Cream for rash?

    Sometimes I get this annoying rash (most likely from shaving) and I was wondering if there was any decent cream I could pick up in boots for it. I've tried some Nivea stuff before but it doesn't seem to do the trick.


    Thanks in advance.

    Try a tea tree moisturiser, its good for irritated skin and ingrown hairs, both of which can be caused by shaving. Boots should have their own brand which wont break the bank and should do the job.
    Just apply it after shaving and possibly before bed for a few days until the rash recedes. Once the rash has calmed down abit, using it after shaving should suffice.

    and make sure you're shaving properly - I find wetting (not drowning) hairs with a hot face cloth beforehand works wonders. Make sure your razor is good quality and not blunt.

    I use Clarins Balm myself, I think it contains some tea tree ingredients. Its pricey but does the trick
