I know, not the most glamorous subjects, is it? But regardless, I'm someone that sadly gets quite a few ingrown hairs. And if you're a member of the ingrown hair club like myself, then you'll know how horribly painful they can be; not to mention that they certainly don't look pretty. I've been really focusing on minimising the amount of ingrown hairs on my body recently and since religiously using this routine, they've almost disappeared altogether.
I start by applying a small amount of the Boots Smooth Care Ingrowing Hair Minimiser - £9.25 to my legs a few hours before I know I'm going to be shaving. This gel uses AHA's to gently exfoliate the skin and prevent new ingrown hairs from forming. It also contains Chamomile and Honey which help to soothe and nourish the skin. I also apply this after shaving to calm the skin down and help prevent ingrown hairs further. To aid with shaving, I use the RazorPit Bump Foam* - £11.95 which is pricey but incredible. Packed with active ingredients, this shaving foam prevents razor burn, razor bumps and ingrown hairs. It contains no parabens, perfume and colourants and can be used on the entire body. The consistency isn't that of a traditional shaving gel/foam, instead it's thin and soap-like which is strange at first, but it works.
Both of these two products together have done a wonderful job at preventing ingrown hair and like I mentioned earlier, it's rare I suffer any more. Both of the products together are pricey, but if you've ever experienced the pain, discomfort and ugliness of ingrown hairs then you'll know that they're without a doubt worth the price tag. I personally know that I'll never go back to traditional shaving foam.
