Save yourself some precious time and minimise your beauty routine with these fast and effective hair removal products.
Let’s face it, we spend enough time as it is in front of the mirror – 182 hours a year on average goes into a woman’s beauty routine.
Someone with better maths than us calculated that to equate to a year and a half of your lifetime on primping, preening and plucking!
So be prepared and don’t let an out-of-control bikini-line ruin your spontaneous trip to the beach!
The fast and effective razor
Shaving is the quickest and easiest option when it comes to hair removal. However, it can leave your skin dry and sensitive, give you rashes, the occasional cut (if you’re not careful) and also requires shave gel or cream.
This is why it’s important ladies to invest in a good razor that glides effortlessly and smooths your skin whilst removing hair.
We recommend the Gillette Venus & Olay razor with built-in moisturising shave bars.
Five blades and skin conditioning Olay ingredients to give you a smooth glide and leave your skin super silky and soft.
The timeless trimmer
No one wants to walk around a lawned garden with un-trimmed bushes and hedges, so keep your ahem-lady-garden trimmed and neat with a stylish trimmer.
Veet has just released an exciting new tool called the Sensitive Precision Beauty Styler. It comes with two different sized heads for small or larger areas, trims to 0.5mm and is perfect for use on sensitive skin, not to mention it’s battery powered and compact so you can take it with you in your handbag for emergency touch-ups.
It comes with different sized combs so you can trim to your desired hair length, also the tiny trimming head is perfect for shaping and styling, even on your face. You can even trim your brows!
Gentle and precise shaving for your sensitive body parts.
The epic epilator
Yes, we know it’s not the most painless of methods of hair removal but it is also fast and effective and long-lasting. One new way to epilate that allows you to remove hair not only on dry skin but also wet, which means you can soothe your skin in the shower whilst you epilate. Plus, it’s another way to cut down your beauty regime by epilating whilst you shower!
We love the Babyliss Duoflex 770 cordless wet and dry epilator. Two times faster and two times more effective hair removal!
It comes with a foil shaver for a smooth finish, a smaller sensitive area attachment for precision hair removal and also a facial epilation attachment for any unwanted fine hairs.
The V shaped tweezers reduces the discomfort and maximises the hair removal coverage.
Fresh and fragrant hair removal cream
Hair removal creams; you either love them or hate them. If you haven’t mastered the art of using them (like myself) you can find them a very sticky and messy affair, not to mention the strange lingering smell that haunts you afterwards. However, if you get it right, they can be quick and easy to use, a lot less painful than other hair removal solutions and also gives you silky smooth hair-free skin for up to a week -twice longer than shaving.
We’re now hair removal cream-converts thanks to Veet hair removal cream with new silk and fresh technology.
This new hair removal cream not only removes hair, it also hydrates your skin for 24 hours and its new technology means that there is no nasty chemical after-smell.
The hair removal cream removes the hair from just below the skin’s surface, leaving the hair follicle with a rounded head so when hair regrowth occurs it feels softer.
IPL is for life, not just for Christmas
IPL also known as Intense Pulsed Light is no longer just a salon hair removal treatment; you can now DIY at home. There are many IPL devices on the market but our favourite is the Philips Lumea Prestige IPL. It isn’t cheap but think of how much money you will save in the long-run when you aren’t buying hair removal products monthly.
The IPL treatment is designed to reduce hair re-growth by flashing intense pulsed light at the hair’s root. This at-home IPL system is easy to use and pain free and gives you the longest lasting results of them all. You can use it as an on-going treatment so you have smooth skin everyday.
