Gillette Venus: Myths busted

10:23 PM Unknown 0 Comments

Gillette Venus organised an interactive a panel discussion with Kriti Sanon along with renowned aesthetic physician Dr. Rashmi Shetty and make-up artist Namrata Soni to educate and bust myths around shaving. They shared their expertise and enlightened women on the techniques of shaving and vouched for shaving being one of the most hassle free and painless methods of female hair removal. I gained confidence on shaving and now I prefer shaving rather than waxing. In my next post I will be discussing how a person can shave hassle free.

For my readers to gain confidence on shaving I am in this post discussing some of the common myths associated with shaving:

Myth

Post shaving skin is dry and flaky and itchy.

That’s absolutely wrong, using razors in right way never leaves the skin dry, flaky and itchy. The correct way to use a razor is to wet the area you want to shave or use a shave gel for better results and after shaving apply a moisturizer.

Myth

Shaving leads to skin darkening.

That’s not true. The fact being hair growth is hard or fast depends on the genetics and your body type

There are a number of options for hair removal like waxing, using epilators, Laser for hair removal but I feel shaving is the fastest, easiest and one of the inexpensive options and at the comfort of your home.

I guess. It’s the opposite! Shaving very subtly exfoliates the top layer and so the question of skin darkening doesn’t arise at all.

Myth

Shaving leads to hair grow hard and faster.

That’s not true. The fact being hair growth is hard or fast depends on the genetics and your body type.

Myth

Go to a salon to get smooth and soft skin.

Gillette Venus #subscribetosmooth Challenge

3:10 PM Unknown 0 Comments

In a recent session hosted by Gillette Venus at Vivanta By Taj (New Delhi) issues related to shaving and hair removal amongst women came up. The seminar included many aspects of shaving and discussed myths associated with shaving. The campaign is named #subscribetosmooth challenge.

Whether to use a razor for shaving or not is a common question among most of the urban working women these days. With a busy life style and Packed working schedules most women give parlour a miss. But this sacrifice on personal care may not yield desired results. So this time actress Kriti Sanon along with Dr Rashmi Sethi ( Aesthetic Physician) and Namrata soni came as panel. Session included at length the anxiety women have before shaving as we all are into the habit of waxing our hair. Trying something new may sound like a bad idea for most ladies, including me.

A few personal experiences from the panel made me courageous enough to try this product and Yes, I have taken up a 30-Days #Subscribetosmooth challenge. Highlighting the various benefits of shaving Namrata Soni said, “Contrary to the belief, shaving is actually one of the widely recommended method of hair removal for women. It helps in maintaining the health of the skin by keeping it soft, smooth and in exfoliating the skin, as well. As a matter of fact, shaving must become a part of every woman’s regular beauty regime. Gillette Venus razors not only give the ease and convenience of shaving, but also is the safest method of hair removal”.

Now I feel that replacing our current waxing routines would be much easier, healthier and hassle free option. This product is much of what I would like to replace with my monthly hair waxing regime. Do give it a try and hopefully it would change your notion about shaving too leaving you happy and satisfied.

Happy shaving. 
