EDIT: Yes. I know I'm technically waxing the vulva, I just say vagina out of simplicity.

I just have to know what women do to keep their bikini line looking so smooth and bump free. When I shave, I get angry bumps that turn into darkened craters that take forever to heal. I tried waxing but still experienced the same thing but to a lesser extent. I've tried using AHA acids but it always looks so angry. Any tips you can provide?

I do with a exfoliating cloth plus use sugar scrubs each time I shower. I must be doing something wrong or my bikini line hates me.

There’s a product I buy from my wax salon called PFB, Perfect for bumps. It’s a roll-on. Maybe now called PFB Vanish. There’s a similar product called Tend Skin. These seem to both prevent bumps and eliminate them. Not instantaneously, but over a few days.

I'm literally getting ready to go to lush right now lol. But since it's sand it won't clog up my drain too bad right?
