Hair removal is inevitably part of our daily live routine. Whichever method you use, there are a few key tips to note before and after removing body hair.
At Atlantia, we recommend an important daily skincare routine, especially after waxing, since skin that isn't properly cared for can become irritated, red, or in more extreme cases, even burned.
HAIR REMOVAL: BEFORE, DURING, AND AFTER
The first step toward healthy, hydrated, hair-free skin is exfoliation. It's best to take a warm shower to open the pores and gently massage the areas you'll be shaving with an exfoliating glove and mild soap, or directly with an exfoliating product.
Once that's done, hair will come off more easily, no matter which method you use to remove it: razor, hair removal cream, electric shaver, waxing, or laser. Finishing with a cold shower helps soothe the skin and close the pores back up, helping prevent infection.
The last and arguably most important step is moisturizing the shaved areas. This is where our Superdefense cream comes in: enriched with shea butter, pure aloe vera, and vitamin E, it helps strengthen the skin's natural defenses while nourishing and repairing it.
INSTANT RELIEF
Pure aloe vera provides almost instant relief after hair removal, thanks to its soothing, antiseptic, and regenerating properties, helping skin return to its natural state.
It also has anti-inflammatory properties, supports cell growth, improves circulation in the affected (shaved) areas, and deeply nourishes and hydrates all layers of the skin: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis.
Another great product for skin hydration is Atlantia's Pure Aloe Vera Gel. As a 100% natural, organic product, it protects and nourishes the skin, helping repair any irritation that may occur.
