What is Dermaplaning?
Well, Dermaplaning is just a fancy term for shaving your face and it is easily done at home. It is a highly effective way to exfoliate your skin and get rid of peach fuzz, which can trap dirt, oil, and your foundation, and make you look older. It also helps your skincare products to penetrate that dead skin layer. Shaving is one of the most effective ways to help your skin look flawless and make you look more youthful. Thus, making it one of the most efficient ways to stay on top of your regimine.
How to Dermaplane?
Firstly, you need a good tool and also to prep your skin before you begin. Wash your face with a good enzyme wash to take off all that dead skin. Use an alcohol wipe to get those vellus hairs to stand upright. Shave, hold your skin taut and the razor at an angle, and use gentle, short strokes in a downward motion. After,ย use another light gentle enzyme exfoliant to rid the dead skin cells you have now shaved from your face. Lastly, put moisture back into your soft supple skin and SPF if you do this during day hours.
Main Tool
Simply put once you use the Swann Morton 10R blade you will not trade for any other blade. However, it is okay to start out with the Twinkle Razors.
Swann Morton #10R
For those performing cosmetic and dermaplaning procedures โ Swann-Mortonโs famous #10R blade, better known as the โbutter bladeโ is now available as a disposable scalpel. The blade is permanently attached to a blue polystyrene handle, eliminating the need to attach and remove the blade from a handle. The #10R blade is ideal for contouring the nose, mouth, and brows. The rounded (bull nose) tip prevents any accidental snagging or scratching thus providing a more effective and consistent finish. Dermaplaning can be performed on small areas of the skin or on the entire face.

A simple yet very effective treatment I do once monthly. Lastly,it is a fabulous skincare treatment that will improve the texture of your skin. Contrary to what people think, removing your peach fuzz from your face with a razor will not make your hair grow back thicker or faster. Itโs just not true.ย xo- Kim
