Vacay booked. Swimsuit packed. But now you’re staring at your razor wondering: When should I actually shave before the trip? Too early, and you risk regrowth. Too late, and you might be dealing with redness, irritation—or worse, ingrowns—on the beach.
Good news: with the Mi-el Smooth Shaving Bundle, you can get a close, bump-free shave and time it just right for your glow-up moment. Here's everything you need to know about when and how to shave before your vacation—and how to keep that smoothness going all trip long.
When Should You Shave Before Vacation?
Let’s cut to the chase:
-
Shave 24–48 hours before you travel—especially if you’re shaving your bikini line or underarms.
-
This gives your skin time to calm down, any redness to fade, and any minor nicks to heal before sun, saltwater, or tight clothing get involved.
If you're prone to razor bumps or sensitivity, go with the 48-hour mark. You’ll still be smooth, but your skin will have a full day to reset before you hit the beach.
Your Vacation-Ready Shave Routine (The Mi-el Way)
Step 1: Exfoliate Gently with the Sugar Scrub
Start in the shower by using the exfoliating sugar scrub on damp skin. This helps lift dead skin cells, prevent clogged pores, and brings ingrown hairs to the surface—making for a smoother shave and fewer bumps.
Step 2: Apply the Oil Before You Shave
Use the nourishing pre-shave oil to soften the hair and add a silky barrier between your razor and your skin. This helps the blade glide more easily, reduces tugging, and minimizes irritation (especially on delicate areas like your bikini line).
Step 3: Aftercare with the Bump-Preventing Cream
Post-shave, massage in the cream to calm your skin and prevent redness, itching, and ingrowns. This formula is especially perfect for travel days when you're slipping into shorts, swimsuits, or tight clothing.
Bonus Tips for Staying Smooth All Vacation Long
-
Bring the cream with you to apply every 1–2 days and stay ingrown-free.
-
Skip harsh exfoliants or active acids (like AHAs or retinol) right after shaving if you’ll be in the sun.
-
Moisturize daily, especially after swimming—hydrated skin = smoother, longer-lasting results.
The Bottom Line
Shaving before vacation doesn’t have to be a gamble. With the right timing and the Mi-el Smooth Shaving Bundle in your corner, you’ll get a silky, beach-ready shave without the bumps, rash, or irritation.
Whether you’re headed to a tropical beach or a cozy cabin getaway, your glow-up starts with smooth, healthy skin.
