I've forgotten what I bought these for!

[Jiggy16]

Read a thread fairly recently about these eyebrow razor things but it was being recommended for exfoliating legs etc, so I went on and bought them and now can't find the thread, and can't remember how the op suggested to use them! Can anyone help?

Are they to remove dead skin and peach fuzz from your face

Yes they're for dermaplaning. Or eyebrow shaping.

[Jiggy16]

Yes that's their main use but this poster had said she was using them for her legs I think for exfoliating them?

[XiCi]

Wouldn't a normal razor do that? They're small and sharp and think there would be a danger of cutting yourself if you used them on your legs. The blades would blunt really quickly and snick you. They're generally used for small areas such as the face

Yes, I read that too...exfoliating before self tanning...think she said the amount of dead/dry skin that came off was unreal. Guess you just use it like the Hollywood Browser...short sharpish movements holding the tool at 45 degree angle I think...you'll have to Google it.

Her tan wasn't adhering to her shins I think

I've just found this, does that help? I've used them on my arms before but don't think I'd have the patience for legs

I use them for sticking up my nose to remove nostril hair.

That's exactly how I use them on my arms and legs. I find that they are also improving the look of the various scars I have there.

Oh great thank you for this, do u use them on dry skin? And do u go up the leg or work down?

I bought them on the back of that thread, too. The poster used them to get dry skin off her legs. I tried a small patch on my leg and yes, it worked. It took the fake tan off but I suspect that was hanging around unattractively on top of dry skin anyway.

My best success with the little razor thing was - carefully- using it on my dry, chapped , discoloured knees. I’ve been trying everything under the sun to exfoliate them but this is the only thing that’s worked.

That sounds really dangerous

[littlebite]

I just don't understand how they can be used on the face and you not ending up slicing a cheek off or something?!?

[Sisisimone]

You just use them on an angle littlebite. Its very easy, they just glide over. Lots of videos on YouTube if you wanted to watch first, just look up dermaplaning.
