Happy Summer: Nether Region PSA!

Happy first day of Summer!

I thought I would start off this glorious season with a post about our most sensitive private goodies.

If you are like me, you are preppin your nether region to stay as dry and cool and fresh as possible as the mother nature has her way with us with the brutal temps and humidity.

Whether you are shaving or waxing and powederin’ there are some things I think you need to keep in mind.

If you are a shaver, make sure you use a fresh razor EVERY time. And if you spent the winter hibernating and building up a “reserve” down there, make sure you do a scissor trim first. And use a good shaving cream or shaving gel.

Prep the area with some heat and warmth, preferably from being in the shower or bath for a bit. Make sure you start to shave in the direction of hair growth and make a couple of swipes in the other direction while pulling your skin but don’t get gaga going over and over the area or you risk cuts, razor burn and more. I always end with a nice hydrogen peroxide swipe down.

If you are a waxer {and gawd bless ya…cuz this girl aint havin it} check out this little PSA from Dr. Schultz on “waxing infections” and why they are caused and how most of the time they are inevitable.

And finally powederin. This is a MUST for me! I just can’t stand being all sweaty and sticky!

And I am sure you have heard all the cornstarch vs talc debate and well I err on the side of caution based on all the medical chatter and stick to the constarch based brands.

But don’t get carried away and pluff so much down there or risk getting it all over your drag.
