Clever Uses for Baby Oil You’ve Probably Never Thought Of

You don’t always need shaving foam or gel for silky legs. Baby oil works just as well—maybe even better. It creates a smooth surface for the razor to glide on, softens hair, and leaves skin moisturized afterward, cutting out the need for extra products or long routines.

Coat your legs with baby oil and shave as usual. Keep a cup of water nearby to rinse the razor as you go, since the oil holds onto loose hairs. The result? A quick, close shave and soft, nourished skin—even without stepping into the shower first.
