Just a heads up. I've purchased this at my local CVS because it was on sale. I just so happened to be curious and wanting to attempt to get rid of some facial hair, so of course I purchased it.
Everything seemed to be legit. Put it on, wipe it off. Easy.
I applied it on, thinking nothing of the minor burning following the application. I thought it would be fine! Of course it would be fine, the box says it's gentle. So let's continue on with it!!

I have been using this product for years with no irriation or burning, but then again my skin is dark so not sure how it would be on a lighter skin.

I am just sorry regular stores like CVS, Riteaid and Walgreens no longer carry it :-(

I was very effective at removing hair.. but a few days later I started having the most awful pimples (3 or 4) in that area and they got worse and worse. I am going back to waxing!
