I had all the stuff to do this but was still hesitant to try it. After watching this video I took the plunge. And WOW! My makeup goes on so much better. The feeling is amazing.
What a great video Bobbi. I have shaved my face several times but didn’t know which any to use the blade. This is so helpful. Gotta get the Elf product, razors and ordinary oil. Can’t thank you enough!
You are very cute… when I had a pixie cut and I said to my hairdresser “ look how long my hair is “ it’s all relative, right? I think you are very honest. Also, how lucky are you that your daughter wants to vacation with you.
I just use a regular 3 blade shaver. It's already on an angle and works great. I'm a natural blond turning white and I just have peach fuzz only I can see but I know it's there! I do it every other week and like you, at night. I only want good stuff to go on my face after that. I don't want to be putting my make up and stuff on after I've done it!
Designated for MY FACE ONLY Gillette Mach3 Razor in shower with cerave or cetaphil gentle cleaners every other night. Rinse razor with alcohol and dry after each use . Replace blade as needed. Love it! P.S. I also us Tretinoin 0.05% five days a week
Hi Bobbie I have really reactive skin with both rosacea and eczema. My top tip is to use a sheet mask afterwards, but it has to be the right one. The Benton centella rescue redness relief sheet mask is my favourite for this, but as long as it's a very soothing mask you like then it should be fine (no fragrance or actives in the sheet mask). I can't use any acids or other actives for at least 24 hours afterwards and only a mineral spf the next day, but my skin is very hyper sensitive. i've been shaving my face for many years and it does make the makeup look so much better, especially if you have dry skin anyway. Best wishes.
I use this one too and have never experienced any irritation. It works really well and much easier and safer to use than shaving with a razor. Lots of fuzz comes out when I clean it so I know it’s getting all my fuzzies.
Great video! Thank you! Versed At home dermaplaning kit is wonderful. You can reuse the replacement blade 3-4 times and the price to me is reasonable. $9.99 for three replacement blades but again you can reuse 3-4 times. They do last….it’s what I use😊
@@MindfulMidlife I ordered from versed online. I believe the kit is around $24 and it comes with the handle and three blades. Then you could order extras and you may have enough for free shipping. I always look for a coupon or sale and sometimes they will give you that first purchase discount. The handle is bigger but very light and easy to handle. It’s really worked well for me and I get 4 uses per blade. I also think there may be a video reviewing it on RUclips if I remember right. Thank you again for your videos. I really do enjoy them😊
I get a bit rough sometimes and will nic my face once in a while. Never shave your face when you’re in a hurry. It won’t end well. 😂 I will have to try the exfoliate after shaving.
All great tips Bobbie! I've been wanting to try this as my peach fuzz is getting longer and longer 😂 Still a bit chicken to try it out, but confidence is growing and this video really does help. Thanks for sharing!
Hi! I’m new to your channel. I loved and just learned so much about shaving. Being a Latina I have hair on my face but it’s not bad and for some crazy reason it’s just happened recently… IDK why? Looking forward to your next video. ✨🌼
Hello. First, I have been watching your videos for about 2 weeks. I love them 😊 You have such a sweet and positive attitude. Even if the topic is unrelated to me I still enjoy watching just to boost my spirit. Second, I am finally going to take the plunge into the face shaving world. I am one of those who is nervous about the hair growing back thicker and darker. Thank you for your videos and have a blessed day ❤️
THANK YOU so much Bobbie, I have just purchased Elf Exfoliant from one of your other videos and LOVE it ! you are a life saver, I have dry but oily skin by the end of my day and find that I want to exfoliate every day as I always seem to have the texture of dead skin on my face especially on my forehead, does that makes sense? My skin feels so renewed after using Elf, I also have fine facial hair and am going to try and shave my face. I have The Ordinary in my skin care collection now and going to try the Rose Hip Oil. Thank you and so happy I found your channel ! you rock girl !! I always looks forward to your next video ! You certainly know how to hit home on a lot of my skin issues
Thanks for sharing such details!! I have a good bit of facial hair and really need to shave mine but I'm so nervous it will come back even thinker and more course, like my legs!! LOL!
Your facial hair isn't the same. I've never heard of anyone having it come back thicker or more. Keep in mind when it starts to come back it may look thicker but it's not, it's just cut so it appears thicker, but only to you.
Thank you so so much for such an informative video! You are truly so easy to watch listen to and I really learned so much… I had watched others that said to wet your face 😳 I’m so glad I found you before I start the process ❤
Thank you for sharing this information on shaving. I will definitely take your advice. I’ve had some issues and I think it’s because my face wasn’t dry. Have a great weekend and God Bless! ❤️
I used to use a Michael Todd sonic facial derma planning tool till it died. Now I use a little Clipper listed on Amazon as an eyebrow trimmer. It uses a AAA battery, and completes the exfoliation and hair removal at the same time. Safer than razors, and can be cleaned with alcohol after use. I rarely have any irritation after use. But I wonder if aloe would help the irritation if needed?
Great video Thank you so Much! I do have one question talking about wrinkles on the face.What is a good eye cream for wrinkles under the eyes? I am 52 and want to buy some cream but not sure what to buy that really works and does not cost a small fortune.Any help would be greatly appreciated THANKS.
They have the exfoliate in a tube now. I use nothing but elf products. Can you do a skin care routine based on elf products? What works, what doesn’t etc.
I love the look after shaving but the tip is always so sharp - I’ve started putting a drop of nail polish on the tip. Idk if it actually works but I haven’t cut myself since I started doing this. I reuse my blades and clean them just as o I do my leg razors. Maybe the Schlick blades aren’t sharp at the tip?
Thanks for the video! We need to normalize women having hair on their bodies. If it wasn’t supposed to be there, it wouldn’t be there 😄. We shouldn’t be ashamed of it but if we choose to remove it, it’s good to know how to do it properly!
I'm curious. You were shaving your forehead, something I've never considered as I don't really see any hair or peach fuzz. Given that you're not a hairy person, is it necessary to shave the forhead?
Thanks so much for this! I discovered those razors a while ago but I will admit I reuse and don't disinfect. You mentioned using alcohol to disinfect, any particular suggestions?
I was always taught to never shave your face as a child but I have to say it's the best thing for the face. It makes your makeup go on so flawless and it help actives sink in. Of course, only use actives later in the week and definitely don't use a gycolic acid to exfoliate never actives the night of. If you do I doubt you ever do it again,lol because it will burn to the high heavens.
Thank you! I have been wanting to try it and your video was very helpful.
I had all the stuff to do this but was still hesitant to try it. After watching this video I took the plunge. And WOW! My makeup goes on so much better. The feeling is amazing.
Great video! I have light hair on my face but when I look in the mirror in the car out in the sunlight I can see it has grown back after a few days🥴
Oh lawd! I haven’t been doing a lot of these things. Thank you for doing this video 😁
What a great video Bobbi. I have shaved my face several times but didn’t know which any to use the blade. This is so helpful. Gotta get the Elf product, razors and ordinary oil. Can’t thank you enough!
Glad it was helpful Karen! Happy Shaving!

Same here. It is less complicated and so easy to do it that way.

Thanks for the tip. I've never tried those masks. I'll look them up! Thanks Loraine!
I use the Benton Fermentation Eye Cream & love it. I’ll have to check out their masks. Thanks ! ☺️
I use the flawless finishing touch facial remover
I use this one too and have never experienced any irritation. It works really well and much easier and safer to use than shaving with a razor. Lots of fuzz comes out when I clean it so I know it’s getting all my fuzzies.
Ok, I'll look into it. Thanks

I also have that. I found the blades to be a bit to big around smaller areas of the face.
I get a bit rough sometimes and will nic my face once in a while. Never shave your face when you’re in a hurry. It won’t end well. 😂 I will have to try the exfoliate after shaving.
Agreed! Speed and Shaving isn't a good mix.
I am so glad you posted this. I ah e been wanting yo get i to shaving regularly but wasn’t quite sure what all I needed to know. Yay You!!! Thanks! 🤗
Glad it was helpful!
Well I learned something, not to shave a wet face. I do understand the benefits of doing this, just haven't tried it yet. Thanks Bobbie.
All great tips Bobbie! I've been wanting to try this as my peach fuzz is getting longer and longer 😂 Still a bit chicken to try it out, but confidence is growing and this video really does help. Thanks for sharing!
You can do it Barbara 😉 !
I did it and it’s the best thing I ever did!

I've been shaving my face for a while but learned some new tips I will incorporate in my routine. I wish that elf exfoliator was fragrance free. 😏

I'm so grateful that you are here !
Great advice Bobbie! Facial hair removal is an ongoing problem for me.

Great video Bobbie! Best one I have seen on shaving
This video is very helpful! Thank you! Also, can you please tell me where your black dresser is from?
Thank you for sharing this information on shaving. I will definitely take your advice. I’ve had some issues and I think it’s because my face wasn’t dry. Have a great weekend and God Bless! ❤️
Great video. Ordered the Elf
Great tips! 👍🏼👏🏼

P.S.
The Clippers usually cost about $10.00 - very economical for multiple uses!
Thank you Ginger! I'll look it up!

I am 52 and want to buy some cream but not sure what to buy that really works and does not cost a small fortune.Any help would be greatly appreciated THANKS.
Honestly...I don't use an eye cream right now. I have used this one: howl.me/chRhD9fx4eR It has good ratings and it didn't irritate my eyes.
Thanks for the video!
They have the exfoliate in a tube now. I use nothing but elf products. Can you do a skin care routine based on elf products? What works, what doesn’t etc.
Wow, I had no idea! I haven't seen that or maybe I missed it! Yahoo! Thanks for the info!
Thanks Bobbie, great advise on face shaving ! ☺️☺️
Hi Bobbie! Great video and great tips. How often do you shave your face? Thanks so much!
Thanks for all the very helpful tips!❤️
Very informative video. Thank you!
I love the look after shaving but the tip is always so sharp - I’ve started putting a drop of nail polish on the tip. Idk if it actually works but I haven’t cut myself since I started doing this. I reuse my blades and clean them just as o I do my leg razors. Maybe the Schlick blades aren’t sharp at the tip?
i use japonesque disposable blade i really like them.and ive made the mistake of shaving my face in the shower on a wet face not good lol.
Why do we now grow a big coarse hair coming out of our chin? My mother didn't have this and neither did her mother.
Thanks for the video! We need to normalize women having hair on their bodies. If it wasn’t supposed to be there, it wouldn’t be there 😄. We shouldn’t be ashamed of it but if we choose to remove it, it’s good to know how to do it properly!
I agree, if a woman wants to have hair then they should feel it's ok.
I'm curious. You were shaving your forehead, something I've never considered as I don't really see any hair or peach fuzz. Given that you're not a hairy person, is it necessary to shave the forhead?
It's not for the hair so much, but for the dead skin. I go very lightly - there's not much cushion on your forehead.
I just can't bring myself to do it.
Thanks so much for this! I discovered those razors a while ago but I will admit I reuse and don't disinfect. You mentioned using alcohol to disinfect, any particular suggestions?
No suggestions. I just buy whatever is at the drugstore or Walmart.
I'm afraid to shave my face! I know women do, but I still wax & tweeze it! And I'm getting tons of chin whiskers at 60😵
ONCE YOU SHAVE , YOU HAVE TO KEEP ON SHAVING ? How does it grow back ? To risky .
It will grow back to what it originally looked like! I promise-no beard! 🤗
❤❤❤
I have never heard of women shaving their face before.
I have never shaved my face…..question = is this a falsehood? - that the hair will grow back heavier?????
It won’t!!! Old wives tale!
I will never shave my face no way 😂
Aren't you afraid of making whiskers all over your face
I've shaved for over 3 years. My hair is exactly the same.
Single use razors are so bad for the environment!
What are you using?
Agreed…what do you use?
I was always taught to never shave your face as a child but I have to say it's the best thing for the face. It makes your makeup go on so flawless and it help actives sink in. Of course, only use actives later in the week and definitely don't use a gycolic acid to exfoliate never actives the night of. If you do I doubt you ever do it again,lol because it will burn to the high heavens.
So true! Ouch!
I made that mistake once, shaving and then using glycolic, never again. WOW! Did that ever burn.
