Cosmetic Corner: Dermatologists Weigh in on Antiperspirants
Leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top antiperspirants. See what they’re recommending to their patients and why.
To improve patient care and outcomes, leading dermatologists offered their recommendations on the top aftershaves. Consideration must be given to:
- The Art of Shaving Pre-Shave Oil
Procter and Gamble
“It helps soften the skin prior to a close shave and it continues to keep the skin well hydrated throughout the day without being greasy. The Pre-Shave Oil comes in unique blends of essential oils with sandalwood, lavender, lemon, and unscented formulations.”—Amanda LaReau, MD, Barrington, Illinois
- CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion AM
Valeant Pharmaceuticals North America LLC
“I recommend gentle washing with a cleanser followed by shaving with a fresh razor and then using CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion AM as an aftershave.”—Gary Goldenberg, MD, New York, New York
- Post Shave Cooling Gel
Jack Black
“To use right after shaving, it is alcohol free but has witch hazel and aloe that give the skin a cooling sensation. It also has lavender and calendula, which are soothing postshave.”—Anthony M. Rossi, MD, New York, New York
Cutis invites readers to send us their recommendations. Skin care products for babies, hand sanitizers, and cleansers for rosacea patients will be featured in upcoming editions of Cosmetic Corner. Please e-mail your recommendation(s) to the Editorial Office.
