General Comments

I used Veet In-Shower Hair Removal Cream for the first time the other day; not only on my legs, but as it says it is designed, also on my bikini line. So at first I was quite impressed by the results on my legs, after leaving the cream for the maximum recommended time of six minutes. As I washed the cream away my legs were, yes, perfectly smooth and felt moisturised, and to be honest much better then after shaving, with less of the hassle. However, as I washed it off my bikini line, I was brought up with a bleeding, itchy rash. Granted, it warns not to use on broken skin, but my skin was not broken. This was a completely unexpected reaction, and yes, to all who may comment, I did in fact do a spot test on my legs to test how my skin reacted, and it was all clear. So I was left with a red raw pain on my bikini line: obviously not very convenient. And moisturising this did not help either; in fact, it made it worse, and two days later it still is only just dying down. Not impressed.

Worst of all, when I got out of the shower, I found a painful spot on my knee. Upon further inspection I realised that the cream had removed a layer of skin from my knee.

I may have silky legs in places, but to be perfectly honest, I don't think it's worth it for the cuts, sores and rashes that I have developed.

    I disagree with this review because, it says on the package not to keep it on for the maximum time, especially on a sensitive area such as the bikini area, the actual instructions say to keep it on for a total of 3 minutes, which you doubled, so if your skin is even the slightest bit sensitive of course it was going to hurt your skin, its a product that dissolves hair!!!
