Veet in shower Hair Removal Cream

I've grown up around my mum always using veet so it makes sense that ive used it a fair bit myself. This is great if you have had a bit of a surgery and your a bit sore to be bothering with shaving. Its easy to use and nice and gentle on the skin.. The only downside is, if you don't use this often and use this once or twice the smooth results wont last that long on you. I have found with this because i dont use it that often my legs start to feel prickly very fast whereas my legs with shaving stay smooth for quite awhile! I still think it is a great product though.

I love Veet! I have been using it for years now, as a fast and effective alternative to shaving. It is perfect for tricky areas like knees and elbows. Application is easy and fast, and explained clearly on the packaging. My skin always feels perfectly soft and smooth afterwards, and stays like that for days! Although the price is higher than other shaving alternatives, I find that Veet works really well and you definitely do get what you pay for. Would absolutely recommend

Hello everyone! Would definitly recommend this to everyone who is tired of shaving.lol. works really great with me on to go. Just rub on area that needs a deep cleaning. Wash will you shower then you are done for the day!whoo hoo...!!! It just made everything much easier for me. Espeacially after a long day from work no more bending and backache from shaving..wink*

Even though this product doesn't do what it says it does - work in the shower - it's something I always like to have on hand especially during the summer. Yes, it smells like chemicals, all hair removal creams do, but compared to most this one isn't so bad! No it doesn't work in-shower, it will wash off. And yes, it takes longer to work than expected, BUT I still think it's worth it. Here's why: I like to apply it carefully and evenly to my legs, even the front my bikini line, wherever, wait 5-10 minutes in the bathroom while I brush my teeth, pluck my brows, whatever, then jump in the shower and use the exfoliating side of the sponge to clean away the cream and help remove the hair. Doing it this way is fool proof and leaves me with smooth skin and the closest hair removal you'll get aside from waxing. It takes longer to grow back than if I'd shaved and I don't get any bumps or ingrown hairs on otherwise sensitive skin.

I was surprised to see so many unhappy consumer reviews about this product as I was pleasantly surprised by how effective it is. I say that though having modified usage from the instructions...

I apply this and wait closer to ten minutes than the suggested 5, and then use a facecloth to remove it. I threw the sponge out after one use as I felt it was hindering rather than helping with application and removal of the product.

It does have a chemical type scent but it's on the lighter side, and is quite creamy, leaving my skin feeling less 'attacked' than it can be post hairing.

I have very dark hair on pale skin and it' simemdiately evident if a product can't handle that, but this handles the removal of hair from bikini line etc really well.

The tube is great, but I'd prefer a flip cap to the screw on for ease of use while applying.

Because I'm a busy person who can't always make it to the salon for (as Marian Keyes once put it in a book) 'de-gorilla-ing', I will continue to be happy using the Veet In-shower hair removal system. It does need slight modifications, but is entirely usable and effective as is.

I am super lazy with shaving my legs and am really glad this product exists! It comes out as quiet a thick white cream that you spread on your legs. It is really important to apply it evenly as you may get uneven results. Your supposed to wet it in the shower without actually rinsing it off which is kinda hard but it does come off quiet easily in the shower. I have thin blond leg hair and this works quiet well for me. However if you had dark or thick leg hair this may not work as well as I found if I applied it after letting the hair grow out it didn't work as well.

I did find this moisturized my legs, normally the skin can go quiet dry but they didn't with this product.

I got this product free, I don't think I would have paid the RRP for it, as it seems a little expensive for the 2-3 uses you would get out of the tube vs the amount of uses you would get out of a razor for a similar price.

The product says to apply using the sponge, wait a minute, hop in the shower, then after three minutes wipe off using the exfoliator side of the sponge. I think if I had done this then the product would not have worked at all, because it is impossible to be in the shower and not let the water touch the cream, particularly if it is on your legs... as soon as the cream gets wet it rinsed straight off.

The cream itself is quite thick and fairly easy to apply using the sponge. The smell is quite strong and chemically, but this is what I would expect from something that is essentially burning your hairs off.

I applied this out of the shower, waited 3-5 minutes then got in and used the sponge over the areas of skin I had applied the cream. My under arms stung a lot and no hair really came out, maybe I would have needed to leave it longer as the hair is a little thicker, but my skin was already stinging so I wouldn't use again there. My bikini came off patchy so again I believe I would have to leave longer for it to work properly. My legs however felt so silky in the shower and once out of the shower and dried were actually very smooth and hair free.

I wouldn't use this as my permanent method of hair removal, but it is a nice occasional alternative to shaving my legs, especially during to the summer when constant shaving can dry out my skin and cause ingrown hairs.

I had tried the In-shower cream only to get covered with the stuff and burn my self a few times due to it taking so long to put on, a bit too messy to be practical and even with the floral scent added to it it still smells awful. It says "in shower" on the label but you actually need to put it on before you get in because once your skin is wet that stuff is slipping off pretty easily and if you havent had it on long enough before you get into the shower its not going to work and you've ended up wasting your time. When washing the cream off you need to scrub your skin at the same time to remove the hair so you may as well just shave as it will grow back at the same rate anyway, smell less and not burn your legs.

I applied it, waited a while before getting into shower, but it only soften the hair, and i still had to shave to remove all the hair. Wouldn’t use it again.

I got this in one of my beauty subscriptions and must admit when reading the hype, I got excited thinking finally a veet product that actually works. Well, feeling pretty disappointed with it to be honest. The smell is still quite horrible even though it has improved because of the oils it has in it. However I read instructions, did what it said and it still left hairs on the leg and didn't take the hair away entirely, instead leaving a bit of a stub. Not my thing.
