Confidence Starts With
How You Feel In Your Own Skin
For men, confidence can come from success, family, appearance, or personal accomplishments—but for many, especially African American men, something as routine as shaving can stand in the way of that confidence.
Studies from the U.S. Pharmacist and the American Academy of Family Physicians show that up to 94% of African American men experience pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB)—commonly known as razor bumps. This chronic condition, caused by naturally curly hair growing back into the skin, isn’t just painful—it’s limiting.
PFB can affect appearance, self-esteem, and even career advancement. In the U.S. military, for example, African American men hold over 66% of all shaving waivers—many due to PFB. These waivers can restrict promotions and, as of July 2025, may even lead to early discharge.
That’s why The Bump Serum was created: a targeted, 3-step shaving system designed to reduce razor bumps and restore skin confidence.

What Are The Products Themselves?
The Bump Serum shaving system is comprised of three products:
1. A shaving gel that minimizes razor-to-skin contact while cleaning the blade.
2. An aftershave with natural ingredients that mitigates inflammation from shaving trauma.
3. A sealant cream whose emollients unblocks pores and traps moisture under the skin, allowing easier hair growth for your next shave.
