If you’re looking for a way to remove your facial hair at home, minus the sting of waxing or threading, try face shaving. Face shaving works for all hair textures and types, from coarse upper lip hair and sideburns to soft peach fuzz that grows on your cheeks. Before you whip out your razor, though, there are a few steps you need to take to ensure your skin stays clean and free of irritation. Below, we spoke to Joshua Ross, celebrity aesthician at SkinLab in Los Angeles, to find out how to properly prep your skin before face shaving. How to Shave Your FaceExfoliate Your Skin“I always recommend prepping your skin with a gentle exfoliant such as an enzyme cleanser before shaving your face,” says Ross. Exfoliating before shaving helps prevent ingrown hairs and gets rid of buildup and debris that could irritate your skin. Try the Dr. Barbara Sturm Enzyme Cleanser. For a drugstore exfoliant, we recommend the L'Oréal Paris 3.5% Glycolic Acid Cleanser.
