What's in the kit

Three steps for after you shave or wax: clear the dead skin, help dark marks look more even, keep the skin calm.

A scrub, a serum and a cream, used in that order.

Tried other products?

A cream on its own can't clear the dead skin that traps new hairs.

"I've tried many other intimate products for ingrowns and skin brightening but none of it worked yet it was so expensive."

Radhiyyah Ravat, verified buyer, after almost a year with the kit

What women ask before they buy

Will it sting after waxing?
It shouldn't. The scrub uses soft beads that melt as you rub, and the cream has aloe and panthenol, which calm the skin. Some women with sensitive skin in our reviews say it caused them no irritation. Wait 24 hours after waxing, and try a little on your inner arm first.
How soon will I see a change?
Many women in our reviews say they had fewer bumps and smoother skin within 2 to 3 weeks. Dark marks take longer: 1 to 3 months of daily use.
Can I use it while pregnant?
The serum and the scrub have a small amount of salicylic acid (under 1%), so ask your doctor or midwife first.
Is it safe down there?
Yes, on the outer skin, the skin you can see. Never inside. Do a patch test on your inner arm first.

Why it keeps coming back

Every shave or wax irritates your skin, and irritated skin makes dark marks.

"I would always get painful skin around the area of waxing during the regrowth period when the hair is just about to pierce through the skin."

Rashieda Omer, verified buyer

Why you get ingrown hairs and dark marks

Your bikini area deals with constant friction from underwear, tight clothes, sweat and hair removal. All that irritation tells your skin to make more colour in that spot. That colour is what shows up as dark marks.

Ingrown hairs happen when hair gets trapped under dead skin or grows back at an angle after shaving or waxing. Your body treats that trapped hair like a problem and makes the skin red and swollen, causing bumps and more irritation.

The more irritation your skin gets, the darker it becomes. Then the next shave or wax starts it all again.

How the kit breaks the cycle

The scrub clears dead skin, the serum helps dark marks look more even, the cream calms shaved skin

Scrubbing hard makes it worse. The kit's scrub is gentle: soft beads that melt as you rub, and urea to loosen dead skin, 2 to 3 times a week.

You haven't done anything wrong. The razor or wax starts it again each time, so the kit works after every shave or wax: the scrub clears dead skin, the serum works on dark marks, and the cream keeps skin calm.

Where to use it

Use it where you shave or wax: bikini line, underarms and inner thighs

The bumps and dark marks come from the razor or the wax, so the kit goes wherever you remove hair.

It is gentle enough for the outer skin down there, the skin you can see. Never inside.

How to use it

Use them in this order: scrub first, cream last

  1. The scrub, wet, in the shower1

    The scrub

    In the shower, 2 to 3 times a week. Massage it in circles for about a minute, then rinse.

    • Bumps and ingrown hairs: urea and a little salicylic acid loosen the dead skin that traps new hairs.
    • Rough skin: soft beads that melt as you massage.
  2. Smoothing the serum over freshly shaved skin2

    The serum

    Once a day. One pump on clean, dry skin.

    • Dark marks: niacinamide and vitamin C help even out the look of the marks over weeks.
    • Dry, tight skin after shaving: glycerin and aloe.
  3. The cream3

    The cream

    Once a day, after the serum.

    • Red, irritated skin after shaving or waxing: aloe and panthenol.
    • Dry skin: hyaluronic acid, avocado oil and mango butter.

Shaista Sophia is a South African pharmacist. Women came to her quietly about their dark marks.

"When they came to me, it was done discreetly ... It was like always in the corner, on the side." So she made a skincare brand for them. Every product comes from a proper factory, made for the skin you shave and wax. Read her story

FAQ

Questions about the kit

Which one do I need, the kit or the roll-on?

Bumps and ingrown hairs where you shave or wax: the kit (a scrub, a serum and a cream). It also helps dark marks look more even over weeks. Want to work on a dark mark itself? The roll-on goes straight onto each mark. You can use them together.

Will it work on darker skin?

The serum has niacinamide (vitamin B3) and vitamin C to help dark marks look more even. Try a little on your inner arm first and wait 24 hours.

Can I use the cream every day?

Yes. Once a day, after the serum.

Where should I apply it?

On the skin you shave or wax: bikini line, underarms and inner thighs. On the outer skin down there only, never inside.

Can I use it after shaving or waxing?

Yes, that's what it's for. Just waxed? Wait 24 hours first.

Will it help with dryness?

Yes. The cream has glycerin and hyaluronic acid to pull water into the skin, and avocado oil and mango butter to keep it in.

How long does delivery take?

2 to 5 working days. Delivery is R100, or free when you spend R650.

What if I'm not home when the courier comes?
