Veet Suprem' Essence In Shower Hair Removal Cream Review

I hate shaving every couple of days so picked this up thinking it could eliminate the need of the dreaded task of shaving. Unfortunately, it has not proved itself to be a satisfactory replacement to shaving for me.

First of all, this is presented nicely and functionally packaged in an easy to use squeeze tube. I apply a thin layer of this before my shower and wait over 3 mins before getting into the shower so none of the product washes off and I can hopefully get the best results possible (It is however as it states water resistant and stays on fine if you chose to jump in the shower and wait the specified time). The first thing I noticed about this and really disliked was the intense chemical smell. It smells similar to hair dye which can't be all that good for you and not something I would want to be trapped in the shower with (we have a shower dome!). It smells exactly the same as any other hair removal creme I have tried in the past, however, I must admit I was disappointed by this as it is marketed as full of essential oils and to have a velvet rose fragrance which I could not detect during or after using the product.

After about 6 minutes (which is the maximum time you should apparently leave the product on for) I wash the creme off...(which takes considerable effort I might add) and are left with 'smooth-ish' legs. For the effort involved and cost of this product I am pretty disappointed that it doesn't give you totally hairless legs which are equally as smooth to a close shave from a razor. I also only got about three whole leg applications from a tube of this which in comparison to other hair removal methods is probably about as expensive as it gets considering the results only last as long as shaving. I also felt like as thoroughly as I washed my legs I still had residue of the product on my legs (this could have been the essential oils though) and could still smell the scent of the product on my skin even after showering. The one benefit from using this is that I didn't get any irritation in terms of razor burn or nicks etc only a tiny bit of itchiness immediately after washing it off (I have super sensitive skin though).

Overall, I won't be repurchasing this and wouldn't recommend this product to anyone else as the results are not amazing and it is certainly not value for money.

I thought I would try this hair removing cream out for a change instead of shaving. The packaging is nice and the product comes in an upside down squeezable tube. It also comes with a exfoliating sponge to help wash the hair removal cream off. The product itself was easy to apply but very sticky and messy. It also had a really disgusting smell to it, which smelt like eggs or something. I found this product did not work very well to remove the hairs as there were still heaps after I had washed the product off. Overall I am very disappointed with this product and will not be repurchasing.

The one great thing about this product is in theory it seems easy enough to use, however I was very disappointed in this product.

It came in very easy to use packaging to beginning with, but when your hands ended up being covered in cream it was quite hard to squeeze out more. Its also quite hard to get a nice even coat all over the legs.

The smell is something else and just smells like hair being burnt from chemicals! Which essentially is what your doing, no amount of fragrance could mask that putrid smell. It also is quite the hassle to stand around and wait for the time to come to wipe it off.

The sponge provide aides somewhat in getting the cream off but quickly becomes coated so your constantly washing it off. I would say it takes about 70% of the hairs off. Overall this product isn't worth the hype and I would never put something that smelt this strong of chemicals near my skin again. I would not repurchase.

Sometimes I get lazy with shaving my legs and let them grow wild! I grabbed this cause I thought it would be easy to apply and then I could just jump in the shower and be hair free.....not the case unfortunately.

First off it stinks! I absolutely despise the smell. Second it is so fiddly to apply, the sponge is useless and gets covered in cream and it is just so messy. Thirdly as soon as I applied I could feel it starting to burn.....ugh not a fun time.

I managed to leave it for a few minutes then I just had to get it off. Hardly any hair come off and my legs were left a lovely shade of red and I still looked like a wookie.

So sorry to say I would not recommend this at all. I don't know why I thought this was a brilliant idea in the first place. My suggestion is just stick to a razor.

I picked up a couple these ones here. There’s other brands that do this type of hair removal.

Packaging is on point. I do like the sponge applicator . Make sure you have a spatula bowl and please do a skin test first . Consistency is creamy.

Overall I recon it was really bad on fine hairs it works but not thick coarse black hair .

I was so excited about trying this product. It has so much potential! But I didn't like it at all. The cream itself was very hard to apply especially when your hands are coated in it and it seamed to go EVERYWHERE. The sponge was hopeless and got clogged up before you had removed the cream from 1/4 of the leg and once the cream was removed I don't think it removed as muh hair as I would have hoped for. I still had to shave with a razor afterwards.

The smell of this stuff is potent and reminds me a bit of a mixture of perm solution and bleach. And it feels like it's going to burn off your nostril hairs while you breath it in

Over all this isn't worth your time or money

I didn't like this at all, it didn't get all the hairs off so I ended up having to shave the patches it missed which was a bit of a hassle. After applying quite a bit to my legs and leaving it on for the required amount of time, I found it quite hard to take it off with the sponge, so I ended up using an exfoliating glove to remove it all, I found it worked better. It left my legs feeling soft, apart from on the patches it missed. I won't be purchasing again, it just didn't work for me. The smell was a strong chemical smell which I really didn't like, I'd rather soap and a razor.

I was very disappointed with this product at $18.I found it didn't work as well as other products and I had to use twice each time so very time consuming. Easy to apply which was good and easy pop off lid which I liked . The smell was the usual hair removal smell which I didn't like but I don't think that matters as once washed away no longer applies.

I have eczema on my legs and when i used this product it felt like it burned my skin, i was red n itchy for a long time afterwards.
