When I was sent this duo from Bikini Soft, I was super iffy on it. It's just a bottle of oil, how good can this mess be??? And while I love the crap out of it for shaving the swimsuit/no no areas and legs, the true testament came from shaving my armpits. Here's a little back story on my 'pits (whether you want to hear it or not). I have always, since the dawn of shaving said underarms time, had an issue with razor burn/bumps on the armpits. No matter what I've used, it always happens. But that sh*t is completely gone after using this stuff. Insanity. And to use the smooth shave oil, just put a few drops in your hands and apply to wherever you're shaving. After you've finished, you dry off your razor and use the razor saver to increase the longevity of your razor. Bikini Soft also has a razor recycling program, where you can send your old ass razors to be recycled. Captain Planet would totally approve.

Are you ready for the closest shave ever? I love how quickly shaving can be, but I usually suffer from irritated, red skin and ingrown hairs afterwards. Alas, I must admit, I sometimes forgo the shaving cream and just use soap (I know, tsk-tsk). Luckily, the wonderful people at Bikini Soft sent me over some samples of their Smooth Shave Oil and Razor Saver Oil (both $14.99).
I used to use olive oil and/or baby oil on my legs before I shaved — this would provide a protective barrier against any irritation from using my razor. But, regular olive oil was just too expensive and the baby oil would gunk up my razor, resulting in me throwing it out and spending a lot of money on refills.
The Bikini Soft Smooth Shave Oil contains a blend of safflower, sunflower, grapeseed, jojoba oil, vitamin E, aloe, avocado, sandalwood, olive, citrus oil and astaxanthin.
The second item is the Razor Saver Oil, which is meant to preserve your razor from rusting; exposure to moist air corrodes blades quickly, leading to a jagged edge resulting in nicks and cuts. It comes in a nail polish-like bottle.
To use, simply clean your razor after shaving with hot water and tap it dry on a towel. Once the blades are dry, apply the Razor Saver Oil on them, lubricating the strip as well. And next time you are ready to shave, your razor will be sharp and last longer — increasing the life expectancy of your razor by 300%!
The next day, my legs still feel smooth and extremely moisturized. This is a great product to use in a pinch, if you need a quick shave. Check out more information and videos at www.bikinisoft.com.
