Breast Cancer Awareness: Venus Embrace

All three of us – my two daughters and myself – use the Venus Embrace razor. We like the moisture strips, the way they make a protective barrier on the skin when you shave. I believe it’s a safe choice for a new-shaver, like my youngest daughter, Sarah, to use.
I was sent a Special Edition Venus Embrace of the shaver in pink – pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. As usual, I love the razor.
The purpose of the pink razor is to remind you to conduct monthly self-breast exams in the shower. Why the shower? Well, it’s the easiest place …read more

All women and men who shave any part of their body have experienced the extremely unattractive and painful infection that is the ingrown hair. The ingrown hair is frustrating because once it occurs it is difficult to resolve without making the situation an even more unsightly and painful mess. A new product called PFB Vanish offers a new way to treat these annoying infections.
The condition of ingrown hairs is Pseudofolliculitis Barbae, or PFB. An ingrown hair occurs when a hair grows back into the follicle instead of out of the skin, which causes an infection that looks like a pimple …read more

It seems Smooth Away is not delivering what it promises to the customers. Like I said in my initial post regarding Smooth Away, I’ve seen it a lot on TV as one of those cool infomercial.

Pads are available in different sizes to use for different parts of the body such as the legs, armpit, upper lip, chin, eyebrows and whatever else you feel the need to shave . One other good thing about Smooth Away is that it supposedly exfoliates …read more
