Shaving

Hi! Welcome to my first post. I came up with this while in the bath today. 

Shaving; legs, face, which ever other part of your body you'd like.

I have found that exfoliating is the key to keeping your skin looking great after a shave. Exfoliate about every other day. I use a natural sea sponge hand thingy with a moisturizing body wash. 

Next, now this might be a bit weird in concept for you but, I don't use shaving cream. I use a thick, replenishing, conditioner. Yes, as in hair conditioner. It allows the razor to glide over your skin easily and helps prevent irritation (those annoying red bumps). This can also be used for men and their beards.

Use a sharp razor. Don't leave your razor in the shower, it will rust and dull. One thing I always support is, even for women, use a razor intended for a man. If it can hug the sharp curves of a man's face, it can do the same for a woman's body. 

After care: moisturizer. Be it a tick cream or just a useful body lotion. This is based on how dry your skin is and what you prefer. If you are prone to red bumps or irritation, use a astringent before the lotion. May I suggest a sensitive skin version because it won't burn as much, if at all. If you're looking for that shine, there are some light oils and oil sprays out there that will do both, moisturize and give a gleam. Sometimes, even come with a light sent. 

This little tricks can be used by men and women on any part of the body you chose. These are my ticks, I hope they work for you!

If you have any of your own that get great results, please leave them in the comments. I'd love to hear them.
