Advantages: Hair free smooth skin

Disadvantages: Doesn't last that long

As someone who has always shaved my leg`s etc with a razor I'm always on the look out for something better, more long lasting with no pain.
Epilators - I have a mini one of these and it really hurts definitely couldn't take the pain of doing two whole legs.
Waxing - Well I'd rather get this done by a professional and to be honest I couldn't be botherd with that.
Hair Removal Creams - These always look like to much mess.

So anyway a few weeks ago I decided to take the plunge and try a hair removal Cream, That was the easy decision now which one to get, I Decided I would try the Nair brand as my first try into the world of Hair Removers.

Nair has a variety of choices

Nair Moisturising Hair Cream
Nair Sensitive Hair Cream
Nair Sensitive Facial Brush On
Nair Sensitive Gel Cream
Nair Sensitive Glide on
Nair Pretty Soft Rasberry Cream

How do they work

The Creams contain ingredients that work by breaking the chemical bonds that hold the hair together. The bonds give hair strength and structure, so when you break these bonds, the hair can easily be washed orwiped away and removed.
When the hair grows back it should feel softer as it hasn't been cut to a sharp edge.

I chose the Nair Sensitive Hair Cream for all hair types, On the tube it says you can use it on legs, body and face.

Their Claim for this product

Specially formulated for sensitive skin, this Nair Sensitive cream gently but effectively removes hair from legs, bikini areas, underarms and face. With Camellia Oil and Ylang-Ylang, it helps moisturise and exfoliate your skin while it removes hair, leaving it soft and smooth to the touch. No irritation, just gorgeous smooth skin.


I thought I would just try a small area the first time I used it so I went with my bikini line.
I let my hair get a weeks worth of growth as I really wanted to see how well the cream actually worked.
With the tube I bought I got a spatula which is handy as I didn't need to touch the cream at all, I squeezed it straight on to my skin then just spreaded it evenly on top of the hair I wanted to remove, easy as that really.
It said to leave it for 5-6 mins then remove a small bit with the spatula, one side of the spatula is smooth to put on with and the other is shaped to scrape with, you do this in the direction you would normally shave. I think I probably left it on longer than this and just tried to remove it all.
I have to say I was fairly impressed, it removed all the hair s that I actually covered, and my skin felt really soft too and it easily washes off in the shower,
I still think on me it grows back as quick but I don't notice it as much because the hair definitely feels a lot softer to touch instead of rough like with shaving, there was no goose bump effect and no itching when the hair started growing back.



A few days later I thought I would try it on my leg's, I left it on for 10 mins then I scraped it of with the spatula then got into the shower, When I got out I found my leg's to be very red and stinging, I won't use it on my legs again because it reacts on me but I will continue to use on my bikini line and underarms as it is ok on these parts.

Summary: Nice on bikini line and underarms not on legs
