I am literally bleeding and I'm freaking out. So I used the hair cream that's comes in a deodarant shaped stick and I rub it onto y legs wait 3 mins and then take it off with the water and washcloth it worked great. Until about 2 mins later it started to itch and burn and there were multiple bleeding dots on my legs and they were most certainly not there before!

I bought this cream to use on my cheeks, upper lip and chin like it says you can. I followed the directions like it says on the tub. After about 2/3 mins my face instantly started to burn and sting. I washed it off with cold water a number on times to try and get any left over cream that could be still on my face. Now im left with seriously painful red burns all over my face, in some parts its took my skin off. Im in that much agony i'm tempted to go to the hospital, however i look that horrendous im too embarressed to go. I'm only 16, i have school in 2 days, and my proms in 2 months. I've been using moituriser, vaseline, and germaline but nothing helping. Worst thing is, i cant cover it up with any makeup because of infection taking place. Im disgusted at the fact that it says nothing about it doing serious damage to the skin. In absolute agony!!

Used it once - fine. Second time - burns, rashes and welts. Both times were according to the guidance. 8 hours later I'm still looking a mess and I'm so angry. It's embarrassing enough as it is, I don't need a red raw 'tache' on top of that! Avoid this product!

I bought the Nair for my legs and after leaving it on for the 3mins. I took it off and my legs were burning and began breaking out in a rash. It's gonna take days before it heals and I am still burning.The only relief I got was using baby oil. I want ever use this product again it needs to be taken off the shelves. I just hope it don't scar.

I have a thing about my sideburns and would do probably anything to get rid of them so when I seen this product I thought "what harm can it do?". First time I used it, it worked pretty well, most of it came off although had to scrub a fair bit but I only came out in a bit of redness. So a few weeks later I thought it was time to do it again seeing as they had grew back. Except this time when I put it on it didn't really work so I removed the cream and applied again. I felt a burning sensation where the cream was and it felt like my skin was on fire so I quickly went the bathroom and took it off only to find my skin all red and that it had caused me to bleed in 3 places. This product is awful and wish I had read the reviews as many people have clearly experienced the same so I'm curious how this product is still on the market??

NAIR - HAIR REMOVER CREAM MUST BE BANNED WORLD WIDE!!! I used NAIR facial cream and followed instructions , did the patch test- no problems. So i applied to my chin , upper lip and lower lip. After 6 mins - from the base of my nose down to my chin and half way down mt neck suddenly felt like fire. I washed it off immediately. My face is left burning like a boiling inferno , red raw with weeping wounds and my lips shriveled up instantly - leaving them dry cracked and so sore. Can't open mouth to eat as skin so dried out. I AM IN AGGONY This is a chemical burn i have been told!!!!! Its miles to DANGEROUS GET A PETITION SET UP. NAIR NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM SALE ASAP. THIS PRODUCT IS A MAJOR HEALTH RISK USING NAIR. IS LIKELY TO LEAVE.YOUR FACE SCARRED FOR LIFE. THINK ABOUT IT !!!

I used this product a few weeks ago, following the instructions carefully. I was left wit red blotches but as it was put on before bed I just left it and my skin had recovered by morning. have just used it again, carefully following instructions and the conservative end of the timing and my face has come out it a horrendous looking red reaction that burns. I have rinsed thoroughly with cold water, taken anti-histimines etc but with no luck...this is a burn, not an allergic reaction. I have now looked at reviews on the internet and wish I had before using it...clearly lots of others have had similar experiences. I will never use it again, this product should be taken off the market.

I have been using hair removal cream for the past 15 years and have never had a problem until now. I usually use Boots own which is great but due to a problem with a batch in the warehouse I had to exchange it. Unfortunately the only alternative was the Nair brush on facial hair removal cream. Like so many others I wish I had had time to look it up first. As soon as I put it on my chin it started to burn so after a couple of minutes I washed it off. I am now left with a red roar patch of skin and couldn't eat anything today because it hurt too much when the skin stretched opening my mouth. With so many bad reviews it is criminal that this product has not been recalled, especially given that i imagine most of us who use these creams are self conscious about how we look in the first place and now we have to walk around with chemical burns as well!

I wish I had reviewed this product before buying!! I used this to get rid of some facial hair to my lip and chin and applied as indicated on the box. Left for 5 minutes as directed and after what was literally a minute my face came up in a huge red rash. The whole bottom half of my face burned and itched for a few hours despite washing the hair removal cream off but the rash has lasted for the best part of a day and is still showing no signs of disappearing. Please do not use this product. You have been warned.

This cream burns the skin leaving a permanent dark blemish at the upper lip area or wherever applied! You are warned!

I BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT FOR SENSITIVE SKIN!& ALSO DONE A KIN TEST 24 HOURS BEFORE HAND, I APPLIED IT AS IT STATED ON THE TUB AND WITHIN A SECOND OF APPLYING THIS ON MY CHIN, I WAS BURNT SEVERELY, IT CAME UP IN A HUGE RED SORE AND WAS WEEPING, THIS YELLOW STUFF AND BLOOD. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DOCTOR AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE UNFORTUNATELY. I HAVE TO WALK AROUND WITH A SCABBY CHIN UNTIL IT HEALS AND AM VERY WORRIED THAT IT IS GOING TO LEAVE A SCARE, THE PRODUCT SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE SHELF, I WOULDN'T LIKE TO WHAT CHEMICALS THEY USE. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT IT IS DANGEROUS.

Ugh! I got this product to get rid of some (fine, but dark) hairs on my upper lip, after using it, I now have horribly dark and hard stubble in the corners of my mouth! I'll stick to bleaching, thanks!

I have just used nair on my face & I would not wish this on anyone!I used it on chin & on my upper lip.As soon as I put it on my upper lip it started to tingle & felt like it was burning so after about a minute or so I washed it off to find that my upper lip was red raw & weeping.Although I had washed it off my skin was still burning & stinging so kept putting cold water on it.I didn't know what to do or put on it so I googled Nair hair removal & wish I had done so before using it as it seems like this has happened to loads of people!!!So at the moment I have put sudocrem on the burn & it's still stinging although not as bad & I am so nervous about how my face is going to look tomorrow & whether there will be any permanent marks or scars! I really hope that people read these reviews before using/buying this product as it may do so much damage to your face its just not worth the risk!!!

I used Nair Hair Removal on my face and the product brought me out in blotchy skin with lots of little red spots. I would NOT recommend this to ANYONE at all. I am now walking around with sore, dry skin. Absolutely terrible.

This product has made my skin sore and red. I am right now sitting with burning, red face. This product should be removed from the market. I am putting official complaint about this product. First time ever this has happened to me. I won't even rate 1 star! I am just praying it won't do any permanent damage!!

O.M.G is all i can say... i thought i would give my face a little tidy up and brought this Nair supposed to be sensitive cream.. it was frocious, from the moment i put it on i had a burning sentation and it made my face very red and spotty and blotchy and we are now talking still 2 weeks on. This product should be banned and the people who make it should be taken to court and sued...

To begin, I'd firstly like to point out that I've had some trouble using razors in the past, as they literally would not remove the hair from my legs!(upper leg, especially,) and i was beginning to lose hope that i would never have SILKY SMOOTH legs that all my friends were achieving with ease using a simple razor on their legs. Then, one day, i spotted this cream for €1.50 in the 2 Euro Shop. I had decided to purchase it, because, with that brilliant price, i really had nothing to lose! I had read reviews online when i got home that day. There was a massive difference in the range of results that women from all around the world had gotten. Some had horrid rashes and bumps; others got silky smooth legs just like the outer-packaging advertised. I then did a 24 hour test on my leg, in case of a reaction, and the next day, to my surprise, my leg had remained the same, with one hair-free, silky patch in the middle of my right leg (the patch i had tested)I was absolutely over joyed with the results, and the product really CHANGED MY LIFE. :) Any woman who has had trouble with different hair-removal techniques, should try this product! The hair also stayed away for up to twice as long as my stupid razors ever did! You have nothing to lose with this BRILLIANT PRODUCT!
