How to shave your legs without shaving cream.

Okay so you're on vacation and forgot the shaving cream. Or maybe you're at your boyfriends house and forgot it. Maybe you're at home and ran out...here are some substitutions.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• any of the following
• moisturizing lotion
• hair conditioner
• in a pinch a bar of soap
• dish soap

1. 
    

   First of all try to locate some moisturize lotion. This is the best substitute for shaving cream. If you are in a hotel, they probably have these small bottles around everywhere. If you are at your boyfriends house you may need a different substitution. If no lotion is available get some hair conditioner, bar soap, or dish soap.

2. 
    

   Be sure when using a substitution use lots of it! Except dish soap, this will make a huge mess if you use to much. But as for the lotion or conditioner, and bar soap, use plenty so you don't get razor burn. If using bar soap rub the bar up and down on your legs until you get a good coating before shaving. If you are using lotion or conditioner, it more then likely wont bubble up so visibly be sure to have a good thick amount.

3. Once you have a good amount on your leg, shave as you normally would, however be sure to moisturize your legs when you are finished.

Tips & Warnings

• If using any substitution be sure to clean out tub or shower very well when done because they can cause a serious slip and fall if you don't.
