Four Seasons of dramatically Smooth Legs

Shaving Myths Debunked

Tip 1

Should I shave less often in winter?

Mini-skirts may not be part of your winter wardrobe but smooth legs are in style year round. Remember that regular shaving helps keep skin healthy looking and exfoliated. Using a moisturizing shave gel like SatinCare instead of soap or water will minimize irritation and soothe dryness. Pair it with Venus Embrace. It has 5 blades surrounded by a ribbon of moisture.

I'm ready to hit the beach! What are some bikini shaving tips?

Shaving sensitive skin, like your bikini area, is easy if you remember some easy steps. Remember to wait 24 hours before sun exposure if you shave your bikini area to protect the sensitive skin. Bikini area hairs are naturally coarse, soak hair in warm water and apply a moisturizing shave gel like SatinCare Skin Soothing to help prevent bumps and burn. Hold skin taut so that it's level—like the skin on your legs. Shave in the direction of hair growth to shorten, then against the grain for closeness. Rinse the area in cool water to close pores.

Refillable systems or disposable razors-which is better for a great shave year' round?

You can't go wrong no matter what you choose! Of course, each has unique benefits to consider. A refillable system lets you try out all of the different blades Venus has to offer. The refillable system also provides a comfortable, soft grip handle which really lasts—great for the eco-conscious shaver. On the other hand, Venus Disposables have no assembly required and offer use-and-toss convenience for a fresh blade in an instant. For those on-the-go, a disposable razor means no worries if it gets left behind. A great idea: keep your favourite Venus razor with interchangeable blades at home and travel with Venus Disposables.

Shaving will make my tan fade faster.
Don’t listen to this old wives’ tale—you simply can’t shave off your tan. Actually, regular shaving can enhance your tan by sweeping away the top layer of flaky skin that hides your gorgeous glow.
 
Waxing won't cause ingrown hairs.
While waxing keeps legs smooth, it still can cause ingrown hairs. Whether waxing or shaving is your go-to hair removal method, starting with clean, exfoliated skin is the best way to prevent ingrown hairs.
 
Shaving leaves skin dry and flaky.
On the contrary—shaving is your skin’s best friend! Shaving helps skin feel smooth by whisking away your top layer of dead skin. Even better, Venus Vibrance is powered by gentle vibrations to sweep away dull dry skin.
