Now the summer is here and those summery dresses and shorts are making there way out of the wardrobe. It's time to make sure that these legs of yours and as smooth as a babies bottom.
Before you shave you should always exfoliate your legs to get rid of any dead and dry skin off your legs. It will make it easier and create a nicer surface for the razor to do it's job. Using body scrubs on the skin is a prefect way of exfoliate the skin or using exfoliating gloves. I would recommend to any the Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Breakfast Scrub, it smells so good. Here's a link to it so you can check it out for yourself.
Always use shaving gel or cream when shaving and if not you should run out of shaving gel then use conditioner. It works a treat.
When it comes to razors go for ones that have a hydration strip on it. I personally go for male razors because they are designed to be use on the face and that the individual blades are closure together. Which will give you a cleaner shave and as well male razors are cheaper.
Changing your razor regularly has to be one of the biggest way to help with keeping your legs smooth. Old razors will cause you to have a nicks and razor burn on the skin.
Hydrating the skin is important post shave, remember to place a body cream that contains shea butter. Do this as soon as you get out the shower, don't do what I do which is sit in your towel for hours and then get yourself ready. Body oils are a prefect way to help the skin if you aren't into the moisturisers. I love using the Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Spray Moisturiser, it's so easy to apply and it sinks into the skin quickly.
I sometimes find it best to leave your leg hair to grow a little bit before shaving. Now when I say this I don't mean have a set of Chewbacca legs, just don't shave everyday if you are able too.
If you have any tricks to keeping your legs smooth then leave them as a comment below.
