Top Facial Razors For Women

Sonal Trivedi

Face shaving has been around for a while now, and shaving for a first-timer can be a little tricky. We have listed our top picks to clear your doubts and help you pick a face shaving razor perfect for you. Before we get to that, here are some tips you should keep in mind before purchasing or using a face hair removal razor. 

Ensure that your skin is squeaky clean and does not have makeup or dirt remnants. Using a gel-based product like aloe vera gel or bamboo gel will make sure that your razor glides smoothly.  Avoid using an old razor since it could result in knicks and cuts, leading to scars. 

While shaving the hair around your eyebrows is normal, make sure your razor is not close to your eye area. After shaving, do not forget to use a hydrating moisturizer and avoid using any chemical or physical exfoliant. Any kind of abrasive product can potentially irritate your skin and cause skin irritation. Now that you are armed with all this information let us look at our top picks in the facial razor for women category.


Carmesi Facial Razor 


A facial razor for women that is extremely gentle? We recommend the Carmesi Facial Razor. This razor glides like butter on the face and ensures minimal chances of getting razor burn or cuts. If you are going to try shaving your face for the first time, get your hands on this one.


Bombay Shaving Company Face Razor


Bombay Shaving Company has one of the bestselling face razors in India, and rightfully so. This face hair removal razor comes in sleek packaging, which is extremely easy to hold and navigate. If you have been afraid of shaving your eyebrows, this face razor will help you gain the confidence to hold it at a proper angle. You can expect a smooth shave with this one every single time.


Sirona Reusable Eyebrow and Face Razor


This Sirona Reusable Eyebrow and Face Razor comes in a pack of two and is another great pick for first-time users. You can use this to shape your eyebrows, get rid of peach fuzz as well as sideburns. The blades on these razors are not too blunt and not too sharp, giving them a good balance. It has an anti-slip grip handle which is great for a sturdy hold. 
 

FAQs


Does face shaving cause hair growth to become thicker?


No, shaving your face will not result in thicker hair. It is not scientifically proven to result in thicker hair, and your hair will grow back the way it is supposed to.


Is face shaving painful?


We recommend face shaving only on plain skin. If your skin has bumps or pimples, avoid using a face razor. Let your skin heal, and then consider shaving your face.


Does face shaving result in smooth skin?


Face shaving can partially help get smoother skin since it helps remove the layer of dead skin sitting on top of your facial skin. You can expect smoother penetration of your skincare products on shaved skin, but we do not recommend using a physical or chemical exfoliator right after shaving.
 

Does face shaving help with makeup application?


Yes. Face shaving results in a smoother canvas for your base products to lie on top of your face. It helps your products to sit better and appear smoother.

Can I use a regular razor for shaving my facial hair?


We do not recommend using men’s razors or body razors for facial hair. Always use facial razors, which allow you to have a good grip, especially for areas that are hard to reach. A regular razor won’t help you get rid of peach fuzz since it isn’t designed to target that.
