RULE NUMBER ONE - DO NOT SHAVE DOWN THERE, NEVER EVER BIC IT!! (Actually this is the only rule)
Okay girls (and boys if you like) im sure we all remember our first time with dads razor, all your friends had hair free legs and bikini lines.
Not something I enjoy doing to be honest, but faced with the prospect of looking like a gorilla in the Amazon rain forest I have tried many different creams, sugaring, waxes, shaving creams and lord knows anything else which has been advertised.
Waxing is far too effing painful in the bikini line area for my liking, although when the holiday season arrives im straight off to the beauty salon, to be defuzzed because there is no way im walking round with sprouting hair hanging out of my bikini bottoms, I do have some pride.
The one good thing about waxing is that it does last 3-4 weeks down there so you don’t have to go back as often. However, if you do decide to go and be waxed (and I don’t recommend it) make sure you have plenty of Savlon in to numb the pain.
Sugaring is very messy and I end up looking like ive eaten a toffee apple in the baking hot sun. To be honest i didn’t like it so i quickly gave up on that idea and then there is shaving, now girls im sorry but shaving is not an option for me down there, i have only ever done it once and i will never ever attempt it again. It was painful, it itched and it was down right sore for days, it looked like I had some kind of disease with the shaving rash I got, even waxing was more appealing after that saga.
Then i discovered quite be accident after a free sample winged its ways to me through royal mail? Nair bikini hair removing cream. Now I have seen it advertised on the television and I have also seen it in Boots, but why buy some when I could have a free sample (I sound as tight as Brian with his customer complaints)
Having not yet tried this method i thought i might as well give it ago. So having read the information on the back of the sachet it said to do a test patch to make sure you have no allergic reaction, sounds quite funny to test cream in the nether region, but once again having weird skin i took the safe option and tested it out.
Im one of those people who has extremely sensitive skin and most things, which are not hypoallergenic, make me itch and scratch and like my dad says to me “itch where it itches not where it looks best”
All very well and good dad, great theory if you’re a bloke and it times to rearrange your nether regions, but for a girl to start itching down there, people might think you have a little infestation so i always have to read the label before i even think about buying any kind of product, everything from make-up to wash powder.
(",)So what ingredients are in Nair (",)
Having just read the back of a sachet it contains - Paraffinum Liquidum, Cetearyl Alcohol, Calcium Thioglycolate, Calcium Hydroxide, Ceteth-20, Sodium Hydroxide, Tocopheryl Acetate, Aloe Barbadensis, Parfum, Chamomilla Recutita.... if you need anymore information then im afraid you will have to go and look them up for yourselves....
(",) How to use it (",)
My instructions are what I do when I use the cream, what the packet tells you to do, may differ slightly.
1. Smooth on Nair with fingertips or a spatula if you have one from another cream or lotion and then totally cover the area of that unwanted hair with a generous amount making sure it is as even a layer as possible. Whatever you do, do not rub it in. (Like a biology lesson is this!)
2. After 7-8 (on the packet it says 5/6) minutes test a small area. If the hair does not wipe off easily leave a while longer. Nair advise you not to leave it longer than 15 minutes.
3. Rinse off the remainder of the cream with lukewarm water, not hot water, using a wet cloth and then pat the area dry with a soft towel.
(",)So how did I get on with it?(",)
I think Nair works great although doesn't smell too good, its got that traditional hair removing cream smell and does take a little longer than it says on the packet to remove the hair, they say 7 minutes I say 8-10 to get rid of the lot and not have to re-apply the cream, but all hair is different, nevertheless it removed the hair extremely well and left my skin smooth with no dryness, and the result was 3/4 days before anything started to re-appear.
The other good thing about this sachet is that it comes with a finishing cream, which is totally moisturising and refreshing; it also pongs a bit (like your average hair removing cream) so I don’t bother to use it and stick to my regular lotion - Palmers Cocoa Butter.
***Health Warning alert***
Nair statement “As with all creams and lotions and potions we use regularly. Do not use on irritated, inflamed or broken skin. Avoid contact with eyes. In the event of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
Hair removers can be used anywhere except around eyes, in nose, ears or on breast nipples, perianal or vaginal/genital areas.
Avoid contact with other materials as this could lead to damage or discolouration. Keep out of reach of children. Contains Thioglycolate” So for your own benefits when trying these creams out, READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS!

Advantages: removes most unwanted hair Disadvantages: messy, need hair to be quite long to be effective
...That's when I came across Nair Bikini Bare. I looked at other brands aswell but Nair was the cheapest and I was on a bit of a holiday budget!
There were two sachets, one of hair remover and one moisturiser and it cost me 99p from Bodycare. As far as I'm aware, you can also get it in Superdrug, Boots, most supermarkets and some chemists but Bodycare was the cheapest.
I went into the bathroom ready to go. Took a book in with me I was gonna be sat ... ...easily. Then came the moment of truth, I opened the sachet of hair remove and began to slop it on. (Slop it on is the best way of describing it! It was very messy) It was very awkward to use as you had to sit with legs akimbo, and keep as still as possible, if you moved, the cream ended up moving as well and you can very easily take off more hair than you want too as happened in my case. The cream is supposedly lightly scented and is meant to smell ...

Advantages: It works! Disadvantages: Stings like Hell.
...I bought a sachet of Nair Bikini Bare from Superdrug for about £1.60. This comes in two sections, a sachet of hair removal cream and a sachet of finishing/moisturising cream. The whole lot is enough for one application as a trial or travel pack - it is available in larger packs too. It smells like putrid, sweaty armpits but more chemically, and is a thick white goo. You apply it to the intended area with your fingertips and wait 8-12 minutes for ... ...hair and should leave your skin smooth and hair free. I found the sachet contained a generous amoutn so put the remainder on my legs for good measure. It is then removed with a damp cloth or by showering it off and then you apply the finishing cream to the dried area. It works, but oh boy, the stinging afterwards! The finishing cream helped sooth my poor battered bikini line but the sting was still there for sometime afterwards so beware if you're ...
