Depilation is even necessary in the summer. Then the skin is more exposed, so many women opt for treatments that will make the hair disappear for a long time.
No matter what form of hair removal you choose, whether it’s wax, sugar paste, or perhaps a hair removal cream or razor, it’s worth taking care of irritated skin after. How to soothe redness and make your body look great?
After depilation, irritation appears on the skin. This is as normal as possible reaction of the body to hair removal. As a rule, they are not long-lasting, but they do not look attractive, and they may even itch. The skin then becomes vulnerable and unpleasantly tightened. This needs to be remedied.
To begin with, it is worth properly preparing the skin for depilation. Depending on which method you decide on, it is worth taking all the precautions. If you shave your legs with the most commonly used method, that is, with a disposable razor, the whole process should be done wet. Shaving both legs, armpits or intimate areas “dry” can damage the skin and cause a very strong rash. Therefore, the basis is the use of shaving foam or soap, which will make the right glide on the skin.
As for the rest of the treatment, it is important that the hairs are the right length, and that the skin is thoroughly cleaned and dry before.
Immediately after depilation, the skin is sensitive and tight, so it is worth taking proper care of it. In this case, any soothing lotions and cosmetics that contain allantoin or D-panthenol or chamomile in their composition will be useful. Each of them has soothing and moisturizing properties, which will make the skin recover quickly and remain smooth and pleasant to the touch.
It is worth checking not only the presence of these ingredients, but also the natural ingredients in the formulation, which will make a huge difference. The fewer artificial elements inside the package, the faster your skin will recover. Keep in mind that right after depilation, red dots will be visible in its place, which will disappear on their own. This is nothing more than hair residue. It is also a good idea to choose hair removal treatments tailored to our skin type. That way their effect will not be too strong or too weak.
Home light hair removal products are also great. The skin then is not red for a long time, and the pain is described as 3 out of 10. This method is extremely effective and convenient. This is because you can perform it in your own home at any time, for example, while watching a TV series. It works wonderfully on different parts of the body.
After all these treatments, it will be equally important to restore the skin’s proper hydration. The sooner you apply moisturization after depilation, the sooner you will feel a clear relief and your skin will recover better.
