A smooth, comfortable shave is contingent on healthy skin, prompting award-winning razor brand Billie to break into body care by offering products designed to nourish and protect the skin before, during and after shaving. In the lineup, there are targeted body lotions and washes that address hydration, inflammation, brightening and detoxification individually. Key ingredients for supporting the skin barrier and enhancing overall comfort include oat milk, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, peptides and Vitamin C.
To introduce its cost-conscious body care essentials, Billie created a new campaign starring The Good Place actress and activist Jameela Jamil, who takes on the role of an adolescent navigating the body care aisle and sharing her grievances with the beauty industry to a high school classroom.
