Hair Removal Products: The At-Home IPL Device
Luma Rx Full Body Hair Removal Device, $449

While this device seems spendy at first, consider that you'll never have to buy a razor ever again. That's because after three treatments, the areas you've used the device on will remain hair-free essentially until the end of time (though you may have to touch up small areas at times). It uses Professional Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to disrupt your hair growth cycle, and two weeks later, the hair falls out. And you can use it everywhere -- including your face and bikini line.

If it sounds too good to be true, that's because it is for some people. Since the device targets melanin in the hair bulb, it won't work on those with darker skin tones because the light energy will be absorbed by the melanin in the skin. Read: It can cause burns. And there's not enough melanin in light blonde, red or white/gray hair for the device to work.

Hair Removal Products: The Upgraded Electric Razor
Remington Smooth Glide Rechargeable Shaver, $39.99

Razor burn and nicks: two common, unwanted side effects of using traditional razors. Enter: this superstar product. It gives you a close shave every single time, and works incredibly fast thanks to the dual-sided trimmer. It's like a dude's electric razor -- so much gentler than using blades -- except you can use it in the shower with shaving cream. And it holds 20 hours of charge.

Hair Removal Products: Exfoliator + Wax
Nad's Exfoliating Body Wax Strip, $8.99

Consider these strips your one stop shop for supersmooth, sexy legs. On the outside of each strip is a gentle exfoliator that helps the wax work more efficiently and makes skin soft. (Think of it like a piece of beautifying sand paper.) When you peel the exfoliating paper apart, you get two wax strips to nix unwanted hair. Yes, it's a little more painful than your razor, but results last for up to two weeks.

Hair Removal Products: The Organic Option
Parissa Organic Wax, $19.99

Made with organic cane sugar, this wax removes hair gently (well, as gently as ripping out your hair by the follicles is possible) -- making it ideal for DIY-waxers with sensitive skin. It's also washable, so if you chicken out -- no judgment -- you can simply rinse it off.
