Veet Hair Removal Cream for Sensitive Skin Review

Lets have a TMI spoiler here. I don't use this on my legs. I used to wax my legs so my growth is minimal - my nether regions however, need to be looked after. Noone is going to want to visit if the front lawn isn't looked after (amiright?!) Anyway, I use this all the time and I LOVE it, admitedly, the smell is kinda weird and lingers for about a day. I'm used to it now, so it doesn't bother me, however I can see how it would put people off. Still, it does what it says it will, I always repurchase, I have tried other brands & didn't like them as much, so I will continue to repurchase this until I die or win the lotto to get laser.

My first impression of this product was "great, it lasts way longer than shaving!". Then whilst reading the instructions, I was a bit wary of the warning of "chemical burns"!!! Any product with a risk of chemical burns cannot be good to have absorbed into your skin so that was straight away a turn-off for me! I trialed the product and found it easy to use and didn't tingle or feel itchy like other Veet product I have tried in the past. As a mum though, I did struggle a wee bit with having to do it within ten minutes, as I tend to get sidetracked a lot!! It was easy to remove with the little spatula they provide, however it certainly didn't remove all the hair and I still needed to shave patches afterwards!! You also cannot use this Veet Hair Removal Cream on any scars, sunburn or broken skin, so you have to shave around those areas also. So monitoring my legs in the days after using the Veet Hair Removal Cream, just four days later I already needed to shave my legs!! So a thumbs down for me, I would rather just shave and save time and money in the process! I am just one person however, so hopefully it works better for some other people!! =)

I was chosen to test out this product, and I honestly came out disappointed with the product.

The first thing I did not like about it is the smell. The smell was so bad, I ha to hold in my breath when I was applying it.

The second problem I found with it is you aimlessly stand around your bathroom for 5 mins doing nothing. I thankfully thought of putting a mud mask on while I was waiting to shower but for me, I don't like waiting around for things like that. I would rather grab a decent razor and shave it off in 5 mins then wait around for it to work.

Lastly, it did not remove all of my hair on my leg, in fact, it removed hardly any of it! My hair is very thick and stubborn so that is probably why. It may work out better for those who have lighter/fairer hairs on their legs, but for me it wasn't working.

Overall, i would not re-purchase this product. I think I'll stick to my razors and waxing.

I was given this product to review and it was my first time using a hair removal cream. I will say that it did leave my legs smooth but only for 1 day. The tube doesn't go far at all and I used around half just to cover my legs. I then had to keep it on for at least 10 minutes for any hair to come off and the spatula did not work remove all of the hair. It really didn't feel worth the effort of waiting 10 minutes just for this to work, shaving gets the same job done without the awkward wait. But if you are a fan of removal creams then this won't dry your skin out.

I absolutely loved this! I used it on my legs even with short hair and it worked! my legs turned out as smooth as anything! I have used other hair removal products before and they made my skin burn and itch but this product didn't do that at all, and it removed all my hair unlike others aswell i would definitely use this again in a heartbeat! I recommend it to everyone! Totally in love.

I was chosen to review this product so I decided to go a week without shaving my legs to trial. It I was very time consuming to apply all of the cream on both my entire legs and I was left standing awkwardly in my bathroom waiting for 5 minutes as directed. I did a test after 5 minutes and no hair had been removed so waited another 5 minutes. After 10 minutes in total the hairs on my legs came off with ease. The result wasn't "silly smooth legs for up to twice as long as shaving" I was silly smooth but unfortunately only for one day. I shaved again within the next two days. This product does work but personally I prefer shaving as it's easily done in the shower and doesn't mean I have to stand awkwardly in my bathroom waiting for the cream to do its magic.

I use this product regularly.being of the age when everything drops and grows,i need a product that does what it says.the only thing i can say in the negative would be some of the stronger hairs say put but come out easily with tweezers straight after treating with this hair removal cream.

My first beauty reviews trial! I was super excited to get this in the mail, and wanted to trial it the best I did, and that's what I have done!

I first trialed this product on my arms, (yes I hate hair on my arms) however the results weren't super impressive! I left it on for the right amount of time, and when I started to take if off, my arms became very red, however this slowly died down! I found it did half the job, and I ended up tidying it up myself as not all the hairs were removed!

I then tried it out on my legs, but decided this time to use it when my legs weren't so hairy, and the results were better! It left my legs nice and smooth, and most of the hair was removed, which was a better result than before, also not as much redness this time!

Overall I think this product is good, but it does require a little patience and time! I don't think its something I would use all the time, partly because you do have to wait 5 minutes, and I like to get my hair removal over and done with faster than that! It also seems to struggle with removing hair when it is thicker and more of it, so best use it on shorter hair!

The smell is also a little off putting, I have no idea how to explain it, but its not very pleasant!

I think i'll be grabbing for this product when I feel like having a pamper session, however won't be something I use often!

My first impression upon getting this product is that it came in nice packaging. More often than not, hair removal creams come in packaging that are too bulky or are encased in hard plastic making squeezing and getting enough product out impossible. This came in a pastel coloured, malleable plastic tube which I appreciated.

It has a pleasant scent that I doubt a lot of people would hate, it smells fresh mixed with the smell of every other hair removal cream.

The texture is very unlike any hair removal creams I’ve ever used, it’s smooth and is reminiscent of a fast absorbing lotion in terms of how it feels on the skin.

I tried in on my underarms and my legs. I’m not brave enough to try it on my bikini line but it is possible to use the product on that area.

The product claims to:

Provide smoothness for twice as long as shaving – I don’t believe that’s true. My underarm and leg hair grew at the same rate it would if I had shaved them.

Works close to the root – I’m a bit iffy on this statement because it was true for my legs but not for my underarms.

Works on short hair – this clam is definitely true, it did work well on my leg hairs which are short and fine.

You will have “silky-soft, cared-for skin” after using it – this claim comes from the fact that the product contains Vitamin E and aloe vera and I do agree with it. I have sensitive skin and it seemed to leave my legs and underarms softer.

Hair regrowth feels softer – I also agree with this statement, my underarm hair is thick and as it grew after using this hair removal cream, the hair felt softer and less coarse.

So to recap, I do love and semi dislike certain things about this product. It definitely works but I wouldn’t go and rush out to buy it when it’s gone. I think it’s your bog standard hair removal cream. It wasn’t great but it did its job and my sensitive skin wasn’t irritated in the slightest. This is a great product for someone who wants to try out hair removal creams for the first time.
