Bump Free After Waxing & Shaving


You don't have to suffer with bumps after waxing or shaving.
There are things you can do to minimize the occurrence of these unsightly visitors.
So, what are these "things" you ask.

  1. Use the right product to cleanse the area you are waxing. The cleanser you use should rinse clean and leave no residue. Imagine squeaky clean, but not dry.
  2.  If you are prone to a histamine reaction (those little white pimple like bumps) after waxing, you might consider taking an oral anti-histamine before you wax and applying a topical anti-histamine after the service.
  3. Exfoliate! Exfoliate! Exfoliate!  I think you get the point. Use an exfoliating glove, cloth, or puff daily starting 2 days after you wax.  If you are a shaver, exfoliate daily.
  4. Use a serum.  There are serums out there to exfoliate delicate areas without being too harsh. Most also have ingredients to condition and hydrate the skin.
  5. If your skin is reactive and uncomfortable after waxing or shaving, use a product to cool and soothe the skin.
  6. Sometimes, even when you do everything right you can still have bumps and ingrown hairs.  In this case, spot treat each breakout.
