Fans on TikTok insist the dermaplaning blades from Bondi Blades give them a ‘nice canvas’ for makeup, leaving their skin feeling ‘crazy smooth’
The Bondi Blades Derma Razor, which costs £8.37 for a pack of three, will remove unwanted hair and manually exfoliate the skin leaving you with a baby-smooth complexion.
It’s one of the easiest, fastest and pain-free ways to treat unwanted hair – especially compared to other hair removal techniques such as threading, and waxing.
It’s also the next best thing to professional dermaplaning – a deeper treatment with a surgical-grade scalpel.
Fans on TikTok insist the dermaplaning blades from Bondi Blades give them a ‘nice canvas’ for makeup, leaving their skin feeling ‘crazy smooth’.
Ali Clarke, from Melbourne, launched Bondi Blades in May 2020 after noticing a gap in the market for the DIY blades that removes the minuscule ‘peach fuzz’ hairs from your face.
The brand is now stocked in over 1,000 stores across Australia and New Zealand.
Six months prior, in 2019, she had a salon dermaplaning facial and quickly noticed the benefits, but with treatments costing more than $150, she couldn’t afford regular visits.
At-home dermaplaning offers a range of benefits; it removes tiny hairs and encourages skin cell renewal as it removes dead skin cells, leaving the skin super smooth with an even surface
‘After the appointment, I had a lightbulb moment and started researching how dermaplaning can be done at home to save money,’ the 39-year-old told Daily Mail Australia.

‘It helps remove the tiny ‘peach fluff’ hairs on your face and allows makeup to look flawless as a result,’ Ali said.
The skin-shaving treatment will also allow the skin to absorb skincare products more efficiently, resulting in a brighter-looking complexion.

And if you’re concerned about thick, dark hair regrowth, TikTok users squashed speculation. One TikToker said, ‘Proof is in the pudding. I have been balding my skin for at least two years now, and I’m not Teen Wolf yet.’
In a Bondi Blades blog post Ali added: ‘Let’s get this rumour done with once and for all: no matter where it grows on your body, shaving does not cause hair to grow back thicker or darker.
‘Many people think that shaving your legs or underarms causes thicker hair growth. This is false. It’s biologically impossible for hair to grow back thicker because of shaving.
‘Shaving simply creates a blunt tip on the hairs, which many people interpret as greater thickness.’
