weird
Reviewer: Courtney   2009-09-17

I usually use the bleach cream, but i dont know if they were out or stopped selling it?? Well i put this product on for the right amount of time and felt no burn. I took it off after 4 minutes... and i still had some remaining hairs left. I used it on my upper lip. It pretty much looks like i shaved my upper lip and there are a lot of hairs left, and some of the hairs are half of what they used to be so it looks even worse. This product didnt completely remove all of my hairs, so now i have to go and pluck them. I would not recomend this product.

This product is horrible
Reviewer: Georgia   2009-05-02

This product irritated my skin terribly, leaving red marks and resulted in very little hair removal. I could feel the pain all the way to my jaw bone (I had applied a test amount to my right chin) and now have a tooth that is sensitive to hot and cold which I am convinced is a result of this stuff. DON'T USE IT!!!!

No hair left behind

I've used other creams and this is by far the best. As long as you're careful and dont leave it on longer than instructed, you wont wind up with burns. If I start feeling any kind of pain or discomfort when using the product, I just remove it and most if not all the time, the hair is ready to come off anyways! I've experienced the burn a couple times but compared to the many many many other times that it worked just fine, it's so worth it. I love this product and have used it for about 7 years now and would be completely lost with out it!

surgi creme wax
