Stacy160 201 Posted September 22, 2010 I picked up some of the powder yesterday (found it in the men's shaving section at Walmart) and tried it on the upper lip/jaw area and it worked wonderfully with no irritation. Last time I did that with Veet I wound up beet red with ugly splotches (on my annversary)... this stuff's great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mp8btpc 33 Posted October 1, 2010 No problem - I tried it tonight! I had to re-read the MSP thread I posted, and laughed all over again. I bought the cream formulation online as I couldn't be bothered mixing up my own. So I ended up leaving it about 9 minutes, no burning or irritation, and got 90% of the hair off.. funnily, the longer bits came off more easily than the stubble. Worked out amazingly smooth, I am SO impressed!! Going to try the underpits next. Legs I don't mind shaving but the pits get the bumps. I think I read that the powder form works better then the cream one, as you can make it into a thick paste. What I did was use an old mason jar and a plastic spoon along with an old plastic gift card for scraping:thumbup1:. I store them all under the counter in the bathroom. I used it on bikini line the other day, I hadn't used any since I had surgery 6 weeks ago and as usual it worked great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

emilygrace 5 Posted October 3, 2010 I did the underarms tonight, and OMG. I have *NEVER* had smoother underarms - I always had the dark shadow with shaving no matter how close I tried to get it. I wondered how the heck other girls had smooth pits... this is one way!! Totally feels like it's as smooth as a baby's bum! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cknorte 7 Posted October 25, 2010 OMG! I tried this last week, I went for the armpits to start off....and my armpits felt like they were on fire.....I had to rinse off and walk around with my arms raised for the rest of the day....glad I didn't go down under as a starting point...UGGG i guess I have more sensitive skin...(my skin has been a pain in the rear since surgery)....I wish the powder had not burned...I get waxed regularly, not only is it expensive...it is painful.....I am soooo bummed! Oh and it smells like Perm solution...my husband had the fans going and the windows open.....he's a bigger pain than me.... I guess I'll go to sally's and buy the wax mentioned above....will have him do it...see how that goes...LOL! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
