Bikini Bumps? Not on my watch!
Thursday, March 20th, 2008
There are two things that super-glamorous women do frequently: get their nails done, and visit a bikini-waxer (or a bikini-laserer, for the super-glamorous techie women out there). I do neither of these things, and so therefore am hopelessly unglamorous, doomed to roam the earth cursed by raggedy cuticles and stubble in weird places. Sorry, but I just can’t be bothered! Why spend time mindlessly grooming random parts when you could be out exploring the world? Making a difference! Doing something with your life! (Or…er…watching Gossip Girl. Only after making a difference and doing something with your life, of course.) Being lazy about my nails is usually fine; I’ll trim them down every couple of weeks and be done with it. Not having the patience to go through the whole bikini-process of “growing it out only to immediately get it waxed,” however, I long ago decided to make good friends with my razor. It’s easier…but not necessarily on my skin. (Razor burn? Ingrowns? Yeah. Not fun.) I just discovered Prince Reigns, an all-natural ingrown-hair serum, and without getting too–ahem–into it, it’s definitely made a difference. (That is to say, smooth and no bumps, yay!) The website is pretty interactive, with a chart comparing it to other anti-bump brands. Check it out here.
