Invest in a safety razor and some blades and you will be set. Those 200 blades should last you for a decade unless you shave daily.
Im not kidding. Safety razor blades are mere pennies and the razor should last longer than you.
Truth. Around $20 for a decent razor, $11 for a box of 100 blades. Very good shave and 11 cents per refill.
Edit: Since everyone's asking what I have: WEISHI Nostalgic Long Handle Butterfly Open Double Edge Safety Razor https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PKHIDRA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_9pHzBb521CC24 only $16 now. Very happy with it, great quality. The butterfly opening costs a little more but is worth it for the quick and easy blade change.
Yeah I'd sometimes be in that dilemma for jobs and interviews, especially since I don't grow a full beard.
Do I keep my half-beard and look like a bum who lives with mom? or do I clean shave and look like I have leprosy on my face?
Turns out having a good shave regiment, the right razors, proper technique, and after-care products helps immensely, shoutout to /r/wicked_edge, and Tendskin
Probably will be buried.
Most people are posting about manscaping but I'd like to offer a method instead of just saying do it. I use a product called magic shave powder, link below. It's like Nair but won't fry your skin and will leave you porn-star smooth. Just add water, stir until it becomes creamy and apply to area for 5-10 minutes. Then just wash it off and watch the hair fall away. A trim before had would be best so you can get the cream onto the skin.
Trust me, it works amazingly. Link:

Check out the reviews on amazon (lots of dudes use on their face after shave to take care of redness, bumps, irritation and ingrown hairs).
I am a girl with serious ingrown hair issues (for years, shaving, waxing, laser.. everything), I found this at target and I swear my legs are starting to look like "normal" legs now, I apply with a cotton pad on dry skin after shower, I also apply a regular moisturizer after to fight the dryness of the product)
Btw, this smells very strong and do a patch test first! (Like, this is no joke stuff) Also, check out their website in case you are using any BHA/AHA or pretty much any acidic stuff to see how to be careful about that.
400 blades, $32

They last about a week, a good bit less than gillette cartridges - but they cost about eight cents each.
I use facial razors. I use it on entire face to get rid of the peach fuzz. They work well and exfoliate too. https://www.amazon.com/Schick-Multipurpose-Exfoliating-Dermaplaning-Precision/dp/B0787GLBMV/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=face+razors+for+women+peach+fuzz&qid=1611018338&sprefix=face+raxor&sr=8-3
Use Tend Skin Care Solution and then apply balmex. It will be cleared up pretty quickly. Do the 2 step process at night before you go to bed and put on underwear - it will be almost resolved overnight.
In the future, get your bum waxed.

If you buy them in bulk (100 pc), you can easily pay under $ 0.10 per blade (I like the Astra Platinum).
you definitely got the glowy pink look figured out! I think you did a great job on the eyeliner/shadow and wish i had a steady hand like you! I couldnt tell if you filled in your brows or not, but they do look a bit strong. if you are filling them in, consider doing it lighter next time-- or if im totally wrong and those are your natural brows, whatever just rock it!
Also if you feel up for it i would recommend trying a peach fuzz shaver/exfoliator to remove some fuzz and make your face smoother. Right now your powder seems to be clinging to the peach fuzz and making it stand out more than it should. I would totally recommend these face/eyebrow shavers on amazon and theyre great. Anyways, gently shaving with these is wonder, whether its your whole face or just the moustache area. It really helps and is easy to use.
anyways youre doing great!
Idk if it's something you're worried about but I personally bought some of these bad boys for peach fuzz and they're amazing!
Have you tried shaving your face? I know this sounds weird, but we usually have very fine hairs on our face and sometimes foundation sits weird on it. The areas you’ve mentioned are ones that can have longer/coarser hair and that may be why it’s clumping weirdly. They make facial razors like these that give you a little more precise control than a traditional razor.
Buy shaving powder on Amazon, mix it 1 to 1 with water and just coat your body, wait 15 minutes, it's gentle unlike Nair and doesn't burn, just wash off with a warm cloth and all the hair is gone, I'll post the Amazon link

Btdt. Not fun.
Did you use an actual razor? Like the standard for shaving legs? Bc that's where I went wrong. It's too big.

This is what I use now. I have an Amazon subscription. A pack a month. That way I'm not tempted to reuse them. It's amazing to see the dead skin flaking off. And the peach fuzz is crazy. I'm careful to cleanse afterward though bc it really opens pores and brings out all the gunk to the surface. I usually cleanse and do a deep sea mud mask after, then moisturize.
First, I hope your chemo is over and achieved it’s purpose and that things are going the right way! I do shave the peach fuzz off my face, which is another thing that started with menopause. I haven’t noticed a difference. What grows back is the same fuzz and same whiskers. That’s said, you could also try waxing?

Tend skin.

Buy on amazon or at target. You apply it every night over the area you shaved and it eliminates razor bumps. I have can’t live without it at this point as I shave completely as well.
I hate to be that guy but the best shave I have ever gotten is from a safety razor. When I first bought it I got a handle and a box of razors for a total of like $30. That was about 3 years ago. Try it, and you won't go back to disposables ever again.
Just use a safety razor. I shave once.a week. A 20$ box of blades is enough to last me 80 years.
Seriously it's like magic, I've never even nicked myself once.
My favorite review on Amazon goes "I shave my balls with one side and my face with the other. Its probably gross, and I don't care. It works well."
I replied to the above comment but if you're looking for one I got this on Amazon and it's extremely well made.
Recommending the Merkur Long Handle. Feather blades are great too. Super sharp though. Everyone has their preference.
8 ct pro Klinge ist nicht wirklich teuer und du bräuchtest auch nicht jeden Sticker damit bestücken. Für die Abschreckung reichte ja auch jeder zehnte oder zwanzigste o.ä.
I swear by these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0787GLBMV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_T1Z5PVAHZGFT0PDF7J0N
I've used them for over a year now. I don't even wax my eyebrows anymore! I have sensitive skin so I make sure I haven't done any exfoliation at least a few days beforehand. I cleanse my face first, and pull back all the hair I want to keep with a headband (I've accidentally gotten a little to close to my hairline once or twice). I use a mirror I can get really close to because #almost40yearoldeyes
I hold the razor at an angle and use small strokes, sloooowly. I try to just go section by section so I don't hit an area more than once. Be very careful not to go over any blemishes or beauty marks on your skin. Even if it's tempting to hit that zit that is healing and looking kinda dry... Don't do it!
Once I'm done I rinse my skin thoroughly and use a slightly heavier moisturizer than I would normally.
I can normally get two uses out of one razor. My skin is fairly dry and it is amazing (and kinda gross) how much dead skin comes off. I also have a lot of peach fuzz from being on steroids long term and it has made such a difference in the way my makeup looks and feels.

This is for the UK Amazon page so if you are outside of the UK remember to switch. I believe it's a US brand though.
I just use a body hair trimmer, I also heard of a powder you can leave on your skin for a few minutes to completely get rid of any hairs. As good as it is you should do a patch test before applying it all over.
I shave often to keep a clean look, my advice is to use a double edge shaving razor, personally I think it gives the closest shave. And remember to shave in every direction to get everything. Heres a link to a razor similar to what I use, you can also pick one up at a walmart supercenter
Tend skin is wonderful stuff. There are other similar products on the market. Just use them for a couple of days after you shave.

Ooooh I just found something on the holy grail product recs that I tried and found worked really well! It's called SoftSheen-Carson Magic Regular Strength Shaving Powder. It's targeted (I believe) towards African-American men who have sensitive skin and can't shave. It's a depilatory powder that you mix with water and spread over whatever area you want to remove hair from. It worked AMAZINGLY well on my legs & bikini area. Absolutely no sensitivity/tingling/redness/irritation and I haven't had any issue with ingrown hairs. The only issue is that it kind of smells? But honestly I didn't find it too bad (though I bought the yellow one which is labelled as "fragrant"). I found it at my local grocery store in the ethnic hair care section - it was less than $2. It's also available on Amazon.
Here's a link to the holy grail thread.
