Shaving tips for every stage of life: what your skin needs in your 30s, 40s, or 50+
No matter how much we apply creams, care for, exfoliate, and massage, skin aging is a natural process that cannot be stopped.
Of course, this doesn’t mean we should just give up.
Quite the opposite.
The right care for each stage of life is incredibly important.
By giving your skin what it needs at that moment, you give nature a helping hand and ensure your hair-free skin looks its best.
What your skin needs at every stage of life
• 30: In your thirties, you’ll start to notice your skin losing its firmness.
As you get older, your skin loses collagen, and focusing on maintaining your moisture balance becomes increasingly important.
You can give your skin what it needs by choosing products with ingredients like vitamin C, vitamin E, ferulic acid, chamomile, retinol, hyaluronic acid, and collagen.
Product tip: For example, care for your skin after shaving with a nourishing aftershave for women with vitamin E and chamomile.
• 40: After your fortieth birthday, your hormone balance changes and you’ll notice your skin getting thinner, developing wrinkles, and more frequently suffering from dry skin.
Moisturizing and hydrating creams and products now become a real must (though they actually always were).
When shopping for products, look for ingredients like aloe vera, retinol, hyaluronic acid, almond oil, rose oil, vitamin C, and green tea.
Product tip: For instance, choose a transparent shaving cream with aloe vera, vitamin E, and the lovely scent of fresh roses.
• 50: Women who have passed fifty are convinced: life begins at fifty.
All the more reason to care for yourself and your body daily with plenty of love and attention. Your wrinkles become more visible as the process of collagen and moisture loss continues.
The pH balance of your skin also changes, making your skin more sensitive and easily damaged. You’ll be doing your skin a huge favor during this stage of life with ingredients like niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, retinol, hydrolyzed collagen, and vitamin C.
Product tip: To put less strain on your aging skin during shaving, it’s wise to switch to a single-blade razor.
A good shaving routine is timeless
Whether you’re thirty, forty, fifty, or older, paying attention to your hair removal routine is an absolute must if you want to keep your skin in optimal condition.
Hair removal is a moment of stress for your skin and deserves extra love and attention before and after.
- I advise you to exfoliate regularly to remove lingering dirt, bacteria, and dead skin cells. This reduces the chance of skin irritation after hair removal and improves your skin’s condition, making it look more beautiful.
- During shaving, use a transparent shaving cream that protects and hydrates your skin.
- Do the actual shaving with a single-blade razor. A razor with just one blade is kinder to your skin and cuts your hairs cleanly. It is safe to use and therefore also suitable for sensitive, aging skin.
- After shaving, it’s important to give your skin the right aftercare. Avoid care products containing alcohol and instead opt for a hydrating aftershave for women.
Do you suffer from skin irritation – such as itchy legs – after shaving?
As much as we women love to remove our body hair, it remains a moment of stress for our skin.
It is therefore incredibly important to use the right care so your skin can calm down and doesn’t experience even more stress.
The absolute foundation is a solid shaving routine (like the one I described above), but if this isn’t enough and you experience shaving discomfort, then specific care is needed.
For women who suffer from redness, itching, bumps, pimples, and ingrown hairs after shaving (or after waxing, epilating, using a hair removal cream, or IPL), I have developed YIONN Raka lotion.
This is a lotion that you apply daily to your problem area in the beginning. You apply the lotion with a cotton pad, let it soak in, and don’t need to rinse it off.
You will see results within three weeks. Then you can start to taper off the use from every other day to eventually once or twice a week.

Whether or not to shave is a choice; fortunately, shaving irritation is now one too!
YIONN has developed the perfect product for every step in your shaving routine!
You’re fed up with it. Time and again, those red bumps, ingrown hairs, and itching after hair removal on your bikini line, armpits, and legs.
You feel frustrated and anything but sexy. No woman should have to feel that way. And that includes you.
First of all, I want to reassure
you. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your skin.
It’s actually just doing what it’s supposed to do. It reacts to the stress of hair removal, which causes all sorts of unwanted side effects, such as itching and red bumps.
Not the result we women want, so we need to give our skin and nature a helping hand.
And that is exactly what YIONN products
do!

YIONN Raka is truly a top product! A gentle solution for those annoying, painful ingrown hairs, especially when combined with the scrub.

I thought: you know what, I’ll just give it a try! OMG!!! I really should have done that sooner. I’m 37 now and for the first time, I dare to wear a bikini bottom with pride
. What a miracle cure! Not a single bit of irritation to be found. It’s still bizarre. And I really suffered from it.

A product that does what it promises, easy to use. I now have almost all the products and won’t use anything else.
Alice
After 2 weeks, I already noticed a difference. Almost no bumps and itching anymore after shaving. I’m definitely going to try more products.
Patricia Tikar
I’ve often used things like this but they never helped me, even though others were always satisfied with them, and I felt the same about
this product too, but I ordered it anyway and it took a bit longer for me, but it definitely helped!
Maria Ilgun
Much less irritation and bumps. The shaving gel and Raka are truly my favorites; last time I bought shaving foam out of necessity and immediately got bumps
and irritation again…

Free from your shaving irritation within 3 weeks: or your money back
That is my promise to you!
From certified nurse to hair removal expert:
I’m Wendy, the founder of YIONN. I know better than anyone what it’s like to go through life with shaving discomforts.
After desperately trying all sorts of ways and remedies for red shaving bumps and ingrown hairs and spending a lot of money, I was
sick of it.
I decided to find a solution for my shaving irritation myself that actually worked, and I succeeded!
I developed Raka, a caring lotion based on rose water, camphor, and willow bark. By applying a thin layer to the problem area, it easily and quickly calms the skin after hair removal, prevents red bumps, and lets the hair grow out again—instead of in.
And with that, I could finally say goodbye to my insecurity and discomfort.
Hallelujah.
When it later turned out that Raka worked not only for me but also for many other women, I started creating several other products around it that can make hair removal a pleasant experience again.
And because I am so convinced of how it works and I don’t want to keep your money in the rare case that you aren’t satisfied, I came up with the unique YIONN 30-day money-back guarantee (a guarantee you normally never get on hygiene products).
