    Yes, I can often be found in Sainsburys peering down my knickers at my shopping list.

    You can get away with that in Lidl but not Sainsburys and definitely not Waitrose! :eek::rotfl:

    My best tip for this area is use a mans razor (gilette mach 3) - they are sharper than womens razors. also make sure u hav 2 weeks hair growth and always use a new blade (expensive i know - but 4 blades = £5 full leg and bikin wax can be £30). I waxed religiously from 14yrs to 20yrs old but now a MSE i always use a razor! u should only have to shave every 3rd day whilst on hol, and as you do darker (if u r sunbathing) hair becomes lighter anyway!

    The damage I've done using cheap razors is bad...would be better using a match and singeing it off!!!!lol

    I use a seiko cleancut electric shaver. I do brazilian style, it is fine, no rash, no cuts and regrowth doesn't itch at all. Less scary than wet shving with a razor too! I'd be worried about slipping! I think its a much better alternative to waxing - and you can do it yourself with bathroom door locked!

    The "free gift" is a trimmer so you can make sure the hair is short enough to use the shaver on as the shaver only works on stubble. It's great! The best £40 I ever spent. Definitely money saving too as way cheaper than waxing!

    Pretty much as described in post 22...
  • Im with you! I get that horrible spotty rash after shaving too. Seem to have no problem when i use the "in shower" cream that you then kind of scrub off afterwards. Worth a try.
