Women shaving their faces

I was at a private pilates studio with my BBF's. We spend an hour getting some serious girl talk and exercise in.

So the topic comes up of women using a razor to shave their faces...and ohhhh yeah all my girl friends seem to do this. They say it makes their skin softer and exfoliates and helps with acne. They do it only once or twice a month. It wasn't really so much about the hair thing but that was part of it.

Anyone else do this?
