2. Apply shaving cream to your face. Squirt the cream in your hands and use your fingers to apply the cream to your face. The amount of shaving cream you use depends on how thick your beard is. Just make sure the entire beard is evenly covered with shaving cream.

This will help keep your skin tightened and reduce the possibility of cuts.
