Shaving Damage 101: How To Prevent Skin Damage from Shaving

If you’re wondering what happens when you shave, hair removal can actually take away the top layers of your skin. If you've noticed redness, irritated underarms or itching after shaving, this might be why. We’re on a mission to care for your underarms with our replenishing, non-irritating formula, proving that soft, resilient skin after shaving does exist.

Say hello to the innovative Pro-Ceramide Technology that features in our Advanced Care antiperspirant deodorant range. It works to help restore and strengthen the skin’s natural moisture barrier by replenishing it with ceramides after shaving, so your underarms can enjoy the care they deserve.

To help your underarms stay soft and resilient, choose an antiperspirant deodorant from our Advanced Care range. After shaving, wait a few minutes before applying your antiperspirant (the formula works best on cool, dry skin).* Hold your deodorant about six inches away and spray for two seconds under each arm. It gets to work right away to replenish your skin, while keeping sweat and odor at bay.

*Please don’t apply to broken or irritated skin 

Our goal? Helping you show off your underarms with total confidence. To give you an extra boost, we’ve infused our Advanced Care range with the most uplifting fragrances. Try the vibrant fruity and floral scent of Dove Advanced Care Acai Berry & Lotus Flower Antiperspirant Dry Spray, or the warm, creamy fragrance of Dove Advanced Care Mango & Almond Butter Antiperspirant Stick.
