Veet

[caz21]

Has anyone tried the new Veet in shower hair removal cream? if so does it work (complete removal)? and how long does it last? Thanks in advance ! xx

it does work, it lasts about a week for me

its great cos you can put it on before you get in the shower, then get in, wash your hair without any of it coming off, and voila!!!!

But dont you have to have quite a bit of hair growth first for it to work?Thats the bit I hate - having to go a few days feeling rough

[bellasasha]

i wouldnt say so, i started using it the day after i finished shaving my legs

Yeah thats what I hate too Kazzianne!! then again I end up waiting a month to get waxed which only lasts about a week and half anyway!

Thanks Sasha! I think it might just be worth trying! Just one more question though did you find it stung coz my skin can be quite sensitive! x

The solution is Laser Hair removal. I had a really hair face and neck and had these treated, then decided to get my legs and underarms treated too.

I have had a couple of treatments on my lower leg and the hair that does come through is sparse and very fine.

It hurts and is expensive, but is most certainly worth it.

i have sensitive skin too and i used the one for sensitive skin and it was fine...honest

Years ago I managed to burn my underarms using Immac cream. It seems that the cream melts/burns the hair to make it dissolve - but that skin is made up of the same basic components. So there is the potential for problems.

I really didn't like the cream, using it for the correct length of time meant that it didn't really work. But leaving it on for longer meant my skin was red or sore. And I don't have sensitive skin.
