Peach Fuzz Is Dimming Your Glow—Here's What To Do

Think your glow should be brighter? The missing step in your routine might surprise you.


What’s Dulling Your Glow?

You’ve got the highlighter. You’ve nailed the placement. You’ve even added the dewy setting spray. But still… your glow isn’t glowing. What gives?

 

Here’s the glow-breaking truth: facial fuzz might be diffusing your shine. Even the finest peach fuzz scatters light and blocks your skincare from absorbing deeply.

 

In this blog, we’re showing you the one game-changing prep step: shaving your face—smarter. And how our bestselling Hair Identifier Spray can help you do it safely and effectively.

 

Why Fuzz Ruins Glow (And Foundation, Too)

Your face has soft, fine hairs called vellus hair—completely normal, but often the reason makeup doesn’t sit quite right. These tiny hairs create a layer that:

 

  • Reflects light unevenly (aka: dulls your highlighter)
  • Traps foundation and powder
  • Blocks full skincare absorption

 

The solution? Smooth skin = clear canvas = better glow.

Shave—but Smarter

You don’t need to go full razor-blade panic. Facial shaving (a.k.a. dermaplaning) is a gentle, effective way to remove peach fuzz and dead skin cells.

 

But most people miss spots. And no one wants to guess with a blade.

 

That’s where Hair Identifier Spray changes the game:

 

  • Fine mist highlights invisible hairs under light
  • No more missed fuzz zones
  • Perfect for cheeks, jawline, lip, and brow edges

 

Tone It Up

After shaving, your skin is more receptive to skincare. This is the best moment to apply a soothing, alcohol-free toner with calming ingredients like rosewater or aloe.

 

Not only does this refresh your skin, but it also balances your pH before makeup.

Glow On, Gorgeous 

Now that your skin is smooth, go in with your favorite glow products. Whether you use a powder, cream, or liquid highlighter—it’ll finally lay flat, reflect cleanly, and stay radiant longer.

 

Bonus: Your foundation, blush, and even sunscreen will sit more evenly too.


Is This Safe? Will My Hair Grow Back Thicker?

Don’t worry—shaving vellus hair does not change the texture, color, or growth rate. It grows back just as soft and fine as before. The key is using gentle pressure, a clean tool, and prep like our Hair Identifier Spray to avoid over-shaving.
