Razor bumps: (pseudofolliculitis barbae, pronounced "soo-doe-fol-li-cu-li'-tis): Razor bumps are created when the growing beard hairs exit the skin, curl over, and burrow into the adjacent skin. This creates a foreign body reaction resulting in an unsightly "bump". Razor bumps form on the beard areas of men-mostly Black men and about 15-20% of Caucasian men. Occurrence varies with nationality.

Ingrown Hairs: Ingrown hairs form when hairs, growing back after shaving, waxing, electrolysis, or other hair removal method, and fail to grow out of the skin. The hairs curl over inside the follicles under the skin (just like the "razor bump" hairs curl above the skin). By curling, the hair creates a foreign body reaction in the hair follicle. The inflammation in the follicle then creates and unsightly "bump". |
Electrolysis. Applying Tend SkinĀ® regularly to areas that are treated with electrolysis will prevent the ingrown hair formation that may occur. When used after electrolysis, the redness will disappear within minutes.
Uses for Women:
For Shaving: Once skin clears, apply after shaving to maintain clarity and to help reduce post-shave redness.
For Use with Electrolysis: Apply before treatment as a cleanser. Apply after treatment to help clear redness and minimize post-treatment bumping.
For Use with Waxing: Applying the lotion before waxing will ease the wax pull. The hairs will feel loosened. Applying after waxing helps clear the skin in 15-20 minutes and helps minimize next-day post-wax bumping.
Prevention with waxing/electrolysis: If you are clear of ingrown hairs, apply several times weekly when you see new growth starting.
Uses for Men:
For those with ingrown hairs/razor bumps on faces, necks, back of the necks and scalps: Use twice daily until clear as directed. Then use daily after shaving to maintain clear skin. Replace razor blade as soon as it does not have that new blade feel. Otherwise, the scraping will make the problems worse. You can use a blade, clippers, etc. Use a blade for closes shave. The appearance of any bumps may be reduced if you apply Tend Skin lotion after a blade shave.
All of these cosmetic problems relate to hair removal. This means Tend Skin lotion is suited for men and women. Men can use the lotion on their faces, necks and back of the head. Women will find it useful on legs, bikini lines, underarms and anywhere hair removal creates ingrown hairs or razor bumps. Tend Skin lotion works very quickly. You will see results in 24 hours. Use in conjunction with shaving, waxing, electrolysis, and epilating.
Note: Tend Skin Lotion may cause mild exfoliation. This is beneficial as it will leave your skin looking "baby smooth", and will help remove rough skin build-up. Try applying it to your face daily. Your skin will noticeably glow. Tend Skin Lotion may cause drying and some people may be allergic to the Acetylsalicylic Acid (Aspirin). |
