Hot legs

OK, I am willing to admit that I have a little bit of an obsessive tendency about the whole body hair thing. My eyebrows will testify that they have suffered overplucking in the name of this obsession, and my legs will certainly attest to numerous abuses they have endured as I have tried to figure out how to best control the misery that is stubble. BUT--life has gotten significantly easier for both my legs and me, as I have discovered the Venus Breeze!! A friend recommended it, and because I was starting to feel a little guilty about all the disposable razors that were going into the landfill because of my obsessiveness, I gave it a try. I have to admit I was skeptical--I have not been thrilled with the results of past razors with replaceable blades. They seemed to dull quickly and then the bleeding would commence. However, the big advantage of this one is that it has these solid shaving cream strips on the top and bottom of the blades, so you just wet it and glide it over your skin. No shaving gel or cream and somehow, not a single cut! And I have been able to use each blade refill multiple times (five or six) before replacing. Here's the link to the website:

Even better--they sell it with twelve refills at Costco (or at least they did a month ago). I am smooth and stubble-free for the warm weather. Now if I could just find a self-tanner with no funky smell to it, I could actually wear shorts!
