I Used to Dread the Burn & Irritation From Shaving – Until I Found This Hack

You know what’s amazing? Rubbing together your just-shaved and lotioned legs on freshly cleaned bed sheets. You know what’s not amazing? Getting out of the shower with painful cuts and razor burn and needing to slap bandages all over your body until the irritation heals.

I love how smooth, shaved legs feel, or at least I love the thought of how they should feel. But I’ve never been able to achieve truly smooth, silky skin. Shaving always led to irritation, bumps, burning, and even cuts rather than glowing skin.

That is until I found a shaving bundle to hack my hair removal process. I saw the Truly Beauty products online, and while I worried they were too good to be true (how can someone’s skin look like pure silk?), I knew it was at least worth a shot.

Truly Beauty’s effective, not to mention gorgeous and amazing smelling, Smooth Legend shaving bundle has completely transformed shaving for me for so many reasons:

1. Adding a pre-shave scrub preps the skin for smooth shaving

With a name like Smooth Legend, I knew I could count on the pre-shave scrub to get my skin ready for a close, smooth shave. In addition to being a fun shade of pink, the addition of coconut in this scrub helps loosen hair follicles and scrub away dead skin. That means my razor won’t miss any spots or skip across my skin, leading to razor burn.

The scrub’s other ingredients, like vitamin E and grape seed extract, help improve my skin’s natural glow before I even start shaving.

2. A thick, creamy shave butter prevents my razor from skipping

I’ve always used standard, store-bought shave cream for hair removal, but what I was really missing was a shave butter. The texture is even thicker and creamier to help the razor glide along the curves and contours of my body without skipping a beat.

The inclusion of lavender not only makes this pretty shave butter smell amazing, but it is also anti-inflammatory and antibacterial to help prevent redness and irritation after each shave.

3. Double-blades get closer to the skin

Truly’s Life Shaver razor isn’t just cute, with its pink and gold design. The double blades mean I’m never finding a few spare hairs on my knees that I missed while shaving — these blades leave no hair behind. The flex-grip handle is easy and comfortable to hold and maneuver, too, so I don’t have to worry about accidentally cutting myself with an uncomfortable razor.

4. Finishing with a post-shave oil ensures glowy skin

When I’m done shaving, I want to look like a glazed donut. Instead, my skin has often been left red and bumpy, until I started using Truly Beauty’s Smooth Legend set. Each step of the kit leads to smooth, silky skin, but what really seals the deal is the Glazed Donut shave oil. This is way better than just slathering on some lotion after shaving.

The oil has passion fruit for skin rejuvenation and coconut and vitamin E to help minimize irritating ingrown hairs. Instead, my skin is left with a hydrating glow and a delicious scent.

Shaving is no longer a painful chore thanks to Truly’s bundle

I used to think silky, smooth skin was just reserved for glossy magazine pages and filtered social media posts. But thanks to Truly Beauty and their Smooth Legend bundle, I’m getting those same stunning results IRL.

You’ll save $64 when you get this 3-step shave kit bundle for $90 (or $81 if you subscribe). This bundle also comes with a cute fuzzy bag (worth $40) and a razor (worth $20), and there’s a 30-day money-back guarantee if you don’t love it! For me, I won’t go back to basic razors and shaving creams and the razor burn that comes with them; I’m sticking to my skincare savior, Truly.
