Makeup Goes On Better When You Shave Your Face? Here’s Why

If your foundation doesn’t always sit quite right or your highlighter doesn’t shine the way you want, the issue may not be your products — it could be peach fuzz. The solution? Facial shaving.

By removing fine hair and creating a smooth, even base, makeup applies seamlessly and lasts longer. Here’s the beauty science behind it.

Peach Fuzz: The Hidden Makeup Disrupter

Peach fuzz — the soft, natural hair on your face — is harmless but it can affect how makeup looks. Foundation clings to the tiny hairs, powders appear uneven, and creams lose that flawless finish.

Removing peach fuzz with an electric facial shaver transforms skin into a smooth surface, allowing makeup to blend beautifully.

Why Shaving Enhances Makeup Application

Using the Facial Shaver before makeup isn’t only about removing hair, it’s about preparing skin for a professional finish. Makeup artists love it for good reason:

• Even texture: Foundation applies without clinging to fine hair.

• Longer wear: Makeup adheres better, reducing the need for touch ups.

• Radiant glow: Gentle exfoliation removes dead skin cells for brightness.

• Perfect blending: Cream products melt seamlessly into the skin.

• Photo ready skin: Ideal for events, pictures, and flawless everyday wear.

How to Use a Facial Shaver Before Makeup

1. Start with clean, dry skin.

2. Hold the shaver at a 45 degree angle and use light strokes.

3. Focus on cheeks, jawline, and upper lip.

4. Hydrate with moisturiser or primer.

5. Apply makeup for a seamless finish.

Pro tip: Clean your Facial Shaver with the included brush to keep results fresh.
