When it comes to dermaplaning devices, you really don’t need anything superfancy or pricey to get the smooth, fuzz-free skin you’re after—and Dorco Tinkle razors are proof. The humble, budget-friendly single-blade razor has been receiving praise for years and is basically the OG at-home dermaplaning tool. Similar to the Kitsch razors, these have plastic handles that are a little on the slippery side. But we didn’t have any accidents during testing, and found the tapered design of the blade itself to be great for those smaller areas on the face, like the eyebrows and the areas around the nose.
Best Steel: Tweezerman Facial Razor
- What we love: Made of high-quality stainless steel; sharp blade defuzzes really well; don’t have to replace the blade as often as other disposables
- What could improve: Blade may be too sharp for beginners
- Blade material: Stainless steel
- Number of blades included: 3
If your gripe with single-blade dermaplaning tools is that they tend to be made out of flimsy plastic, Tweezerman is where it’s at. Theirs is made of stainless steel, which gives it a very professional feel. In tests, we found this weight also helped with control, plus delivered a more effective defuzzing session that not only removed peach fuzz, but also effectively exfoliated skin. Heed our warning, though: The blade on this bad boy is no joke, so use caution if you’re a beginner.
It’s also worth noting that, even though the entire tool is stainless, the whole thing is disposable, which feels a bit wasteful. On the plus side, this dermaplaner is sharp enough that the brand says you can use it for two to three months before replacing—much longer than other disposables.
Best for Peach Fuzz Removal: StackedSkincare Dermaplaning Face Exfoliating Tool
- What we love: Very sharp blade; don’t have to replace as often as other disposables; hefty aluminum handle for better control
- What could improve: Expensive, especially considering it doesn’t come with any refill blades
- Blade material: Stainless steel
- Number of blades included: 1
Though undeniably more expensive than other disposable options, we liked the design of this tool. You don’t have to toss the whole thing when it’s time for a blade replacement—just the head, which is easy to pop on and off. The slim metal handle is easy to hold at the recommended 45-degree angle to effectively remove peach fuzz. We wish your initial purchase bought more than a single blade, especially considering the cost of refills, but each one is sharp enough to last several uses—about a month in our opinion. We also love that Stacked also makes precision replacement blades. They’re smaller than the standard ones and the most effective we tried to touch up small areas like the nose, upper lips, and eyebrows.
