Worked great for me! I have very fine hair, so I think that may be why I had such good results. I'll be using this product on my legs instead of shaving from now on.

I used it as I get hair on my chin and also used it on my upper lip. I left it on for the required time and was pleased to find no hair, however three days after I did the hair removal process my skin around where I used the product is very oily (I do have oily skin but there is a very big difference in the texture of my skin from where it was used). My make up now doesn't say on my chin and upper lip area and like I mentioned there is a huge difference in the texture from my cheeks to my chin where this didn't happen before I used the product. I have tried everything to get rid of this but it just wont go!

I was scared to try this but I was; sick of shaving, cant handle waxing pain, epilators give me nasty ingrown hairs... And I needed an alternative method for hair removal cream over my 5 month old C-Section scar. (Since the C-Section scar keloided, it is impossible to shave over it without cutting myself *eek!*)


But I did a lot of research and read many reviews, and decided to try hair removal cream. I went with Veet because I never heard it caused pain like a lot of Nair reviews I read.


I still didn't want to risk having any pain, so I decided to get my skin used to it slowly.
So for a few days I put it on for 3 minutes, and then I wiped it off. After my shower, I used my towel to buff off the rest of hairs that the scraper didn't get. My legs and arms were flawless and SO SOFT. (I even took the risk of applying it to my entire bikini area and C-Section scar, and it worked amazing! But it did sting on one spot for an hour after the first time. But now it doesn`t sting and is the only way I have been able to remove hair from my C-Section scar.)


**TIP** One thing I learned from another reviewer, is to apply hair removal cream on DAMP SKIN. And it really makes ALL the difference. (I tried it on dry skin as well, with not as great of results.) So what I do now is have a bath, and then towel dry my legs, and then apply the hair removal cream.


The other major benefit to this product, is that it exfoliates! My legs have never felt smoother, and the ingrown hairs I developed from epilating are going away too.



Also, the last coolest thing I`ve recently learned about this product is that it is only rated a "6" on the Skin Deep® Cosmetic Database:

http://www.ewg.org/skindeep/product/242291/Veet_Hair_Removal_Gel_Cream%2C_Sensitive_Formula/


And the shaving cream I used was worse for me, and rated an "8!"

http://www.ewg.org/skindeep/product/25771/Skintimate_Moisturizing_Shave_Gel%2C_Soothing_Lavender/


I would have thought chemicals that could burn your hair off would be worse for you than the chemicals in shaving cream, but I was wrong! My shaving cream is worse for me.


PS. I highly recommend the site Skin Deep® Cosmetic Database, if you don`t want to kill yourself just to look pretty. (I always try to find a lower risk product.)

Removed hair very well, but this brand tests on animals so I won't be buying it again.

Very effective, doesnt cause irritation.

Actually i wanted to post a review on Body Natur sensitive with Aloe Vera Extract(a mousse), but i can't find the product on this site. i insist on posting my reviews to warn fellow consumers.

The Body Natur sensitive with Aloe Vera Extract causes irritation on my skin. well, i tried twice, once on my legs it caused redness, itchiness and the basic function- hair removing, is not effective.Since i bought it, i gave it a try on my arm, where i did not apply any hair removing cream prior to that, and it still cause irritation.

Product fails, and the online customer service also fails. i was like given questions to answer and again and again, all in all they just want to prove that i don't know how to read instructions and the product is perfect.Dissatisfied with the mousse!

I asked someone to buy me Veet facial wax strips, and she got me this by accident. Because it said "Facial Kit" and "Sensitive Formula" and I've used depilatories before, I figured, "Why not?"

Bad idea.

I used this on my upper lip and although it says to leave it on for 5 minutes, it starts tingling and stinging within a minute. Call me foolhardy, but I've used this multiple times (still on my upper lip) varying the layer of thickness with which I apply this product, and it still begins to hurt in a minute or two. Plus the cream usually requires more than 5 minutes before hair actually starts coming off. After finally washing it off and applying finishing cream, there were some small hair follicles still visible and my upper lip was red. The follicles were large enough to be noticed but too small to be waxed (and it's not good to wax right after a depilatory either).

After multiple tries, I figured my face was just allergic to it. I say my face because I now use the kit for my underarms, where it doesn't sting, although the hair removal is still less than stellar. The results are similar to the stubble that grows about 24 hours after shaving.

I don't know the price of this product since it was bought for me and I have no intention of repurchasing. As for the packaging, I found that the green tip on one side of the application tool has begun to come off and separate from the handle so one lipstick off for that. In other words, stay away from this product!

:Nothing special: I used this on my legs.
-It states to leave on for 5-10 mins; after 6 mins I tested out its power and it didn't remove much hair, so I left it on for the full 10. It did an okay job with removing hair, it left some patches; I had to go over it with a razor.

I haven't tried it on any other body area's yet.

The sensitivity is good. I had no reaction at all; and my skin is usually pretty sensitive.

I hate the packing. It's got a pump, but a plug to prevent leaking. If something taps on it with the plug though, it will leak out. I can't seem to get the pump to stay down/locked - I've tried and just end up squirting the product all over the place. ...This bottle is not safe to travel with.

Not a very nice smell either; reminds me of the stuff they use to perm hair at a salon.

I don't plan to purchase another bottle; but I do intend to finish what is left in this one.

I have this, though in the spray-on packaging. Ladies, do not even bother with purchasing it in the spray version. It ends up being very messy, drippy, and makes it impossible to get an even coat. Spray it on your hand and it will fly everywhere. I can tell the product itself works extremely well, however. I'm pretty sure if I had been able to get an even coat on, the hair removal would've been almost flawless. The spray-on canister barely contains enough product for one use, which is a waste to me.

Will buy again, just not the spray-on version of this product.

I use it mainly on my legs, on the calf areas. They work alright, and remove most of the hairs, but I need to leave them on for the full 10mins. By then, my calfs have started to sting though. Also, it makes my skin look bumpy, like I have razor bumps on them after I use it, but the bumps die down after a couple hours so its alright- probably too sensitive to the creme. The product isn't very lasting- when using only on both my calfs, a whole tube lasts only about 3 half applications. This means when I'm using it on my 4th application, I can only use it on one calf and have to open a new tube to apply on my other calf. Have repurchased several times, and probably will repurchase again, I just wished they give more product to last me longer.




Update: Its been a looong time since I used hair removal creams, since I went back to shaving. In anyway, when cleaning out my cupboard the other day, I found a tube that was 7 months expired, and decided to use it so it didn't go to waste. It works just as well as it did before the expiry date, so I am happy. One thing though, I feel that hair removal cream tends to work a whole lot better on flat areas like the calfs as opposed to underarms (I have tried this product on it, but it works poorly). I have decided to up the 3 lippies I previously gave to a 4 as comparing this brand to another one, this works way better.

I use this on my legs, upper lip, & bikini area. Does it get rid of every single hair? No, but find me one cream hair remover that does. Like most cream hair removers, it easily removes fine hair but will leave behind some coarser hairs. Still, it only takes a second to shave the hairs the cream didnt dissolve. Be sure you spot test before using it. Overall I really like it.

Well, let me start off by saying that if you (like me) are interested in getting this so that you can avoid shaving your legs or bikini or underarms.... forget about it. it will remove about 25% of the hair even if left on the entire 10 minutes (max).

But, not wanting this to be a complete waste of my money, I tried it on my face, and it worked extremely well on my upper lip, and got rid of about 90% of the hair, but it did irritate my skin and make it red for a little bit... but it is still worth it.

Basically, it only works on extremely fine hair (aka face) and with the size of the tube, if you are using it on your face, you have a giant supply.

I love this stuff. I wax my lower legs and then follow up a day or two later with veet to get the thinner shorter hairs waxing didn't get and for my upper legs. It works really well plus it makes your legs super soft almost like a conditioner for your skin! I usually have trouble with irritation from shaving so I tried this waxing/veet combo and I love it! As a note I used the Parissa body sugar wax in combo with this product.

I bought this removal gel cream on sale for about USD $7.50 today just to see what it's like. Left it on my legs for about 5 minutes and used the attached bladeless razor. Hair came right off, and legs feel smooth now. My skin rarely reacts to products, so with this sensitive formula there wasn't any irritation at all for me. I'm quite happy with this and will definitely purchase this again.

This was pretty good. I only wax, but for my bikini, like reveiwer before me I got a rash from where the wax irritated my skin (I didn't buy the wax for sensitive skin!)so I decided to give this a shot. Firstly the smell was still pretty bad. Not terrible, but it was definatley there- I didn't mind this so much though because the smell didn't linger on my skin. The cream was thick and didn't drip- which was definatley a plus. After the recommended time the cream took all hairs off, but you could still see the root of the hair a bit. Good, product, would probably buy again, but I love the finish waxing gives me and I think I will stick to that- only the stuff for sensitive skins though!

I used this on my bikini area and it worked alright, not great but not horrible either. However, where this stuff really shines is when used on the face. I used it on my upper lip and not only did it not irritate my skin (usually I look like I have a chemical burn) but when used with the bladeless plastic thingy, it completely removes all the hair. Very happy with this, even if I can't use it on my bikini area.

I used a depilatory back in college (I think it was Sally Hansen) and had terrible results. It smelled horrible, irritated my skin, and to top it off, wasn't even very effective. I always ended up shaving after using it to remove the rest of the hair, which of course, just added more irritation. After a few months, I gave up and threw out the product, and I never tried another depilatory. Until now. Overall, I don't mind shaving, except for my bikini area, which always gets lots of bright red, uncomfortable shaving bumps. I've tried everything to reduce the ill effects of shaving in that area, but nothing works. Waxing is just as irritating, so I finally decided to give a depilatory another try. I'd read good things about Veet, so I bought this, since it's for sensitive skin. I've only used it once on my bikini area (and nowhere else), but so far I'm pleased. I left it on for the maximum 10 minutes (I wanted to make sure it worked), and then I removed it with a damp wash cloth. (The enclosed Perfect Touch Tool seems pretty useless and awkward to me.) I was amazed that it actually removed my hair, and it caused absolutely no irritation. It smells a little but it's pretty mild. Because my hair is dark, I can still see the roots just under the skin, but I've decided that's much less noticible than bright red razor bumps. My skin is just so smooth now. I may try this on other areas and update as I do. But for now, I definitely recommend this for sensitive, finicky bikini areas. UPDATE: The package says not to use this on facial skin, but the ingredients are identical to the ingredients in Veet Facial Kit, so I decided to use it on my upper lip anyway. It did a great job of removing my hair (just as good or better than waxing). It did irritate my facial skin; it turned bright red and really freaked out my husband, who said, "Don't use that on your face anymore." But the redness disappeared after about half an hour; the redness from waxing lasts all day. I think I'll keep using this on my facial hair, and it's so much cheaper than getting professional waxing (I'm too inept to wax at home).
