How to Use Smoove

Whether it's your first time using a safety razor or you want a refresher on how to use it best when it arrives, follow the steps below. 

1. Prep your skin 🚿
   A common mistake is shaving too early. Shave after a warm shower or bath when your skin and hair are softened. Apply your favourite shaving cream, gel or oil for a smoove glide. 
   
   
2. Hold at a 30° angle 
   Place the razor against your skin at roughly a 30° angle. This helps the blade glide comfortably while giving you a close shave. 
   
   
3. Let the razor do the work 🪒
   Unlike cartridge razors, you don't need to press down. Simply let the weight of the razor glide over your skin using light, gentle pressure. 
   
   
4. Shave with the grain 
   Use short, slow strokes in the direction your hair naturally grows and rinse the blade regularly to keep it clear of hair and shaving cream. 
   
   
5. Rinse and moisturise 🫧
   Rinse your skin with warm water, pat dry and apply a moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated. 
   
   
6. Dry and put away your razor
   Rinse your razor thoroughly after each use and allow it to dry completely before storing. Replace the blade every 5-10 shaves or sooner if you notice any tugging or irritation.
