Don't shave for at least 2-to-3 days to give your razor bumps a chance to heal & go away.
If you must shave…
Use a Depilatory Cream or waxing for hair removal to prevent razor bumps.
Apply heat on your razor bumps for 5-to-10 minutes using a hot compress or washrag soaked in hot water to shrink the razor bumps and kill any germs that'll make your razor bumps
look worse.
Put hydrocortisone cream on your razor bumps to get rid of the redness, inflammation and the itching.
Once your razor bumps fade away in 1-to-3 days… Stop using the hydrocortisone cream because your skin may develop rashes if you use it too much.
Wear cotton underwear or breathable clothing because wearing clothes made out of synthetic materials won't allow your skin to breathe.
This traps in bacteria
& sweat making your razor bumps get worse.
Don't pick your razor bumps and don't rub the areas of your skin with razor bumps because
you'll slow down the healing process that makes razor bumps fade away.
You can use a cucumber and milk mask by mixing ½ a pureed cucumber and a ¼ cup of milk and then letting it cool in your refrigerator and then
apply to your razor bumps for 10-to-20 minutes.
Put cornstarch on your razor bumps for 20 minutes and then rinse it off.
Use razor bump removal products like Razor Bump Relief with
Witch hazel & Salicylic acid as the main ingredients.
The most important way to prevent
razor bumps while shaving is to soften up your skin with shaving cream or warm water before you shave.
Don't use the fancy razors with more than 2 blades because they
lift and snap your hair back into place.
Don't use old razors that are dull & dirty which will
cut & irritate your skin making you get razor bumps.
Use an antiseptic like
Tea Tree Oil after shaving to prevent any infections &
razor bumps.
Stop rubbing your face and don't pick at or try to pop your razor bumps
because this will make your razor bumps look worse.
Use a Depilatory Cream to remove facial or any body hair
without shaving to prevent razor bumps.
For Getting Rid of Bikini Bumps,
1. Use Proper Shaving Technique
Do not shave against the grain.
Always start with the bikini area first while
the blade is the sharpest before moving to the less sensitive leg
areas.
Soften up the skin before you shave with a shaving gel made for the bikini area like
Bikini Zone Anti-Bumps Shave Gel,
warm water or a warm rag for minutes.
2. Use New Blades
When dealing with your sensitive bikini area… Don't use dull blades that'll cut your skin
and don't use old blades that contain germs.
Wear cotton underwear or breathable clothing because clothes made out of synthetic materials won't allow your skin to breathe.
This also traps bacteria & sweat making your razor bumps get worse.
After you've finished shaving your bikini area… Use an aftershave like Lidocaine
to kill any germs that may cause bikini bumps.
