Their skincare line is formulated to help you say goodbye to dark spots ingrown hairs, and irritation. Whether you trim, groom, remove – or let your body hair grow, you will feel confident in your skin down there and everywhere with results that you will see and feel.

Here are some tips to keep your skin smooth and hair-free:

1. Exfoliate Regularly

Gentle exfoliation removes dead skin cells and helps prevent hairs from becoming trapped under the skin. Use a natural exfoliant, such as a sugar scrub or a product with alpha-hydroxy acids.

Try: Bushbalm's Dark Spot Exfoliating Scrub - This natural, plant-derived formulation helps exfoliate and soften the skin, with sugar and jojoba seed oil, all while reducing the appearance of dark spots. Plus is smells fantastic!

2. Moisturize Daily

Hydrated skin is less likely to trap hairs. Choose a product with soothing ingredients with a formula that is safe to use everywhere on the body, even in the most intimate areas.

Try: Bushbalm's Ingrown Hair + Pre-Post Wax Oil  - Formulated to soften skin, reduce the appearance of redness, ingrown hairs and razor bumps seen after shaving or waxing.

3. Use the Right Tools

Opt for a sharp, clean razor and shave in the direction of hair growth. For waxing, ensure the wax isn't too hot and use clean strips.

4. Avoid Tight Clothing

Tight clothing can irritate the skin and cause ingrown hairs. Choose loose-fitting, breathable fabrics, especially after shaving or waxing.

5. Soothe and Treat

If you notice any ingrown hairs, treat them with a topical, like an ingrown hair patch, soothing serum or antiseptic, and avoid picking or squeezing to prevent infection and scarring.

Try: Bushbalm's Roller Rescue Ingrown Hair Soothing Serum - Formulated with Aloe Vera, Witch Hazel, and AHA/BHAs, this lightweight serum gently soothes redness, smooths rough texture, helps visibly clear pores. With an easy-to-use stainless steel rollerball applicator for a cooling effect.
