to cause minor cuts. On the other hand, smooth skin allows the razor to reach the hair more easily, resulting in a more thorough shave.

What are the benefits of peeling?
In addition to preparing for shaving, exfoliation has other benefits:
- It removes dead skin cells.
- It reduces excess sebum.
- It can clear clogged pores.
- The skin then appears smoother, rosier and fresher.
- It optimally prepares the skin for further care steps.
How does the pre-shave peeling work?
Whether you want to exfoliate your face, arms, armpits, legs or intimate area – make sure you use a gentle exfoliation .

It's perfectly prepared for shaving, epilation, or waxing.
Of course, exfoliating after shaving is also possible. However, afterward, the skin needs a soothing treatment that protects and calms it. Even a gentle shave can stress the skin and cause mild irritation.
