Waxing is a chore ... so I admit that I often shave my legs :-)

Not only does it go faster and it hurts less, it's also cheaper!

To shave my legs, I used to use a commercial gel like Gillette Venus.

But I quickly realized that it is full of chemicals and synthetic fragrances. A horror !

Fortunately, I found a Super effective and 100% natural shaving gel recipe.

Don't worry, this shaving gel is super easy to make and really inexpensive. Look :

What you need

- 50 ml of liquid soap (type Aleppo or Marseille)

- 50 ml of sweet almond oil

- airtight glass jar

- whisk

- a few drops of lavender essential oil

How to do

1. Mix the soap and the oils.

2. Stir gently, but constantly so that the two products mix well.

3. Add a few drops of essential oil if you wish.

4. Mix with a whisk until you obtain a gel texture, and the mixture is homogeneous.

5. Then, put everything in a disinfected glass jar that closes tightly.

Results

And There you go ! Your 100% natural homemade shaving gel is already ready :-)

Easy, natural and economical, isn't it?

To apply it, first wet your skin, then put some product on the skin.

Then all you have to do is rub to lather and shave.

Its gel texture will facilitate the use of the razor. And all this, without toxic products.

In addition, it makes legs very soft! You will love to use it.

Additional advice

If you are used to an even more "gel" texture, you can add cornstarch to thicken the mixture.

Always shave with the grain to avoid ingrown hairs.

This homemade shaving gel can be stored in the airtight jar in the fridge for several months.

To keep it clean, avoid putting your fingers in it, but take the gel with a wooden spatula.

Why does it work?

Sweet almond oil makes the razor glide, preventing micro-cuts.

In addition, it nourishes the epidermis of the skin to prevent the skin from becoming dry.

Lavender essential oil is soothing and will calm razor burn. It is also healing in case of micro cuts.

As for the soap, it foams and lets you know where you are going when shaving.
