Works for me! Do a test run first to check for sensitivity

published

I’ve been using this product for well over 15 years and don’t have an issue with it. I only use it on the upper lip. Doesn’t work on my chin as it’s too coarse I think. Tip: try various ways of wiping the cream off. Some work and others don’t. Best to use after a shower and I use a cellulose sponge or several cotton pads soaked in warm/hot water to wipe it off. It also lasts forever so it’s great value for money.

Don’t put yourself through this

published

Okay so usually I would argue beauty is pain but as I am writing this with my face in a bowl of ice water I’m sure you could understand why did ya not on this occasion. After leaving this on for the suggested 3 minutes I felt tingling and instantly washed off the horrible smelling cream. My face has dark scab like dots it my pores which are currently burning as well as the red patches all over my face. Did I mention this product is for sensitive skin? Oh gosh... How tf did this pass Australian health standards?

This products without a doubt has ruined my face, burnt off parts when I put on the cream for the appropriate time, I am so disappointed in this product I wish I saw the reviews.. because I went through hell with this disgusting product.. does not deserve to be on the shelf at all.

Made my skin bright red

published

I put it on for 3 mins above my eyebrows to shape them. It started stinging from the start but I thought this was normal ( I bought sensitive) over 24 hours later my skin is red, blotchy, patchy and feels rough and dry. It did little to remove the hairs too. It has ‘tones’ the brow however plucking is so much easier and is more cost effective

Wish I had read the reviews- burnt my skin off

published

I bought this product on a whim as it was on sale- and now I know why! It literally burnt all the skin off my chin, and didnt remove the hair. I left it on for 3mins (minimum time) but then the stinging became too intense and I decided to rinse it off. Initially the skin was just red, but within 15minutes it had peeled leaving red, raw, bleeding areas. I have been dressing it with solosite wound gel, but at still concerned that it will scar.
I did a patch test prior to use on my arm and did not have this problem, so perhaps the product would be better suited to body use only.

this is a bunch of crap!! I want to sue !!

published

I am going to head office with this !! I used for the first time nair sensitive skin for face with almond oil for moisturiser. I have it on my side burns, cheeks, lip area and eyebrows. I had it on for 3 minutes. My eye brow immediately started going red and so sore. parts of my face tingled up ! This product said I could leave it on my face for 7 minutes max !! If I had of waited that long my face would have burnt away !! Im furious. I have an engagement party to attend this weekend and my eye looks horrendous!!

Nair face and body hair remover crap me up!!

published

Dangerous on face even if stated otherwise

I will literally ban this product if in power!!!! I left nair sensitive face hair removal cream on my side burn hair, upper and lower lip for only 3 minutes as directed.

I felt nothing while cream was on skin, but As I was washing my face it was as if someone poured acid on my face, skin tingling and burning sensation, skin feels extremely sensitive and still in severe pain.

It was made for sensitive skin and effed me up!!! Using 1% cortisol cream from pharmacy it helps with pain, if you accidentally buy this crap, I’ve pack on face, don’t apply any lotion with perfume alcohol etc !! Then apply cortisol cream immediately, skin irritation 45/55% gone. Crap nair!!!!

Burning Face!

published

Used completely as directed on my face this morning. Right after I washed it off my face started burning and hasn't stopped 9 hrs later. Made sure ALL the product was completely washed off, even filled the sink with cold water and immersed my face, to wash it thoroughly AND to try to relieve the stinging! Have used fresh aloe vera with no effect, cool washers, ice packs...tried SOOV on a small area but that just stung like all hell so I washed it off immediately. Hope this doesn't end up blistering...not sure what else to do. Will never use again.

Thought it was good

I used this cream for my upper lip at it was fine. However when I applied it to my cheeks it feels burnt and hot. I'm not sure why it did that but dont use on cheeks. My cheeks are beginning to break out.

Ugh. This is a terrible product. I used it as directed - and within a couple of minutes it had burnt the skin on my face. Still healing 2 weeks later. Not recommended AT ALL.

Left my face burnt, I have been using this product for years its never done that, so sore and disappointed will not be using this product again, please beware This product is dangerous

Never Again

published

Never again, followed the instructions left for 5min and have the worst pimples and rash every. Face is so red and itchy and getting worst each day.. it's been 2 weeks and still no improvement. So not happy and would stay clear of this product. Even if you did a test on your face the pimples and rash took 24hrs before the rash and pimples surfaced.

I was wary but this is so good

published

I originally was skeptical of this cream because it's so cheap in price. However, I've been using it for upper lip and it's so good. I read reviews before buying it so I did a patch test first after hearing people complain about how it irritated their skin and how it smelt bad, but I did not experience anything of the sort. This left my skin feeling even smoother than before. I would definitely recommend this. You might want to do a patch test first though, just in case

My skin was left burnt, dry and in a terrible stage

published

This was my first time trying out this product, the results were TERRIBLE. I thought it was alright at first but after a few hours my skin started burning really badly and I had no ideas what to do, I was truly terrified. Now I am left with a patch of dry, damaged skin and I am constantly being asked: "what happened to your skin?".

Burn

published

It definitely got rid of the hair, but it also burnt my face really badly. Only left on for about 3 minutes. Nearly 48hrs later, and my face is still red, itchy, weepy and dry - feels like I've been badly sunburnt!! Will not use ever again - what a waste.

It destroyed my skin!

published

I don’t even know what to say. I feel so terrible. My skin is burnt and I only left it in for 4-5 mins. I’m in so much pain. I’ve been applying aloevera gel to calm it down but it’s just so bad. I don’t even know how I’m going to go out!

Obviously some people have more sensitive skin and this product may not suit. I do know if u leave it on too long will be quite red for couple hours but cant say it burnt me.

You must have sensitive skin and maybe should have tested a less sensitive area of your body. I have used it for many many years, I am fair and have had no reaction except if I leave on too long skin goes red but that goes after awhile. I just put on some very plain moisturizer even sorbeline after using it. Cant offer any advice about going black sorry.
