Frequently Asked Questions

Does Prepa Shave replace shaving cream or shaving soap?

No. Prepa Shave is a preparation used before lathering. After applying the lotion, the manufacturer specifically recommends using shaving cream or shaving soap and only then shaving.

Is the pre-shave lotion fragrance-free?

The published INCI does not list Parfum or an explicitly added fragrance. However, this does not establish any separate fragrance-free certification; the ingredients themselves may still have a natural smell.

How is Prepa Shave different from an aftershave?

Prepa Shave is used before shaving to prepare beard hair and skin. An aftershave or shaving balm is intended for care after shaving. They serve different purposes.

Does Prepa Shave completely prevent ingrown beard hairs?

No, complete prevention cannot be guaranteed. Monsieur BARBIER positions the lotion as helping prevent shaving irritation and ingrown hairs. Shaving technique, hair growth and individual skin reactions also affect the outcome.

Is Prepa Shave also intended for a dry electric shave?

The published directions describe wet shaving: apply the lotion to damp skin, then use shaving cream or shaving soap. This does not specifically establish suitability for dry electric shaving.
