Here’s a wild card: dry shaving. Yes, with nothing. But only if you have a sharp razor and low expectations.
What Can I Use In Place Of Shaving Cream | Detroit Chinatown
Dry shaving is fast and messy-free. You’ll get razor burn if you’re careless, but for a quick armpit touch-up, it’s a lifesaver. Just don’t try it on your knees unless you enjoy pain.
Pro tip: Hum your favorite song while you do it. Distraction helps. Science says so.
The Lotion Lottery
Any body lotion can work in a pinch. Slather it on thick, and shave right through it. It’s like shaving cream’s lazy cousin who still shows up to the party.
The only catch? Some lotions leave a weird white residue that looks like you fought a ghost. Rinse extra well, or you’ll look haunted on your way to work.
