 LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! Jul 01, 2011
By SPIRIT
My sister actually recommended this product to me. I was hesitant at first because I was afraid it was going to burn like Nair. It does have an order but it's not as near messy as magic shave. I've used it everywhere!!! Arms, Legs, Underarms, Upper Lip and Bikini area!!
Ladies for your bikini area... I suggest you use some kind of petroleum based oil ... or just petroleum jelly around the hairline to protect your skin. I wouldn't recommend baby oil. Also, that spatula is just a waste of time and will actually cause you to get a chemical burn because you aren't removing the chemical fast enough.
It's safe enough that you can rinse yourself in the shower or bath with warm water. Just don't rub it in... or use soap to rinse it off. You can use a bath scrungy to remove the hair. Go against the grain. That means wipe upward toward your belly and away from your genitals. I wouldn't recommend you use this product after you've showered.
It tends to burn only if your pores are open or if you've previously scratched the area you're going to treat. While waxing does last longer... I tell you this definitely last longer than shaving. If you're prone to hair bumps and ingrown hairs.... Tea tree oil helps and the bumps usually disappears within a couple of days!! DO NOT USE THE TEA TREE OIL RIGHT AFTER APPLYING VEET!!! LOL no I've never done it... and I suggest you don't do it either!!! Unless you want to burn!

 Veet worth it? Not for me! Sep 05, 2009
By Amy Gurley
"=^.^="
Veet sounded very promising for me. I wanted to try and remove hair from my bikini area without shaving, since I seem to cut myself there repeatedly when I shave there. I thought Veet was the perfect solution. I've never tried Nair, but I hear it smells not nearly as bad as Nair does. Truth be told, there is a stench, but it's not anything one can't live with. The problem I have with Veet is that even though I bought the Sensitive Skin formula (and to my knowledge I don't even have sensitive skin) I break out in my bikini area. It's strange because I have used it on my legs and my armpits and do not break out there. I get these little red bumps all over my area (plus while the cream is on it itches, but doesn't itch on my armpits or legs) and this time, I saw spots of blood. I'm not sure if it's from the Veet directly, or maybe from scabs Veet left behind when I used it in that area about 2 weeks ago. (in which I broke out then too but subsquently used it on my legs and was fine so I tried it again just now). Also, it doesn't work nearly as good as shaving. I used Veet on one leg, and shaved the other. The bladeless razor is just as slow as shaving, PLUS you have to wait 5 or more minutes to let the cream work before you shave. AND it didn't remove all of the hair. And the cream sticks to the razor and u have to rub it off under water after every stroke. And after all that, the hair grows back at the same rate as the shaven leg, so no benefits there either. I give it two stars though, because if you let your hair get long (like under the armpit) before you use Veet (but who would!) it works very well getting it out. Of course, I don't use the bladeless razor anymore, just a washcloth and warm water. Seems to work much better on long hair than on stubble, but then what's the point, you know? I won't be buying Veet again - I can shave faster than Veet works so why bother with the mess? (and it is messy!)

 Good Product Jun 12, 2009
By leni1123
If you hate shaving, and dislike waxing, then this just might work for you. It does for me, although as someone who previously waxed keeping it up at regular intervals was something I had to get used to at first. Still, the benefits outweight the disadvantages for me--it's a painless procedure, but not quite as long lasting as waxing, because it really only chemically eats away at the hair follicles on the outside of the skin, and doesn't remove the whole hair follicle like waxing does.
Anyways, this is a pretty good product that I highly reccomend. I've heard reports of some people having bad experiences with it but mine has been positive thus far (which is actually 3--4 months). I suggest testing out an optimal length of time to leave the cream on however (anywhere from 3 to 6 minutes) in order to use the product to the best effect.

My Veet Results Feb 26, 2010
By Cristian Cerda
"ShinyRedR1"
This stuff works pretty well for me. I use it on my chest, stomach and lower back. I have to leave in on a little longer then recommended, but it does work for the most part.

Smooth! Jan 09, 2012
By Kw
"Kay Doubleyou"
Great Product! Makes hair removal easy. The scent is not over powering like other hair removal products. I use it for my armpits and bikini line. It works great on my sisters legs and the re-growth is a lot softer. The sensitive skin formula is great but if you have super sensitive skin, I suggest you base your skin by rubbing some Vaseline on the area and rinsing with warm water before applying. Do not leave on longer than needed. When ready to remove, the hair will look like wet cotton.Give it a try.
