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!!

Reviews
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!
Tips: Use it on shorter hair, and make sure you leave it on for the right amount of time!
I'd test it out, and find out what area it works best on for you!
I got chosen to review this product. I wasn't sure what to think of the product at first, I wasn't even convinced it was gonna work, but to my surprise it did! it doesn't smell wonderful, but it doesn't reek either. the first application was messy, as expected. I left it for 5 minutes, and it didn't remove any hair, so I tried again for 7 and a half minutes and it was perfect! the hair came away with the spatula. I took my laptop into the bathroom and watched vlogs while I waited, so that killed time. I made sure the cream was all off my legs once i'd finished and my legs felt smooth. I was worried about getting itchy, red legs which is quite normal for me after shaving but it didn't happen which makes me very keen to use the product again! I didn't think the tube would last long but you don't end up using much, i'll be able to get 2 or 3 more uses out if it, at least. over all the product exceeded my expectations, and I would use it again, and recommend it to my friends. I'm not sure if I would buy this product myself, as I think its a bit expensive and shaving is much quicker.
Tips: I found it easier to put the cream on the back of the curved spatula and run it up your legs, its much cleaner and much cleaner!
I have used this product many times over the years. I have a love/hate relationship with it though.
I have used this on my legs, underarms and upper lip.
I hate the scent of all hair removal creams, they are just too strong for my liking and they can be a messy product to use sometimes also. The consistency is a typical cream, not too thick nor runny and easy to apply on your skin.
On my legs, this product seemed to only work in certain areas, I would have to reapply and wait again which was a hassle so I stopped using it on my legs. However, on my underarms and upper lip, it worked great and had a lasting affect. I generally would use it on my upper lip every fortnight and once a week on my underarm area.
I did not have any reactions to this product and it left my skin feeling soft and smooth.
I have repurchased this product for my daughter to use on her underarms and she is happy, I however, probably will not use it again as I prefer to wax or use my epilator now. Ladies with sensitive skin might find this product perfect for them though.
Veet Hair Removal Cream does exactly what it says it will; leave you with hair-free, soft skin. Using this cream you can say goodbye to razor irritation, and hello to soft, smooth skin! It is very effective at removing most of your hair and is a quick, pain-free process. This being said, I would not use it as my primary method of hair removal.
For what it costs, Very Hair Removal Cream does not last very long. Like with shaving, your hair starts growing back immediately so you have to repeat the process again in a few days. It also takes a large amount of product to achieve consistent, even hair removal. This means that the tube of cream does not last very long so in the long run it is much more expensive than just using a razor.
I would use this as a special occasion solution when I really want to avoid any visible razor irritation. In the mean time, a razor is just as effective and less expensive.
Overall I liked this product! It was quick, painless and didn't smell like nasty chemicals. I have used a few different hair removal creams and this one was very good for my sensitive skin! In the past I have felt stinging sensations when using these sorts of products and my skin remained red for a while afterwards. This product however didn't do this! It was completely pain free and I didn't react to it like I have with others.
It removed the majority of hair on my legs. However, it did miss the coarser hair around my ankles. I found it quite hard to get an even spread of product with the spatula, thus I seemed to have quite a few patches that I missed. I also tried it on my armpits and it didn't really work all that well because the hair is a lot coarser and I didn't want to leave it on for too long! I also found that I had to use a lot of product for my legs so the 100ml didn't last very long.
My leg hair grew back in a day like it does with shaving so the results didn't last twice as long for me, however I think I will continue to experiment with hair removal creams as I've heard that overtime it slows hair growth!
Tips: It might be easier to use something else to apply the product with since it's hard to get an even spread with the spatula. The cream has to be quite a thick layer if it is to remove coarser hair and will need to be left on longer than with finer hair.
While the sensitive cream is less irritating to my skin than the normal hair removal cream it does still irritate my skin on occassion. I do not think its it good value for money as I only get 2-3 uses out of a tube of cream for my legs. I usually only Veet hair removal cream if I want smooth legs for 3-4 days instead of 2-3 days.
I use this product for my armpits and my face. Agreed the smell isn't the best but it's easy to use and the hair removal lasts longer than shaving. It also means less chance of missing a spot which I always did when I shaved my pits.
I like it... it takes a few minutes, easy to remove - I don't use the spatula - put it on, leave it as directed and then jump in the shower and take it off that way. Easy peasy :)
This cream was great. It was quick and easy to use, I applied it before my shower and left it to do it's thing while I removed my makeup. Way less hassle than shaving as I could get to those hard to reach places easier. Smelt great too. My skin is very sensitive and this way great to use compared to shaving. Left no redness or irritation and left my skin so smooth. Will use this again!!
Like the other reviews have pointed out, this has a horrible and very strong smell (think: rotten eggs or sulphur). The worst part about it is the smell lingers even after a shower. I was positive I could still smell it on myself even after washing it off with a strongly scented body wash.
With the product effectiveness itself, I have always found depilatory creams to be not that effective. They get rid of a large amount of hair, though no matter how long you leave it on, there are a few hairs that still need to be removed using some other method such as shaving. This was no different in that respect.
I did find this wasn't overly drying or irritating to my skin unlike other creams. For that reason alone, if I do end up buying depilatory cream again, I would consider this.
