Ah, the dreaded bikini line rash.
The worst thing to happen, especially during summer time when you might actually be hopping into a bikini or swimsuit for your holiday.
We've shared some techniques in the past which suggested that
shaving in the right direction can eliminate the chance of a bikini rash and also making sure that your razor has no sign of rusting.
But Reddit user,
TheBlackPajama, who is a dancer, has shared her tips and they're pretty helpful.
Her technique involves these steps:
- First thing you need to do is exfoliate the area. After that, she advises that you rub it with baby oil to soften the hair and skin.
- Next is the actual shaving, which she says you should use a men's razor for, so one with four blades, and also use men's moisturizing shaving cream.
- After you shave she says to use some rubbing alcohol on the skin, which will kill the bacteria and close your pores.
- Finally, you apply some unscented deodorant to the area, which keeps you dry in the area and prevents chaffing and razor bumps.
Speaking about her technique she said:
"Mine was always flawless, I was a dancer for four years and did this almost daily. I posted this same routine under my old account and I got TONS of messages in my inbox with girls thanking me for their blemish-free pies."
