Veet Hair Removal Cream for Sensitive Skin Review

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.

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!

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!!

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.

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

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.

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!

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.

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.
