I am sick of shaving my legs, using wax and Immac, all of them annoy me because hair only grows back anyway. As a woman I find it increasingly annoying that no matter what product you can buy on the market today, it doesn't keep your legs, under arms and bikini line hair free. Having tried both waxing and sugaring both of which are said to be more painful than childbirth if you have Attila the Hun ripping your hairs out I decided to try something new and revolutionary which I had seen advertised on one of those dodgy QVC look-a-like programmes and sounds as terrible as those JML adverts which have revolutionised everything from Ironing board covers to microwaving your food.
Let me introduce you to '
Skin Doctors Hair No More' which claims amongst other things to "harmlessly and painlessly removes unwanted hair and can actually prevent it from growing back" and then claimed "This breakthrough in hair removal is currently the biggest selling hair removal product in Australia. A simple two-step system includes a gentle cream that removes even the most stubborn hair and a hair-inhibitor spray that starves the hair of nutrients from the root and can help hair from growing back". At this point I ordered it on the phone with my credit card quicker than you can say "prove it works".
About a week later when it arrived I was a little disappointed that it wasn't a huge package (story of my life) but a smallish box and inside was a box a little smaller, white in colour which a woman sat stroking her bare leg not looking terribly happy. Within the box the contents were as follows:
· 2 x 100g jars of gentle depilatory cream. · 1 x 120ml bottle of hair growth inhibitor spray. · Application spatula. · Product information and instructions.Already I wanted to go and try it out, so having read the instructions very carefully I decided that before trying it out on my nether regions I should probably start with one leg, at least that way I could cover any scars with tights or stockings.
Step ones invites you to cover the hairy area with the depilatory cream in the same way you would with Veet or Immac using the enclosed spatula. After 3-4 minutes the hair looks a little different like it would usually when using a cream of this sort and you simply wipe it away from your legs using a clean sponge or flannel and from here on in you should no longer see any leg hair but instead have lovely soft legs, if you have thicker and much coarser hair then you may need to wait a little while longer. So far so good in my case as it was clearly working and I was impressed. There was no burning sensation like I have experienced in the past leading nicely onto step two which involves the bottle of hair growth inhibitor.
The leaflet does say that this product is made from "naturally based compounds" which means that there should be no harmful chemicals in it. Spraying in onto my legs I was happy to read that it would inhibit new growth my preventing the nourishment of any new hair essentially removing everything the body needs to re-grow hair. Again, the entire process was totally painless.
After the tester on one leg I finished my other leg and once again felt no burning sensations. Both legs looked and felt soft and smooth. The one thing I did notice about the cream and spray was that it didn't smell of chemicals like other brands of hair removal cream that usually has that horrid bleach smell when claiming to be packed with cucumber. There was nothing at all that could be described as a fragrance and because of this I feel the need to cover my legs in moisturising cream.
'Skin DoctorsHair No More' it did fulfil its primary role and that is hair removal and it did hinder the hair when growing back over the coming weeks. When using these creams my leg hair would grow back within a week to two weeks at most and in some places on the leg be really itchy to the point where I would grab a razor and shave the hair off again. Since using this product the hair takes anything up to 6 weeks to grow back and some parts of my leg had no hair at all for up to 8 weeks.
Costing £16 I am extremely impressed with it and would recommend it wholeheartedly as I'm amazed it actually did work. In the past I have tried various lotions and potions to no avail but this beats the spots off everything else.
The cream and spray can be used on a male or female body, so if you have a gorilla for a husband who is scared stiff of wax strips, get him with this cream, he won't feel a thing I promise!
