Dear {NAME},
If I told you I shave my face every day, you probably wouldnât think anything of it.
But if I were to tell you that, letâs say, Marilyn Monroe did the same thing...
Youâd probably think I was pulling your leg, right?
Wrong!
Believe it or not, Marilyn was known to shave her famous face on a regular basis.
So did Elizabeth Taylor!
And today, it appears that more and more women are adopting this âmanlyâ grooming habit as well.
However, theyâre not doing it remove unwanted facial hairâ¦
Theyâre doing it to get glowing, radiant SKIN.
In fact, the technique has now become so popular, itâs even adopted a new (more beauty-friendly) name â dermaplaning.
But does it really work? And should you try it?
Well, Iâm not going to lieâ¦
While shaving your face might seem a little bizarre...
Itâs actually not a bad idea!
You see, a good sharp razor blade doesnât just remove hair â it also takes a TON of dull, dead skin cells along with it.
In other words, shaving is basically just a form of deep exfoliation.
Which is why many women notice a remarkably radiant, fresh, and rejuvenated-looking complexion right away.
Whatâs more, just like us guys, women actually have a light layer of hair on their faces as wellâ¦
Itâs just not always visible because it tends to be much lighter and finer.
However, when you REMOVE that seemingly undetectable peach fuzz, it can make your skin feel surprisingly smoother as a result.
So if youâd like to give facial shaving a try, here are a few important tips to keep in mind:
- Always start by cleansing your face thoroughly first, so you donât drag any germs or bacteria into your skin.
- Apply a warm, damp towel to your face for a couple minutes beforehand. This will help open your pores and soften your skin for even deeper exfoliation.
- Always use a sharp, CLEAN razor â and donât forget to disinfect it with rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide before and after every use.
- Donât use store-bought shaving creams! They might be okay for areas like your legs, but most of them are loaded with chemicals that are way too harsh for the delicate skin on your face. Instead, I would opt for a natural lubricant, like coconut oil or shea butter.
- Make sure you apply a soothing product like aloe vera immediately after to help reduce any redness and irritation. Then, follow with a high-quality non-comedogenic facial oil ([I highly recommend this one]() to help replenish your skinâs protective barrier. [This is actually something you should do every time you exfoliate â whether youâre using a razor or your usual exfoliating products!]
And remember, while facial shaving (a.k.a. dermaplaning) certainly works for some women â it might not be ideal for others.
No, not because it makes facial hair grow back thicker... thatâs a total myth :)
However, it can leave your skin overly exposed and sensitive right after...
It can also cause the formation of ingrown hairs in some people...
And when youâre working with razor blades, thereâs always a small risk of knicks and cuts.
So if you find this technique too irritating, or not suitable for your skin type⦠or just plain weird⦠thatâs okay!
Not everyone HAS to dermaplane. If your current exfoliation routine is working for you, just stick with it.
But if you suspect you could be getting an even better glow, go ahead and grab a razor.
After all, if Liz Taylor and Marilyn Monroe swore by this DIY beauty secret, itâs definitely worth a shot.Â

P.S. One final note on dermaplaning: you donât need to do it every day! For most women, once every 2 weeks should be enough to maintain that radiant, fresh-faced look.
