Dry and air are your friend.... I do not put anything on it -- just shave, clean with witch hazel and keep it dry

I have done it both ways; leaving it dry with just witch hazel, and also using neosporin. I found they are both effective. If it looked red, irritated; I did add neosporin, and its always helped. Another awesome thing is Vetericyn, that stuff is amazing! I got it off Amazon.

Drying it out is the best way, I would not use Neosporin on it, preferably something with a steroid like hydraCortizone would be better. I personally would use a Panalog type ointment or Malecetic ultra, because they contain an antibacterial, anti-fungal, as well as a steroid.
