They say that there is no shortcut towards that clear radiant skin we’re all after. It takes discipline and hard work, coupled with exercise, good diet, and V&M Naturals products (not sorry for the shameless plug). And if you’re reading this then you are one of us busy women who’ve had enough of the lengthy procession towards that. Little did you know that the secret towards this goal lies in just three easy steps.

You read that right; just three easy steps! This is perfect for women – and men -- who always have their hands full with work, minds busy thinking about the next thing to accomplish and feet towards that next big thing.

1. Cleanse

The first of this regimen is cleansing all the dirt that have entered you pores throughout your busy day, as well as any makeup residue. Shades of Shave is the best product for this step because not only does it clean your face, it also soothes any irritation and protects the skin from sun damage. In addition to this, it is infused with Sweet Orange, which improves circulation that would keep you feeling cool and calm after each wash.

2. Tone

After cleansing, make sure to use a toner that is best suited for your skin type. This will help in removing any more crud that hasn’t been washed off by your cleanser, as well as prepare your skin to receive all the benefits from all the succeeding products that you will use. An example of a good toner that is good for any skin type, just in case you are unsure of yours, is Rosewater + Aloe Soothing Toner. It has mild astringent properties that gently remove traces of dirt and residue, as it leaves the skin feeling cool and hydrated with regular use.

3. Moisturize

Lastly, a step that is as important as the first two but is often overlooked by many, is moisturizing. Cleansing and toning do remove dirt but they also strip away your skin of its natural oils. This is why it is necessary to replenish those lost essentials needed by the skin for its continuous protection. And what better moisturizer to use than Emu Oil, a natural oil with fatty acid that is closest to the human skin pH making it easier to repair any damage from within without clogging the pores. Truly, a miracle worker! 

There you go! The shortcut towards that healthy beautiful skin you’ve been dreaming to have. And with these products, you will surely be able to take care of your skin from the inside out.

Basically, shaving is easy. You just get your razor and drag it across your face — job done!

Nope.

A really good and close shave take a bit more than just a razor and a mirror.

We’ve debunked 3 myths about shaving for men

Myth #1: All you need is water and some soap.

Fact: Not really. Ordinary soaps tend to dry our skin. Shaving foams like Shades of Shave lubricates your skin for easy shaving. It acts as a layer of protection to effectively avoid nicks and cuts.

Myth #2: You could just simply razor out your stubble.

Fact: No! You’re just asking for wounds and possible light bleeding. Shades of Shave softens the skin for a closer shave. It glides the razor over the skin smoothly to prevent cuts.

Myth #3: It’s bad for your skin.

Fact: So not true! It actually makes your skin smooth as it removes dead skin cells. Shades of Shave works in two ways. It’s both a facial foam cleanser and a shaving foam.

It does not only remove dirt from your face or lubricates your skin for smoother shaving, it also softens the skin, diminishes irritation, and inflammation. Lastly, it contains orange extract which keeps you cool and energized wash after wash.

Men have various ways of shaving. Some do it dry, some like it wet. But not all of us shave right.

May you rest in peace, myths. Did these help clear some of your questions?
