'Bye bye, bumps': This No. 1 bestselling ingrown hair solution is down to a slick $20

For many of us, shaving is a necessary evil when it comes to attaining soft, smooth skin. But what about when shaving itself actually causes painful ingrown hairs, razor bumps and redness? Not exactly the outcome we had in mind. The good news is, there's a product thousands of Amazon reviewers swear by for combatting these uncomfortable skin woes — the No. 1 bestselling Tend Skin Solution. Its lightweight formula gets absorbed by the skin in seconds and takes as little as 24 hours to deliver results. Oh, and did we mention it's currently down to $20 (from $30)? That's 35% off!

It'll be smooth shaving with this top-rated treatment in your skincare arsenal.

Razor bumps and ingrown hairs might be small, but if you've ever had either, you know how itchy and painful they can be. Luckily, Tend Skin Solution has proven to be a game-changer for so many people, whether you shave your face, legs, armpits, bikini line — anywhere, really.

Its short ingredient list includes isopropyl alcohol, butylene glycol, acetylsalicylic acid, cyclomethicone and glycerin, which work together to help minimize the appearance of existing ingrown hairs and razor bumps while preventing new ones from forming. Since it contains both alcohol and acid, you might feel a slight burning sensation when applying, but even reviewers with sensitive skin assure us that the sting doesn't last long — and that the benefits far outweigh a moment of discomfort. That said, you can always go lightly on a small area first and see how it makes your skin feel.

To use, apply a thin layer to dry skin before and after shaving, though the retailer recommends using it twice daily — even if you're not shaving — for even better results. As your skin improves, you can reduce it to once per day, but resist slathering it on, because a dab'll do ya and you don't want to risk irritation. You can also use the solution to make waxing, electrolysis and laser treatments more comfortable, in addition to applying it to your face as a cleansing micro-peel for more radiant skin. It was formulated for use on all skin types, but again, you know your skin better than anyone, so ease in if you have to.

Nearly 37,000 Amazon customers were so impressed with the results they achieved using Tend Skin Solution, they signed right back on to give it a perfect five-star rating.

"I’ve dealt with horrendous ingrown hairs for years!" exclaimed a relieved reviewer. "I’ve tried everything to minimize them ... you name it, I tried it. This product has literally put everything I’ve tried to shame! ... I’ve been using it for about a month every day after I get out of the shower ... I haven’t gotten an ingrown since, and the ones I had healed! The smell is kind of strong, but so are the results. I also have pretty sensitive skin and I was worried about using it after I shave/wax — burns a little bit but it didn’t cause a flare-up. Can’t wait to not be insecure at the beach this summer!"

"Bye bye, bumps and redness," wrote another satisfied shaver. "Love this stuff! I used to never have issues with ingrown hairs until a few years ago, but one or two on the bikini line is enough to almost stop keeping things neat and clean. I bought this and have not had a single issue since ... It does sting a little for a few seconds, but it quickly goes away. I've had no red bumps or irritation ... NOTHING has worked like this. I've been recommending it to all my girlfriends."

"I have never had a product work better," raved a final fan. "Shaving ‘down there’ has given me many ingrown hairs over my 52 years. As soon as you feel a bump starting, put this on once and you will never have to worry again!"

At this low price, why not stock up on a few bottles?
