They say that pain is beauty, and I have to agree — there’s nothing easy about all the plucking and primping that goes into being pretty. But if you don’t have anything to pluck? Well, aren’t you lucky. For the rest of us? Ouch. However, there are some products out there that can help make all those annoying at-home beauty treatments way easier. And because everybody and their mother has a Prime membership, I’ve made sure that all of these useful products are available on Amazon.
That being said, I know everybody’s routine is different — so I’ve made sure to include a wide variety of stuff. Got flaking feet that look like you’ve been backpacking, barefoot, for weeks? Check out the callus remover in here that doesn’t need any scrubbing or filing. Or, if your pores are clogged like no one’s business, make sure to take a look at the facial steamer, blackhead tools, and the electric scrubber — just to cover all the bases. Trust me, you (and your complexion) will be thanking me for these recommendations later.
