Confession time: I used to dread summer. Not anymore. You see, my sensitive skin has always made me feel self-conscious in a swimsuit, especially around my bikini area. As a beauty -obsessed writer, I've dedicated myself to finding the best products that minimize issues like razor burn and ingrown hairs. And most importantly, I want to empower other women with similar skin struggles to feel confident. Trust me, you're not alone.
That's where my current beauty obsession comes in—the Tend Skin Solution. This magical little bottle of razor bump-ridding serum has become my go-to, and let me tell you, the results are almost instant. Pairing it with my electric trimmer has been a game-changer. Whether I remember to apply it before hitting the pool or beach, or use it religiously, it never fails to deliver.
So, what exactly is the Tend Skin Solution? It's a life-changing serum that practically zaps ingrown hairs and those pesky, red little dots under the armpits, bikini area, and anywhere you shave. Curious? Keep reading for my Tend Skin Solution review and find out why this product needs to be in your arsenal.
How I Tested It
I first learned about Tend Skin Solution on TikTok (yes, TikTok). I've tried several popular liquid-based solutions claiming to banish razor bumps and prevent ingrown hairs, but none of them really worked. Sure, there would be a slight improvement in discoloration along my bikini line and armpits immediately after use, but nothing long-lasting. Still, the internet hype surrounding Tend Skin Solution made me curious enough to give it a try.
I've been using the solution since June of this year. I opted for the smaller size of four fluid ounces, unsure if it would live up to its claims. Surprisingly, it has lasted me the entire summer (three months of daily use).
Upon first use, I applied the liquid to my freshly shaved bikini line and underarms by dampening a cotton ball and gently dabbing it across the areas of concern. I won't sugarcoat it—the solution smells like rubbing alcohol. And as someone with sensitive skin, it stings for about 10 seconds, especially on the underarm area. However, I was impressed to see my razor bumps fade almost instantly. Could this be the solution to all my swimsuit problems?
I followed this routine every time I showered for about a month, shaving my bikini line once a week and my underarms every two days. After just three weeks, I noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my bikini line and underarms. The progress pictures I took speak for themselves. The once-patchy red bumps and deeply rooted ingrown hairs have nearly vanished. And most importantly, my skin feels healthier too.

The Results
Every time I use Tend Skin Solution, I notice a visible difference. However, it's essential to apply it consistently for long-term results. Whenever I fall out of the habit, my skin reminds me.
It's worth noting that the combination of shaving with unscented shave cream and a clean razor, exfoliating with gloves, and applying the Tend Skin Solution has improved the overall appearance of my bikini line and underarms. However, everyone's skin is different. If the solution works for my extremely sensitive skin, I have no doubt it will benefit all skin types.
Final Verdict
I'm down to just a splash or two left in my Tend Skin Solution bottle, and I can confidently say it's become a must-have in my shave routine. It's literally after-shave for your bikini line, underarms, and more, and it took me years to discover it.
If you struggle with sensitive skin, razor bumps, or ingrown hairs, consider this your sign to grab this magic in a bottle for year-round relief. I used to think laser hair removal was the answer, but turns out clear skin costs just $20 thanks to this serum.
Knowing I won't have to feel self-conscious about my underarms while wearing a strapless dress at my sister's wedding later this year brings me so much joy. I can't believe I didn't discover this product sooner. Trust me, you won't regret it. If you need me, I'll be stocking up on Tend Skin Solution!
