OMG, this is amazing - I need someone else to try it!

You know those face razor things you can get to dermaplane your face at home?

I did my face as usual, then absentmindedly did a bit of my leg..... it was AMAZING!!!

I thought I was exfoliating quite well as did those mitt things and a scrub once a week, but I clearly bloody wasn’t! The skin and fuzz and just general crap that came off just from a small section has made my day!

Maybe this should be in sporners, I’m not sure, but my leg is so soft and it just looks shinier and better some how.

Please someone else try it so I can share this wonder! (Or tell my my legs must be super yuck and yours are all normal and nothing happened!)

Thanks op. I’ve been thinking I need to sort my peach fuzz

FuckWhenDidIGetOld · 19/12/2019 22:55

Thanks Grin

That wasn't even everything. Just the bits that I managed to not drop straight into the sink!

I have to say I was hooked. Would love to do it again! Now!

I'm not sure about regrowth but my skin feels the same now as after I had microderm and I didn't have any stubble after that.

Immediately afterwards I slapped on my usual night cream and parts of my face felt a bit inflamed and hot so I was worried...!

But all settled nicely overnight and not a mark anywhere to be seen.

My face is quite bumpy even though I've been told by lots of professionals that I have "good skin" but it never feels totally flat. I'll give it a go again and see what else appears.

Keep your 👀 peeled!*

This is such a great thread Grin

Does boots sell this? I’m off there now

Writersblock2 · 20/12/2019 11:46

I may have ordered some of the blades off Amazon now...Grin

CheddarCheesy · 20/12/2019 17:27

My blades have been delivered! I'm so excited to give this a go...

Snooks1971 · 20/12/2019 18:09

I remember reading about these babies a few years ago but chickened out and didn’t purchase.

This thread has convinced me to buy - thank you OP!

They are due on Xmas Eve. Come on Santa! Xmas Smile

@Bjorksswandress
Can you link the you tube tutorial?

Blueradish · 21/12/2019 21:28

Ohyesiam

I don’t know how to link videos but the channel is called Raquel From Inside Out and the video is called ‘How To Shave Your Face/An Esthetician’s Guide.

She waffles on a while so the actual info about shaving starts at 4:50.

Blueradish · 21/12/2019 21:29

Sorry it’s Bjorkswandress with a name change!

runwithme · 21/12/2019 22:29

I've taken the plunge and ordered some. Has anyone tried these on the underarms? Looking for the holy grail of underarm hair removal

ihatethecold · 22/12/2019 13:38

Mine have arrived. I’m scared!!

Ninjakittysmellz · 22/12/2019 13:40

Don’t be scared! If I can do it, any one can!

Which bit of you are you going to start with?! I’m going to try armpits later @runwithme.... not so much for hair removal, but for a proper exfoliation!

I’ve collected mine today from an amazon pick up point.

Can’t wait to do my face tonight! I’ve done one lower arm so far and amazed at that. How regularly do you use them on your face?

I’m going to shave my legs tonight then go over tomorrow with this.

FuckWhenDidIGetOld · 09/01/2020 18:00

How did everyone else get on? I can feel fuzziness again so I think I'll attack my face again very soon Grin

Ninjakittysmellz · 09/01/2020 19:55

I need to do my face again too. Going to attempt my legs as well again as the results were SO good last time.

Glad this thread inspired so many others to try it too - I’m such an enabler Grin

Ooohh need to try! Ive bought a veet dermaplaner, its bloody brilliant and better than the eyebrow razors i was using and no skin irritation

georgialondon · 09/01/2020 20:34

I bought them especially just to try it on my leg and nothing came off. I'm so disappointed!

Wonderingwhyme · 15/01/2020 13:52

I have the WORSE peach fuzz face. What is the regrown like please?? Sensitive skin here, I reckon I’ll end up with shave rash and spots!

Honsandrebels · 16/01/2020 04:35

The regrowth is nothing to be scared of, I hesitated for a long time to use on peach fuzz due to fear of making it all worse or having stubble, but it is fine.
Used the micro blade on my arm trying to smooth a patchy fake tan and was blown away but exfoliating potential. Must try on legs!

Wonderingwhyme · 16/01/2020 06:27

Has anyone done this on their face more than once?! I’m too scared, as above, in case I end up with rashes and spots!

Sheusedtobesomeonelse · 16/01/2020 11:11

I have just ordered some of these and am going to give it a go!

Since i turned 40 last year - literally, the week after - the peach fuzz started growing on my face and i have been wondering what to do with it, i'll give this a go at the weekend.. but will i feel like aman shaving ???!! what do you d ofirst? wet or dry skin?
Less nervous but more excited to try it on my knees Grin

Thesuzle · 18/01/2020 22:54

Ladies, i recommend a Margaret Dabbs foot file, sturdy and the extra sandpaper sticky things last ages
