SHAVING ESSENTIALS
OKAY YA’LL! Lets talk about shaving! Something I hate doing but has to be done. For me, I have seriously sensitive legs when I’m shaving so I have to take every precaution necessary so it’s becomes quite the production. So I’m gonna hit ya with the products I use and which ones are my favorites. And trust me these are good because I’ve tried it all!
Loofa / Dry Brush
First up is a loofa and dry brush. I get my loofas from target and my dry brush off amazon. I always try and use a dry brush before I jump in the shower. I have a whole blog post on dry brushing that I’ll link here so I won’t get into the details! I always use a loofa in the shower and if you don’t I’m not sure what you’re washing your body with! All these products are going to help with exfoliation and getting the dry dead skin off your body. Exfoliating is super important before shaving because it gives you a clean surface to work with.
So I just recently picked this up at Target and I have to say I love it. It’s really moisturizing and smells incredible. A good shaving gel is key! It’s super moisturizing and makes your hair really soft, perfect for shaving! I know not everybody uses a shave gel but for someone with sensitive skin (me!) it really is necessary. I need to take the moisture any where I can get it!
Okay, this is seriously a game changer. I can’t say enough great things about Billie! I just got this razor this past month and it is seriously the best. The blade stays nice and sharp and leaves you with such a smooth shave. Honestly it’s incredible. The fact that it’s also subscription based is amazing. I’m always running out the buy new razors and now I don’t even have to think about it. It’s also the best option price wise!! Your first purchase is 10 bucks for the razor and two blades. Then you can change how often you get the razors sent to you depending on how often you shave. It’s a no brainer! I can’t believe that I’m so late to this party!
This is my holy grail body lotion. My legs are so sensitive to lotions after I shave and this is the only one that doesn’t bother my legs! YES! Honestly it has made me so happy to finally be able to soothe my legs after shaving. I can’t recommend this lotion enough! AND you can add it to your subscription so that’s one more thing I won’t have to worry about!
To finish it, this is the best. It has a reputation for being a product for men BUT that’s not true! Tend Skin honestly saved me last summer. I found it last summer when I was struggling with razor bumps and ingrown hairs. I use this product in the morning and before you go to bed and it takes care of the infected area. It doesn’t have the greatest smell but it really does work. I know I’m not the only one that struggles with ingrown hairs! All you do is put the solution on a cotton round and apply to I really recommend everyone to try this product! Especially if you’re shaving your bikini line this summer. You’re welcome in advance for the advice!
