Smooth legs in summer?! The most important tips for shaving without irritation

Tips for the Perfect Shave and Smooth Legs

Hey Beauty

Summer is here! And with it comes the daily shave. Do you have problems with it? Blemishes, allergic reactions, ingrown hairs, and the like? We’re here to help with tips to finally get smooth, beautiful legs!

1. The Basics

Before diving into the actual tips, let’s quickly review the basics.

Your razor:

  • Use disposable razors no more than twice
  • The more blades, the better the result
  • The less fragrance, the better for your skin, reducing the risk of blemishes
  • Razors with blades in both directions provide a more thorough result

2. Preparing Your Skin

Since you’re working on your skin and might occasionally nick yourself, ensure your skin is cleaned of bacteria before shaving.

Additionally, to avoid blemishes and ingrown hairs, exfoliate before each shave. This removes dead skin cells and reduces the chances of skin thickening. For your body, opt for mechanical exfoliants with scrub particles.

3. Tips for "After"

  • Rinse your skin with cold water after shaving. This soothes the skin and can close the pores.
  • Your skin needs moisture now. Avoid heavy creams. Instead, use a light and refreshing body spray. Ensure it contains natural fragrances and look for soothing, anti-irritant ingredients like MICROSILVER and SALICYLIC ACID. These prevent bacteria from causing pesky bumps and irritation.
  • It’s best to avoid wearing clothes on the shaved areas for a short time to prevent irritation. If that’s not possible, opt for loose-fitting clothes and avoid synthetic fabrics.
  • A few hours later, you can apply a body oil to nourish your skin, giving it a shiny, smooth appearance.

Step-by-step to the perfect shave! The absolute must-have for smooth, irritation-free legs is the RAU Silver Face & Body Spray. With Microsilver and Panthenol, it nourishes and soothes the skin while actively combating bacteria and irritation.
