Revitalise & Renew: Body Scrub

The FFS Beauty Guide to Luxurious Leg Care: Shaving & Scrubbing

Sliding freshly shaved legs together, one wonders if there's anything softer. Indeed, there is – legs that are both shaved and scrubbed.

Using a body scrub alongside shaving can yield the softest legs imaginable. But, should you scrub before or after shaving, and how often should you exfoliate?

Here's what we recommend on integrating a body scrub into your leg care routine.

Shave, Then Scrub, or Vice Versa?
Both shaving and scrubbing are excellent for leg care, but their order is crucial for achieving silky smooth legs.

The rule is simple: scrub before shaving on days you plan to shave, and scrub occasionally on non-shaving days.

Here's why:

Scrubbing Pre-Shaving: Removes dead skin cells, enabling a closer shave and reducing razor burn by keeping the razor sharp and unclogged.

Scrubbing Between Shaves: Keeps skin clean, minimises pore clogging, and prevents ingrown hairs.

Five Steps for Sublimely Soft Legs Incorporate a body scrub into your routine with these easy steps for the smoothest shave:

1. Warm shower water to open pores.
2. Apply and gently scrub in a circular motion.
3. Rinse, then apply shaving cream, we recommend FFS Beauty’s Moisturise & Glide: Shave Cream
4. Shave against the hair grain, rinsing the razor frequently.
5. Rinse, dry, and immediately moisturise (try a combination like FFS Beauty’s Revitalise & Renew Body Scrub followed by a dry skin preventative and saver like FFS Beauty’s Repair & Soothe: Body Cream).

On non-shaving days, follow steps 1, 2, and 5.

The Benefits of Scrubbing and Shaving Using a body scrub not only removes dead skin cells but also aids in new cell regeneration.

Regular use, about 2–3 times a week, can:

• Reduce clogged pores
• Prevent ingrown hairs
• Enhance moisturiser absorption

For leg shaving, the reasons go beyond hair removal. Shaving also helps in skin care by removing dead skin cells, revealing newer, healthier-looking cells.

For the best results, use a body scrub like FFS Beauty’s Revitalise & Renew Body Scrub, with ingredients like:

• Infused with salicylic acid for natural exfoliation and cleansing, leaving your skin feeling refreshed and revitalised.

Remember, body exfoliators should not be used on the face due to the difference in skin thickness and cell turnover rates.
