Do you think it is OK to use regular razors with moisturizig strips?  I have no idea what is in them.  If not, do most of you use an electric razor?  I am trying to be more careful about what touches my skin.

I can't shave!!! Don't know why but my legs get so ichy and my skin gets bumpy. I never thought it could be related to the strips, actually I'm sorry cause I don't know if they would affect you... so can't answer your question.I use an electric epilator and have been happy with this method. The results are long lasting, it doesn't make my skin freak out, plus I no longer need shaving cream. I shave occasionaly my arm pits with a razor, seems to be fine for that.I have my bikini waxed.

What kind of epilator do you use? I use the Emjoy Epilator on my bikini line and it is not a very pleasant expereince.  I am always looking for new and improved ways to remoe excess body hair LOL.

I just use the regular Gillette Sensor Excel razor and for a shaving cream I just use plain old Dove Sensitive Skin soap.  I shave my legs in the shower.  I use olive oil soap over  the rest of my body.  I think the Dove works better for shaving though.
