Bondi Blades Dermaplaning Blades 3pc packet
Dermaplaning is the latest skin-enhancing trend that removes unwanted peach fuzz and also gently buffs away dead skin. Dermaplaning removes pesky peach fuzz on your facial area which can sometimes trap oil, potentially causing breakouts. It also creates a sensationally soft canvas for you to apply skincare for deeper penetration and seamless makeup application, for a more radiant, glowing complexion.
Key Benefits:
- Single pack of 3 bio-degradable wheat straw handle dermaplaning blades.
- Stainless steel blade and sustainable anti-slip handle.
- Approximately 3-4 shaves per blade.
- Good for the skin, good for the environment.
How to Use:
Step 1. Start with a freshly cleansed face and use a headband towel to keep your hair from sticking to your face.
Step 2. Use your Bondi Blade on a 45-degree angle and gently stroke in the direction of the hair. We recommend dermaplaning downwards.
You can choose to dermaplane on either slightly wet skin or dry skin. Soaking wet skin may cause the blade to slip so please handle with care, however a gentle lubricant on the skin may be the thing you need!
Lubricants you can use: Aloe Vera gel, a facial oil, such as Rosehip Oil or even olive oil will do just the trick!
Step 3. After each stroke, wipe the blade on a cotton pad so you can see the results instantly as you go! Warning: This is extremely satisfying as you see how much hair has come off!
Step 4. Gently wash your face to remove any remaining hairs laying on the surface of your skin and then apply a facial serum.
Step 5. Remain Make-up Free for the day to reduce any chance of irritation.
About Dermaplaning:
Dermaplaning at home myth's busted by Ali Clarke - the Founder of bondiblades
MYTH #1 - Your peach fuzz will grow back thicker and darker
Let’s get this rumour done with once and for all: no matter where it grows on your body, shaving does not cause hair to grow back thicker or darker. Many people think that shaving your legs or underarms causes thicker hair growth. This is false. It’s biologically impossible for hair to grow back thicker because of shaving. Shaving simply creates a blunt tip on the hairs, which many people interpret as greater thickness. When you dermaplane, you are removing very, very fine hair called vellus hair. This hair is so thin and soft that removing it with a dermaplaning tool will have little to no impact on how it looks when it grows back. After removing the vellus hair, your skin will instantly feel and look smoother and brighter. It will take about a week for the hair to grow back, at which time you can dermaplane again.
MYTH #2 - Dermaplaning is painful
Dermaplaning is actually one of the least painful ways to remove facial hair and dead skin—especially when compared to other hair removal techniques like sugaring, threading, and waxing. Think about it: shaving your underarms isn’t painful, so why would shaving your face be painful? Many people describe the feeling of dermaplaning as a gentle tickle or brushing sensation.
MYTH #3 - Dermaplaning will cause breakouts
Like most exfoliation techniques, dermaplaning prevents breakouts rather than causes them. While dermaplaning can’t be performed on skin with active acne, it will prevent clogged pores and pimples from forming. By removing the top layer of dead skin cells, dermaplaning prevents these cells from getting trapped inside your pores. Less dead skin = fewer breakouts. By gently exfoliating the skin, dermaplaning also makes it easier for acne treatments and serums to penetrate into the pores to prevent and treat breakouts.
MYTH #4 - Dermaplaning isn't for darker skin
While some exfoliation methods (like scrubs) aren’t recommended for darker skin, dermaplaning is 100% safe. Dermaplaning is a type of manual exfoliation like a face scrub. However, unlike a scrub, dermaplaning doesn’t irritate or cause micro-abrasions in the skin so it won’t cause hyperpigmentation. It’s actually one of our favorite exfoliation methods for dark skin because it instantly removes the dark baby hair that can make deep skin look duller than it really is.
MYTH #5 - Dermaplaning is time-consuming
While it may take you slightly longer during your first few uses as you get used to performing the treatment yourself, dermaplaning shouldn’t take you longer than 3-5 minutes. Plus, you only need to dermaplane once a week to see noticeable results.
