Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong place, and for asking so many questions. I was wondering if anyone could offer any advice on getting some shaving supplies as a gift? My boyfriend has really sensitive skin and tends to get a lot of ingrown hairs, and also his hair line goes really low on his neck where the skin is tender. He always says shaving really hurts, so when he mentioned a few months ago that he wanted a shaving brush I did a bit of research and jumped on the idea as it seemed it might improve the shaving experience for him. Mainly I'm looking for affordable products from places based in the UK, as I don't have a huge amount of money to spend on something I'm not 100% sure if he'll like yet. I'm sure you all know some good starter products?
I have bought a brush, its an Edwin Jagger synthetic one for Crabtree and Evelyn. Is that definitely a good one to start out with?
I was also wondering if anyone knows a good brand of shaving soap/cream for sensitive skin that's affordable. I mean maybe £10 or so, is that unrealistic? I'm a bit overwhelmed by the choice there so any pointers would be great.
As for a safety razor, I'm considering it, but I just don't know if it's the kind of thing that's worth getting on a budget or not. Would one in the region of £20ish (such as this which would match the brush I got!) be any good to start with?
Thanks in advance :-D
