“Strawberry legs” are visible dark dots/bumps after shaving—usually clogged follicles (keratin plugs), ingrowns, or dryness. Good news: a gentle routine can smooth texture and even tone.
Smooth-Skin Routine (Legs)
- Cleanse: use a mild, fragrance-free wash to remove residue.
- Exfoliate (2–3×/week): gentle physical/chemical exfoliation. You can use Brightnix Whitening Scrub with a light touch to lift dull build-up.
- Moisturize & Brighten: Whitening Cream (100ml) on knees/ankles for tone + hydration; for stubborn dark spots on joints, layer Whitening Serum first.
- Shave Smart: shave on damp skin with a sharp razor, short strokes, then moisturize.
Why This Works
- Exfoliation clears plugs & smooths follicles
- Hydration + Actives reduce ashiness & uneven tone
- Razor hygiene reduces micro-nicks that darken over time
Extra Tips
- Exfoliate the night before shaving (not immediately after)
- Switch to breathable fabrics to reduce friction
- Use sunscreen on exposed legs to prevent darkening
