Shaving, Exfoliating, Moisturizing, Oh My!
Am I the only one that completely changes their body skincare routine during the summer? I cannot be the only one that gets ingrown hairs, dry skin & bikini bump irritation right (lol, at least I hope not)? With the summer heat & humidity comes clogged pores and oh so much more! Spending more time in bikini’s & shorts means more shaving, which means more irritation. This summer I focused on finding products that would aid all my common summer skincare concerns. If we change our clothing for each season, why shouldn’t we change our skincare?!
Shaving: I have been shaving for as long as I can remember (I am Italian & it shows). For years I would just go with a random razor I found at the drugstore, not really putting much thought into it – it’s just a razor, right? Wrong! It was when I used the Flamingo razor, I realized I had been settling all those years. I am one of those girls that shaves my legs 3-4x a week & with the Flamingo, I honestly shave 1x a week. Game changer. I am not exactly sure how the razor makes my shave last longer but I swear it does! I have never been a fan of shaving cream… An extra product, an extra step = extra! When I came across this shaving oil I was intrigued and since trying it, I have repurchased many many times. With this oil, a little goes a long way! The scent is amazing (Moroccan rose-omg amazing). The oil working with the razor is life-changing & I will never stray from this duo!
Exfoliating: From my personal experience, exfoliating your body is KEY. I really notice a difference with my bikini & underarm areas when I stay on top of exfoliating! If we exfoliate our faces, our bodies need the same. I love this exfoliant– it’s the same scent as the shaving oil & it’s SO good! This product is more on the mild side, not too rough but gets the job done! I love the price point of Tree Hut’s products! Not only are the products amazing- you cannot beat the price!
Treatments: Where are all my waxing girls at?! I wax many things but not my legs. Two things- 1. I hear the legs are the most painful & 2. Expensive. If you wax, you know that ‘post-wax’ can be interesting! I am the queen of ingrown & irritation. My waxer recently introduced me to the PFB Vanish and OMG! This product is a lifesaver! Again, a little goes a long way it really helps with any bumps, ingrown hairs & irritation you experience as a result of shaving/waxing. Another great product to help with those pesky ‘bumps’ is the Completely Bare Bikini Blaster. This product will do the same thing as the PFB Vanish BUT personally, I feel the Bikini Blaster is stronger. This can be a good or bad thing, lol! If you have sensitive skin, go with the PFB Vanish – both get the job done but you may want to play it safe!
Moisturizing: I typically don’t spend a lot on moisturizers for my body (I would rather splurge on products for my face) so this product is a YES for me. The price is comparable to many body moisturizers you could pick up at the drugstore but does wonders! Like I said, I am Italian, my hair is aggressive (like I use a body wash that slows your hair growth aggressive) so when I found this product I was so excited! This product is a no brainer for me, thins/slows hair growth, smells SO good (lemongrass & green tea- very fresh/clean), extremely hydrating & the price!
Am I the only one that has a full-body skincare routine? For me, it’s necessary, especially in the summertime! What body-specific products have y’all been loving this summer?
Xoxo, Kayla
