Silky smooth.
With the changing of seasons (hi, sun) comes warmer temperatures and the opportune time to break out all your spring dresses, shorts, and skirts. Although you might welcome the warmer days ahead, have you thought about your hair removal options? While there’s absolutely no reason that you *have to* remove you body hair, if you do decide to go that route it can be a pain, both in application and finding the right products to successfully get the job done — not to mention time-consuming, expensive, and potentially irritating (especially if you incorporate retinoids into your skin care routine). Enter: at-home hair removal products.
Sure there are countless in-office laser hair removal treatments that utilize light technology to zap away unfavorable hair, the reality is, it’s not exactly the cheapest option, with average treatments costing around $250 per session, depending on location. That’s why keeping your bathroom stocked with quality at-home options is key.
Whether you’re looking to temporarily or permanently get rid of hair on your face or body, there’s a whole host of products out there to try that gently remove unwanted hair without the redness or irritation. There's dermaplaning tools that work to not only remove dead skin cells but also that pesky peach fuzz from your face and upper lip as well. There are at-home waxing kits to meet each person’s comfort level — and so many more products to make hair removal more accessible to all.
