Hair Removal

Archive for the ‘Hair Removal Lotion’ Category

I recently bought GiGi’s hair removal lotion from Sally’s Beauty supply because shaving is painful for me and most of the time I come out with razor burn and cuts all over my legs, no matter what cream, soap, or razor I use. I tried waxing but it didn’t get all the wax off and left something similar to razor burn and my legs were red and my pores looked huge. I have tried GiGi’s Hair Removal lotion on my arms and I love the way it feels, though it didn’t completely take the hair off. It changed the hair so I could pull it off and my arms feel silky soft but there is still hair on my arms. I tried it on my legs and it left them soft but not hairless. I looked at reviews and people have had success with this product. I follow the directions and dampen my skin, apply a generous amount of lotion and spread it as evenly as possible, leave it 10 minutes tops then rinse/wipe with warm washcloth. If anyone has used this successfully please let me know if there is a secret I’m not understanding or maybe if there is some kind of exfoliation brush I could use after the lotion? Thanks in advance!

Also, if anyone has had similar issues with hair removal and have discovered a solution, please share! I’m desperate!

I’ve used it in the past & have to leave on longer than the directions. Wait until the 10 minutes is up, then check ~ pull on the hair to see if it comes out. If it doesn’t come out easily, leave on for a couple more minutes. I also used an old wash cloth to get it all off. (Use an old wash cloth, even after washing it, it still stinks like chemicals.) Good luck!!

I’ve never used Veet before. I just got the Veet Rapid Action Hair Removal Lotion. Do I apply it to wet or dry skin?

Also, I’m going camping tomorrow and my legs (which I will have used Veet on) are going to be exposed. Should I keep them covered for 24 hours or will it be okay?

Thanks!
One of the other bottles I read said dry but this one didn’t say wet or dry… thanks!

Also, am I able to apply sunscreen within 24 hours afteri use it?

Dry and you’ll be fine, just moisturize.

I was in wal-mart today to buy veet. I saw some veet and Nair in the form of lotion I was just wondering if it was better than the foam or worse or bout the same.

I have the lotion veet and it is TERRIBLE it smells and it doesnt work. It just sits there and when you wipe it away, no hair comes off. I havent tried foam but DO NOT BUY THE LOTION!!!
