The shave butter is now on sale in Superdrug
2
It's goes on like silk
And for many, getting the pins out means hacking away at the winter fuzz.
I'm a dark-haired lass which means I don't have the luxury of just leaving it be.
Usually I opt for waxing, as it lasts longer and gets a smoother result.
However, it costs a fortune - and I find it really hard to fit in appointments around work.
But the team at Superdrug recently urged me to try one of their new, viral products, Mallows Shave Butter.
The beauty innovation is the brainchild of Laura Mallows, a Cardiff-born entrepreneur who has a background in working for skincare firms.
Fed up with not having her ideas taken seriously, she started up her own firm and quickly gathered steam on social media with her bright, fun and super smelling line.
Now, just six years after starting up, she's being stocked in Superdrug, and was recently in Glasgow as part of the store's Beauty Playground launch.
And one of her top sellers is Shave Butter.
It really does look and smell good enough to eat. I tried the 'I'm a Mallows Girl' option, packed with nourishing shea butter and grapeseed oil to help banish painful razor rash - something I often suffer from.

It's suggested you exfoliate the skin first, which I did, before wetting your legs and lathering up with the butter.
It goes on like silk and the razor just glides over your legs.
I was actually stunned by how close a shave I got and how smooth my legs felt afterwards.
Usually my legs are spiky a couple of hours after shaving - but 24 hours on and they're still softer than a baby's backside.
It's £14.95 for a tub but it really does go a long way - and is still a fraction of the price of a waxing appointment. A good deal all round!

I'm a picky eater & eat barely any of the ‘awful' food at all-inclusive hotels – trolls slam me as ‘disrespectful'
Scroll down to find out what Simone had for her dinner FOOD FOR THOUGHT I'm a picky eater & eat barely any of the 'awful' food at all-inclusive hotels – trolls slam me as 'disrespectful' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WOMAN has been slammed as "disrespectful" for turning her nose up at the "weird" dishes on offer at an all inclusive hotel. Simone Wilko, a self-confessed picky eater, recently went on holiday to Cyprus, and was not impressed by the food that was on offer.

Showing viewers a plate of delicious looking stuffed courgettes with vegetables, she said: "I understand I'm in a different country, but what on earth are these foods? "They look absolutely awful." Showing the camera a dish of traditional black eye beans with Swiss chards, she then said: "I couldn't think of anything worse." Simone then spotted a pizza and got excited as she thought it was margherita, but after reading that the label said Quatro Formaggi (four cheese) she decided to give it a miss. The holidaymaker then decided to put some plain bread on her plate, along with a portion of chips. "If these had herbs on, I wouldn't have got them", she admitted. "I just don't like the taste of seasoning." She then placed some ribs on her plate, and a small bit of pork from a stir fry, making sure to avoid the veg as she "hates spring onions". However, she said that the pork was "horrible" anyway, as it had seasoning on it. 10 Expert Tips for Managing Picky Eaters Simone then moved on to dessert, but unfortunately said that she also found her chocolate mousse "disgusting". Her video, posted under the username (@s33immm) has quickly gone viral, racking up 772,000 views on the video sharing platform. TikTok users raced to the video's comments section to share their thoughts, with many unimpressed by Simone's attitude to the cuisine. One person said: "Picky is fine, but insulting other countries' foods is not OK." A second person said: "Fellow lowkey picky eater here but there's a difference between you and me. "I don't go around being disrespectful about food." A third person said: "I'm a very picky eater but this seems disrespectful." A fourth added: "Picky is one thing but just because you don't like something doesn't mean it's disgusting."
