Showerthought: Dermaplaning at home with a $15 pack of razors

I tried those fancy dermaplaning tools from the beauty store for like $30 each, but then I picked up a 6-pack of eyebrow razors for $12 on Amazon. They do the same job without the markup - has anyone else found a cheaper alternative that works just as well?

Wait, are we really pretending a $12 multi-pack of eyebrow razors is just as safe and effective as something designed for your whole face? I've seen friends try that and end up with razor burn or little nicks around their jawline that took days to heal. Those cheap blades are usually way sharper and more aggressive than what pros use, and they're not meant to glide over larger areas like your cheeks or forehead. I'd rather pay the $30 for a tool that's actually gonna be gentler on my skin and less likely to mess up my barrier, honestly.

Right, I love when my skincare routine turns into a tiny ninja sword fight with my own face. Nothing says "self care" like wondering if you just gave yourself a micro-shave on your cheekbone that'll scar for a week.
