How To: Smooth and Glowy Legs
Tips for Shaving:
Exfoliate your legs before you shave with a body exfoliator or a natural recipe. Try a mixture of white sugar and any oil.
Use a men’s razor for a closer shave.
Use a hair conditioner or baby oil gel with cocoa vaseline oil gel instead of a shaving cream.
After Shaving:
To reduce dry skin, look for products with petroleum or hyaluronic acid. After shaving, use a shave balm, like Men’s Nivea, and coconut oil to prevent razor bumps.
Apply Aveno daily lotion every night on your legs and feet.

4 mistakes you may be making while shaving:
1. The water is too hot. This can dry out your skin and cause irritation. Use cooler water instead.
2. Using a dull razor blade. You put yourself at risk of cutting yourself. Change your blade every 2-3 weeks.
3. Not rinsing the blade enough. The hairs that stick between the blades clog the razor.
4. Not storing your razor correctly. It should be in a dry spot. Wet blades will rust.
