How to Get Silky Smooth Summer Legs with Metrin
Summer is finally here in the Northern Hemisphere! That means longer days, beach weather, and shorts season. We love seeing the end of winter, but it also means it’s time to get our legs ready for the spotlight. Finding a shaving routine that works with your skin (and not against it) can be a challenge—especially if you’ve dealt with razor bumps, irritation, or dull-looking skin after shaving. But what if your existing skincare system doubled as the perfect shaving solution? Enter: the Metrin Skincare System. You might have already heard about some of Metrin’s unconventional uses (like using Protective Lotion on burns), but one of our favorite not-so-secret hacks is this: you can use the full Metrin system to shave—yes, really. It works beautifully on your legs, bikini line, underarms, and anywhere else you shave.
Why Shaving Can Be a Problem
Razor bumps, dark pores, ingrown hairs, and that stinging sensation after shaving aren’t just annoying—they can also cause longer-term skin issues like inflammation and hyperpigmentation.
Shaving problems are usually caused by:
- Dull razors
- Dry shaving
- Harsh shaving creams with irritating ingredients
- Lack of exfoliation and proper aftercare
The good news? You can prevent all of that with the right tools and routine
“I had always hated how my legs looked after shaving—razor bumps, dark accentuated pores, and irritated skin. I heard you can use Metrin to shave, so I gave it a go. I used the products and did the steps exactly how they suggest, and I was honestly amazed. No razor bumps, invisible pores, no visible hair follicles, and my skin feels so, so smooth!”

Step 1: Gather Your Tools
Before you get started, make sure you have everything you need:
- A clean washcloth
- A clean, sharp razor (3–4 blades)
- #1 Deep Cleanser – softens skin and hair
- #2 Lathering Cleanser – gently exfoliates and lifts debris
- #3 Vita Conditioner – hydrates and protects
- #4 Protective Lotion – soothes and guards against bacteria
- #5 Enriched Vita Conditioner – nourishes with vitamins and botanicals
Step 2: Prep Your Skin
- Soften Hair & Skin: Start by wetting your legs (or any area you’re shaving) with warm water or a warm washcloth. Even better? Hop into a warm bath or shower for 10–15 minutes. This opens follicles, softens hair, and reduces the chance of ingrowns or razor rash.
- Cleanse & Exfoliate: Apply the #1 Deep Cleanser to remove surface oil and dirt, then rinse and wipe off. Follow with #2 Lathering Cleanser, rinse, and gently wipe. This removes dead skin cells and excess bacteria, setting you up for a smoother shave.
Step 3: Shave with the Cleanser
Instead of a traditional shaving cream, apply the #1 Deep Cleanser again as your shaving cream. The blend of botanical oils and water softens skin and lubricates your shave without the harsh chemicals.
Use long, even strokes. For legs, shave against the grain for a closer shave. For sensitive areas like the bikini line or underarms, shave with the grain to reduce irritation. Shaving Tips:
- Rinse your razor after every stroke
- Avoid going over the same spot more than once
- Be gentle around sensitive areas
“I’ve been using Metrin to shave my legs for about a year now. It’s transformed my routine! I exfoliate with Deep or Lathering Cleanser, then shave. Afterward, I moisturize with Vita Conditioner. Smooth legs, no bumps, no irritation—it’s now my favorite part of my Everything Shower.”— Maddy, P
Step 4: Rinse and Pat Dry
After shaving, rinse thoroughly with warm (not hot) water. Pat your skin gently with a clean towel—no rubbing!
Step 5: Aftercare
- Moisturize: Apply #3 Vita Conditioner while your skin is still slightly damp to lock in hydration and form a breathable, non-comedogenic barrier.
- Tone:Use #4 Protective Lotion to soothe and eliminate bacteria. It’s especially helpful for the bikini line and underarms—two areas that are often prone to irritation. The aloe vera and allantoin help restore your skin’s natural balance.
- Nourish: Finish with #5 Enriched Vita Conditioner. Packed with certified organic botanicals, vitamins, fatty acids, and amino acids, it hydrates and supports your skin barrier.
Real talk: We get it. Sometimes, you just want to finish up fast. If you’re in a rush? Just apply Enriched Vita Conditioner post-shave and call it a day (shhh… we won’t tell). Your skin will still feel smooth and nourished.
