This gave me an awful chemical burn on my chin. I followed the instructions, but it started to sting soon after application. I thought this was normal so I left it on, but ended up washing it off when the stinging got worse. I was left with a second-degree burn on my chin. My husband called the poison control center. They said to wash it with mild soap and water. Then follow with running my chin under cold water for as long as I could stand it. They recommended at least 20 mins. My skin reminded me of how ice looks after you sprinkle rock salt on it. I healed, after a couple weeks. I understand that this may not happen to everyone. Please think twice though, because I had used this in the past with no problems. And if it starts to sting, please wash it off right away. Don't wait like I did! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: Sally Hansen Hair Remover Creme For Face With Vitamin-E I've been using this for quite a number of months (I think a good 6 or more and I'm on the same tube). I only use it for my upper lip hair because 1. It says not to use on eyebrows 2. Wouldn't be able to style eyebrows with it anyway and 3. I don't have any other hairy areas on my face.
It's definitely cheaper than getting it done professionally when I get my brows done, and it is less painful. ********************************** In response to the reviews that say it doesn't work at all - it actually didn't work well for me either the first couple times until I figured out two things: 1. Keep the creme on for the max or close to the max amount of time (8 min max) (<- assuming you do not have very sensitive skin!) 2. Use a rag that is a little rough, and SCRUB the creme off. This causes a /little/ irritation, but it makes sure that none of the thicker hairs will hang on to your skin. ***********************************...Read more |
