I am amazed that this stuff really works as an african american female who suffered form hideous and painful razor bumps. I am soooo happy that I finally broke down and tried this product out for not only did it virtually illiminate my razor bumps but I no longer suffer from the severe itching of newly grown hairs and the hairs don't grow back as quickly.As I consumer I firmly believe that if a product claims to do something it should do just that which holds true for this product.

Tend Skin is really only useful for ingrown hairs. It's basically a highly effective exfoliant. It is TOTALLY WORTH THE PRICE if you get really bad ingrown hairs. I have used it for over 10 years. I get ingrown hairs from shaving my legs and waxing body hair. Tend skin makes this bearable, otherwise I'd have to go all hippie and stop shaving all together. I use it once or twice a day, especially in summer. There is another product on the market that has similar ingredients in a gel roll-on, but it isn't strong enough to work.

Drawbacks: The price, obviously. You have to use it daily, especially after waxing. It is a liquid, and most easily applied like toner with a cotton ball. If you use your hands to apply this liquid like a lotion it works, but your hands get peely skin. I like to use latex gloves. Tend Skin makes fake tanning difficult; because it exfoliates so well, your fake tan with disappear faster. It smells harsh until it dries (2 minutes) I would not use it on sensitive facial skin. And it doesn't get rid of zits, unless they are ingrown hairs. Despite what the directions indicate, it's VERY IRRITATING ON RAZOR BURN or SKIN THAT HAS JUST BEEN SHAVED.

I've used this product off and on several times over the last few years. At first it was much more potent and worked almost instantly to cure razor bumps and irritation. However, i've noticed over the last couple of years or so the price continues to increase and the product itself seems more diluted and less effective. My last expensive bottle has almost no effect on my skin whatsoever. And I do use it as directed.

My advice would be to save a lot of money and use Clean & Clear Deep Cleaning Astringent (with salicylic acid). It is just as effective, if not more so than TendSkin.

I have used Tend Skin for around three years now for razor bumps on the bikini line. Before I started using it, I had tried everything else and resigned to the fact that I'd always be stuck with bumps along the bikini line. A friend of mine told me about Tend Skin and swore by it, so I bought a small bottle. It seemed like it was expensive, but that first bottle lasted well over 6 months. It does smell like alcohol at first but the smell goes away when it dries. As far as the other reviews on here, I've only had stinging when I used it IMMEDIATELY after shaving...I think b/c the pores were still open from the shower. For me, it's been a skin saver when I'd already given up the search. I hope that the negative reviews on here don't discourage people from trying it. Everyone's skin reacts somewhat differently. Of the millions of bottles of Tend Skin sold every year, I think the half dozen people on here who didn't like it are the few unhappy rarities, not the average who, like me, thank goodness it's around.

I used Tend Skin for a few years and it was the best one that I could find but a few weeks ago I saw a nother product on Amazon called Solution 2 and ordered it instead. I was a little worried because I was getting good results with the bumps with Tend Skin but it burned a lot and dried out my skin quite a bit. Solution 2 is definitely a better product for me with my sensitive skin and it works just as good on the bumps!

I really do not feel tend skin works as advertised. The irritation to my neck persisted and if anything had only gotten worse after applying as instructed. One good thing is that you if you are like me and have trouble waking up in the morning --- tend skin helps for that! Just take a strong whiff and you'll be alert and ready for your day!

I'm one of those guys who shaved with a razor for awhile and wondered why I got all those red bumps on my neck. Well, it got so bad that I finally went online and did some research. After googling razor bumps Tend Skin came up. It seemed like many people had a good experience with it so I bought some. Also switched to an electric razor instead of a blade razor.

Amazingly, I saw results within the first 4-5 hours of using this stuff - a lot of the smaller red bumps disappeared entirely. The big red bumps seemed to shrink noticeably. (Yes, you see the results within 24 hours... at least I did).

The first thing you notice is the smell - it has a sharp (but not necessarily strong) vinegar smell. Ok, so you wouldn't want to bathe in this stuff... Second, you notice it stings (like rubbing alcohol) on your skin for ONLY 1-2 seconds. Interesting but for what it does, I can live with that.

Well, I've been using this stuff for over a handful of days now and 90% of my razor burn/ingrown hairs are GONE. This stuff is amazing...

I use this stuff 2 times a day (morning/night - after shaving). In the morning I use a Q tip and lightly dab the razor bumps. In the evening I use a Cotton Ball and get more on my neck/face. I've used this stuff for almost a week now and I have yet to use anywhere near 10% of the bottle so it will last a very LONG time (months at this rate). Now that most of my razor bumps are gone I'm using less and less as well.

Anyone suffering from razor burn/ingrown neck hair like me - get this and you won't be disappointed.

Some shaving advice: If shaving with a razor - do not shave against the grain (this will cause razor bumps). If shaving with an electric razor - shave against the grain. If you have razor bumps stop using a razor and get an electric.

This stuff is supposed to help razor burn, ingrown hairs. Honestly after all the time using it I can't honestly say if it works. What I can say is that it smells terrible. Not a weak terrible smell, but a strong, overpowering stink.
It also burns like crazy when you put it on.

The Tend Skin company puts out this story about a miraculous discovery - a dentists patient came to him after a tooth extraction and raved that whatever the anesthetic was that he was given, it had cured his ingrown hairs.

Well, there are three ingredients in tend skin - alcohol, glycerin, and aspirin. Thats it.
So apparently this dental patient had been cured of ingrown hairs by taking an aspirin.

Bottom line is, this product is insanely overpriced, and they hide it with this distortion, this silly propaganda about its "miraculous discovery."

A little bottle of alcohol and aspirin should cost a tenth of this.

Look up the ingredients yourself. I foolishly bought this for my bikini line, because what good is hair removal if it is replaced by bumps? But, after I got it and used it (it did work a little) I noticed that it is mostly alcohol, a little aspirin, another ingredient common in any moisturizer and then Propylene Glycol...which is the main ingredient in antifreeze. Save yourself some money and go buy a 50 cent bottle of rubbing alcohol....I did, and it works just as well.

I don't know why nobody else likes this product, but so far it's the only one that works for my ingrown facial hairs..

Yes, it stings a bit when I put it on, but it quickly goes away.
It doesn't dry my skin out, it actually helps get rid of the dry, white-looking flaky skin after I shave.

I used to get ingrown hairs so bad on my face that they would be there for MONTHS. Eventually I'd get to the point of having to do my own surgery with a needle to try and extract the hair.

If I get an ingrown hair now, I just use Tend Skin once in the morning and once before bed, and it actually extracts the hair on it's own! It gets rid of the redness and swelling also associated with ingrown hairs.
For the only time in my life my face actually looks clear, and Tend Skin is the product that has done it for me.

Before I finish, I'd just like to add that I'm the kind of person that NOTHING ever works on. Any product I try, never does as advertised. Whether it be shampoo, deodorant, medication, etc.
Tend Skin is one of the rarities that actually DOES work for me.
And believe me, I've tried a LOT of products for ingrown hairs.
