Although I enjoyed this product I am undecided if it is worth the extra hassle when compared to shaving. This product left my skin very moisturised which I don't often get from shaving but only left my skin smooth for three days. Although I am happy to use what I have left of this product I think if I had to choose between this and shaving I would probably pick shaving.

Ok I have super sensitive skin so this still didn't really help with that at all. It did the job and removed hair, but there were still a few patches present!
I still found the smell wasn't pleasant! I would use it again but it's annoying that it costs $16 but doesn't go far at all!!
I used to use this product when I first started removing leg hair back when I was 13. I stopped using it as a friend told me that hair removal creams darken the skin and I didn't want to risk that. After some research as to whether or not this was true (it's not) I am back and so happy to be!
It comes in a little tube which is nice and easy to get out. One tube would probably last 3-5 uses, depending on how much hair you have, and on how many areas you are using this. It also comes with a spatula that not only is great for spreading the product on your leg, but also really handy for when washing it off.
It has a really strong odour that is very chemically, so stay in a ventilated area when using this. I also recommend not getting it on your clothes as it stains like bleach.
It's a nice thick whipped consistency, but feels super light, and is easily spread.
The first time I used it, I waited the recommended time, and then washed it off, and was shocked to see that not one single hair had budged. I did it however, I sat for a good 45minutes (I know its way more than the recommendation, but nothing happened to my skin and I was fine) This worked like a charm, every single little hair went bye bye. Every time I used this after my second time, I found that 15minutes is perfectly enough to get rid of all the hairs.
I also like to use the spatula like I would a razor, in that when i'm washing it off, I pull the spatula in the directions a razor would go, and I find that it really helps remove every single last bit of hair - When I don't do this, I find that I have a few hairs here and there that I have to go back in with a real razor and shave off. So I really recommend that.
This is best used on the legs, and arms I think - not underarms. My underarms were a nightmare. I found that it irritated my underarms right away, making it itchy and causing a burn, I washed it off immediately, however I spent a good 3 days, scratching my armpits and using soothing creams to ease the rashes! Not good!
Tips: The first time you use it, I find that you need to leave it on for the longest amount possible - even if you exceed the recommended time - Nothing happens to the skin as far as I'm concerned. The skin just needs to get used to the chemicals to remove the hair. Every other time you use this after your initial time, a much shorter time will remove all the hair.
I also highly don't recommend putting in your armpits. It will hurt, and burn., and give you nice red rashes, that are nice and red, and really difficult to deal with.
Packaging - Handy tube that is squeezable so you can get the most out of it.
Smell - A strong chemical smell which isn't very nice.
Application - It was easy to apply. I found using my hands to be the best. You need quite a lot to cover your legs (I used half the bottle for my 1/2 legs). You need to leave it on for 10 mins (not 5, doesnt do it!)
I tried using the spatula to remove the cream but I could immediately see my skin was going red. So i switched to a wet cloth and found that was the best way for me.
My skin was left silky and smooth. I did note there were quite a few strays which the product didn't remove so had to use a shaver afterwards anyway. I didn't notice any lumps and bumps afterwards either.
In terms of longevity, I started getting growth again within 2 days. However, the regrowth wasn't as harsh as shaving stubble, so I could get away with it for a few more days.
Tips: Would be a great product if you don't have fast hair growth.
This stuff has been around for a long time right? My Nan and I had a chat about it, she said she use to always use it back in her day. I don't usually get to lock my self in the bathroom for a set amount of time because of my little one, and this is a product you really need to keep away from little ones. So, when I found the time for a private shower without interruptions I gave it ago. It worked, it didnt sting either. So yes, it does what it says. It past the test! I did have a couple stray heres left I had to get with a shaver but it def saved shaving cuts from rushing to shave in a short time.
Tips: It's very straight forward and easy to follow directions
Sick of having to shave every day? Give Veet Hair Removal for Sensitive Skin a try!
This cream is thick yet light. Very easy to apply. Use the tool supplied to get a good layer and to stop you from using too much.
Has a very strong smell to it which isn't very pleasant but the good thing is that is comes off in the shower :)
I found that I had to use quite a bit to get a good coverage so this bottle would last me about 4 or 5 uses.
This product would actually be a good buy and I'm going to buy more. Very good price and worth the value.
The packaging is nice and simple and not overdone. Very pleasant on the eyes.
I have very sensitive skin and it's good to fine something that doesn't irritate my skin.
This product does exactly what it claims to do. The results are awesome and I'm going to tell all my friends and family about this product because it's going to make my life a whole lot easier :)
Tips: Leave the cream on for a full 10 minutes.
This hair removal cream sort of worked but sort of didnt, it got off most of my leg hairs but there were still a few left behind that the cream couldn't get rid of. I left it on for about 5 minutes so I will be trying it again for about 8 minutes to see if that does the trick. Left my legs feeling very moisturized though which was great
Tips: Instead of 5 minutes keep it on for the longest time it says which I think was about 10 minutes to be sure all thos little stubborn hairs have been removed
Loved the fact it didn't stink! I can't use the regular hair removal cream because of skin irritation, but fantastically this stuff worked unexpectedly well! Had to use it twice to get desired result, but to be fair, I haven't shaved in aaages! Very happy with how well and EASILY it works
Tips: I found using it after a shower works best. I tried both ways but preferred after shower.
first off, i went through a whole tube of the cream for knees down. Which for $16, i would expect a couple of applications. it was easy to apply and was firm, so it was great to be able to carry on with my day until time to wash off. i wouldnt recommend using just before going out etc as it did leave red scratch marks from scraping the cream off. half an hour later the marks are gone and my legs are smooth so it is pretty good. Although im a waxing kinda girl, ill see how long my legs stay smooth. update- the next day i had prickles!!
It was so smooth and easy to apply. My skin felt like heaven afterwards and i disnt end up with little bumps on my legs like after shaving. It made my legs feel silky smooth and my partner even complimented me when i had my legs on him while watching tv. No skin reactions and a perfect finish. Eould totally use it again
