How a close shave gave Rachel Hunter a fresh-faced glow: Former model shows how shaving with a RAZOR can exfoliate the skin and reduce wrinkles

In pursuit of a glowing complexion, women resort to fancy scrubs, expensive brushes - or simply a brisk rub with a rough cloth. But one technique they may not have tried is borrowing their husband's razor. 


Closely shaving the entire face (pictured top right and bottom right) is said to exfoliate the skin and reduce wrinkles, according to former model Rachel Hunter (inset and left), who highlights the technique in her TV beauty programme. In the show, the 46-year-old visits a beauty clinic in Japan - where the treatment is hugely popular - and has all the fine hair removed from her face and ears with a cut-throat razor. Its fans in Japan claim the method, known as Kao Sori, helps boost collagen production and open the pores, making it easier for the skin to absorb moisturiser.
