"I'm Kelli I'm an aesthetician and makeup artist at Ulta Salon and cosmetics and I'm going to give you some tips on how you can remove razor bumps. One of the easiest things you can do is you can use an exfoliant. This is a grainy exfoliant with some salycidic acid in it. Salycidic acid is a really great ingredient that helps to pull in any impurities out of the follicles. Basically what causes razor bumps is clogging within the follicle. It becomes infected by bacteria. So this is going to help to pull that out of the pore. Another thing that you can do is to use a treatment spray, this has a lot of anti inflammatory in it such as aloe that's going to help to calm and soothe. It also helps to heal any ingrown hairs. Helps to heal and calm any razor bumps and also helps to prevent them from forming. Another thing that you can do if you are really plagued is you can use a peel. This is an alpha beta peel so you can actually do is take, it's a little peel pad and you can actually rub this all over the infected area and it's going to help to exfoliate the skin with alpha hydroxy in it and it's also going to help to pull any impurities out of the pores with the beta hydroxys in it. So those are some things that you can do to remove razor bumps."
