Is it simple? you just need to follow simple rules: prepare the skin, choose the right time and place, special products and refuse regular soap. What else is important to remember? This is discussed further. Beautiful female legs drove and drive crazy more than one male generation. Therefore, they constantly require care. You probably already prefer some method of depilation and epilation. But do all methods have one common enemy? this irritation after shaving. Well, who wants to put on their favorite skirt after such a failed procedure? It turns out that all efforts were wasted. As a result, the skin turns red, irritated, causes discomfort, and deteriorates the aesthetic appearance.
Therefore, it is necessary to choose the right razor and from time to time pay attention to the sharpness of its blades, change the cassette in time (if a reusable razor), and also follow some simple rules. We will talk about them a little lower, but for now, let's figure out what the danger of a blunt razor is.
When shaving, a dull blade not only cuts off the hair, but also grabs some of the skin, which leads to irritation and cuts. As soon as shaving becomes harder than usual, urgently buy a new cassette or the machine itself. When choosing shaving razors, please note that some of them come with strips soaked in aloe juice. This herb has soothing, wound healing properties and helps prevent redness of the skin of the feet (read why feet hurt).
How can you avoid irritation? rules for shaving your legs
Preparing the skin
If you start the procedure without observing this rule, then you are guaranteed injuries to the skin. To steam the skin well, it is enough to take a warm shower and wipe it with rose water. How to cook: Pour hot water over several rose flowers, leave for 20 minutes and strain. The petals have antiseptic, soothing, wound healing and anti-inflammatory effects.
Shave your legs correctly
As urgent as your rush is, you shouldn't shave dry. Better to do it in the shower or using a shaving foam / cream to soften and moisturize your skin. Do not use ordinary soap - it will certainly lead to irritation, as it contains alkali. But if you still want to use this particular remedy, then it is better to choose a cream soap with moisturizing additives for sensitive skin: with wheat germ oil, jojoba, mango, avocado (learn about the beneficial properties of avocado), macadamia. The best option is special gels, mousses for shaving legs. They have everything that will soften the hair and the top layer of the skin.
After the procedure, apply a cream or lotion with chamomile, aloe (soothes, heals, prevents itching).
The most common mistake when shaving is the wrong direction of the blade, namely against hair growth. While this method can help you get rid of hair better, it puts your skin to the test. The risk of ingrown hairs increases. Therefore, it will be more correct to remove hairs in the direction of growth.
Choosing the best time
The time of day for the procedure also plays an important role. So, shaving in the evening before going to bed allows the skin to recover and rest overnight. While the procedure in the morning hours excludes such a possibility when it is done in a hurry, right before leaving the house. If you still had to do this in the morning, then wait at least 20 minutes before putting on tights. Clothing also injures the skin.
So, here's what you need to successfully shave your legs: quality cream / foam / liquid soap, a good razor with sharp blades, take your time and calmly implement the plan for the "beauty of women's legs"!
