I was really impressed with the NAIR commercials. It sounded great! No razor, no mess, silky smooth legs and you don't have to shave as often! How can you lose?
DIRECTIONS FOR USE.
Before each use do a test on a small part of the area where hair is to be removed to make sure your skin does not become irritated or your skin doesn't have a reaction to the ingredients. You want a thick smooth layer. Follow package directions and wait 24 hours. If your skin is normal proceed.
Pour the lotion in your hand and rub over the areas on your leg from which you you wish to remove hair. Now wait 4 minutes.
Test a small area by wiping gently with a damp washcloth. Do not rub. If the hair in that area comes off easily, you can go ahead and remove the rest of the lotion on your leg with the washcloth.
If the hair doesn't come off easily, wait a few more minutes and try again. You can shower the rest of the lotion off if you wish.
IMPORTANT!!!
Use a depilatory right after a warm (not hot) bath or shower when the hair is softened and pores are open.
Be generous when applying depilatory and don't rub it in. Just smooth on a thick layer.
While the depilatory works (only 4 minutes), give yourself a mask or read your favorite magazine.
Never use a depilatory on sunburned skin or where you have a cut or abrasion.
INGREDIENTS: hmmm...none listed.
So I go out and buy it, slop some of it on my legs, spread it and wait. After maybe 15-30 seconds, my legs feel like their on fire! I didn't wash it off right away, since I thought it was just a temporary thing. So, I'm running around the house trying to cool my legs off for the next 5 minutes. When time is up and I can finally wash this stuff off, I get into the shower and notice that not all the hair came off. A lot of it did come off, but there were always places where the hair must have been really stubborn, or I didn't put enough cream there. When I dry my legs, I start to notice all these little red bumps all over my legs, and it started to itch horribly! I started to notice that NAIR wasn't really all that great.
So for the rest of the night, I sit there, scratching my legs. I thought of the possibility that maybe I was allergic to something in the cream, but I have never been allergic to anything before, I guess it could still be a possibility.
