RAU Cosmetics XXXY Calming After Shave – Soothing & Care for Sensitive Men’s Skin After Shaving

For many men, daily shaving is a fixed part of their grooming routine – but it can also take a toll on the skin. Redness, irritation, tightness, and small inflammations are common side effects. This is exactly where the RAU Cosmetics XXXY Calming After Shave comes in: a high-quality care formula, specifically developed to soothe, regenerate, and protect the skin after shaving – with powerful active ingredients tailored to the needs of sensitive male skin.

Whether after a classic wet shave or an electric dry shave: this after shave helps restore the skin's balance and actively supports regeneration – for a refreshed, well-groomed skin feeling without tightness or redness.

Why a high-quality after shave is so important

Shaving causes micro-injuries: the top layer of skin is slightly damaged by the blade, hair roots are irritated, and natural protective barriers are compromised. A high-quality after shave like the XXXY Calming After Shave from RAU Cosmetics can specifically soothe the skin, reduce irritation, provide moisture, and act anti-inflammatory – while also strengthening the skin barrier.

• Soothes irritated skin immediately after shaving
• Reduces redness and irritation

Highly Effective Ingredients at a Glance

Allantoin – the classic for sensitive skin

Allantoin is known for its soothing, calming, and skin-smoothing properties. It supports natural cell regeneration, promotes wound healing, and reduces swelling. After shaving, it helps heal micro-injuries and minimize irritation. Allantoin is especially well tolerated – even by extremely sensitive skin.

Panthenol – hydration and skin protection in one

Panthenol (Provitamin B5) is a proven active ingredient that penetrates deeply into the skin and binds moisture. It has anti-inflammatory properties, supports wound healing, and strengthens the natural skin barrier. After shaving, Panthenol not only soothes the skin but also helps keep it soft and resilient.

Tocopherol – antioxidant cell protection with vitamin E

Tocopherol, better known as Vitamin E, is one of the most powerful antioxidants. It protects the skin from free radicals and supports cell renewal. It also has smoothing, moisturizing, and skin-strengthening properties – ideal for post-shave care when the skin is especially receptive.

Astaxanthin – the super antioxidant from algae

Astaxanthin, derived from the microalgae Haematococcus Pluvialis, is one of the most powerful natural antioxidants. It protects skin cells from oxidative stress, acts anti-inflammatory, and supports skin regeneration. In after shave products, Astaxanthin helps reduce shave-related skin aging and strengthens the skin over the long term.

Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil – sunflower oil for gentle care

This light, non-comedogenic oil is rich in linoleic acid (omega-6 fatty acid), which has anti-inflammatory properties and strengthens the skin barrier. Sunflower oil softens and smoothens the skin without weighing it down or leaving a greasy film – perfect for a well-groomed feeling after shaving.

Proline – essential amino acid for skin structure

Proline is a naturally occurring amino acid that plays a key role in collagen metabolism. It helps maintain skin elasticity, supports regeneration, and has antioxidant effects. After shaving, Proline helps strengthen and firm the skin’s structure.

Pentylene Glycol & Propylene Glycol – dual hydration with antimicrobial effect

These two ingredients not only provide effective hydration but also have antimicrobial properties. This means they help prevent harmful bacteria from entering the skin after shaving and protect against irritation. At the same time, they enhance the absorption of other active ingredients.

Polyglyceryl-6 Caprylate – gentle, natural-based emulsifier

This ingredient ensures a pleasant texture and improves the product’s skin compatibility. It helps evenly distribute the active ingredients and supports the replenishing effect – without being heavy or greasy.

Xanthan Gum – natural stability and light texture

Xanthan is a plant-based gelling agent that gives the product a pleasant consistency. It gently coats the skin without clogging it – for a fresh skin feel after application.

Citric Acid – pH balance

Citric acid is used to maintain a skin-friendly pH level in the after shave. A stable pH is essential to avoid impairing the skin's natural protective barrier – especially after shaving.

Application – How to get the best results

Recommended use:
Apply RAU XXXY Calming After Shave to clean, dry skin after shaving or washing your face. A small amount is sufficient. Gently massage in until fully absorbed. The skin immediately feels soothed, nourished, and refreshed.

Tip: Also ideal for use after shaving the neck or décolleté – or as daily care for sensitive skin.
