Finding Fur

For weeks I had been seeing ads for a product called Fur Oil almost every day, multiple times a day as I scrolled through my Instagram feed. A brand called Fur was marketing their product as a pubic hair oil. Yes, you read that right. An oil for the hair on your nether regions, your downstairs area, your secret garden, or whatever you may call it.

What caught my attention is that I had never heard of or seen anything like it. There aren’t many oils out there designed to take care of the hair down there. I know that body hair isn’t the cutest thing to talk about, but I believe in self-care, so why not down there?

We tend to focus on the hair on our head and the skin on our face, and we neglect almost everything else. I know that I ignore the redness and bumps on my bikini line that is a result of shaving, simply because I didn’t know there was something I could do to fix them.

Fur Oil is a product for anyone with hair, no matter where it is on your body. The multi-use oil can be used on underarms, eyebrows, beards, chests, and anywhere where you have hair growing out of your body. It is formulated to soften the hair and clean out pores that lead to ingrown hairs. Sounds amazing, right? Softer hair, calmer skin, fewer in-grown hairs, it honestly sounded too good to be true.

I had to find out if this product could do all that it was promising it could, so I ordered my own Fur Oil to find out for myself.

My Fur Experience

Being Italian comes along with a lot of hair, pretty much everywhere. The hair on my head is thick and curly, my eyebrows are about as thick as they come, I have a substantial amount of hair on my arms, and like most women I’ve been shaving my underarms and legs as soon as I could use a razor. My bikini line is especially sensitive, I regularly experience razor burn and I am prone to ingrown hairs that result in scarring.

Fur Oil appealed to me because it seemed that I had finally found a product that offered a solution to the problems I had been experiencing for so long. There was only one thing left to do, try it!

First off, the product comes in lovely packaging and smells so nice. What’s even better is that it works! After a few days of using the oil I could already see a difference in the way my bikini line and underarms looked. I was experiencing less redness and my skin was softer than it was before.

A little more than a week after consistently using the product, my bikini line looked completely different. I was experiencing zero redness, my skin was so soft, looked so much healthier, and I haven’t experienced an ingrown hair since I began using it.

I was truly blown away by how well this product lived up to its reputation and completely recommend this product to anyone with hair (literally anywhere). I can see this becoming a staple product for me and hope you give it a try as well. Check them out here!
