1. Veet 3 Minute Hair Removal Cream (R39.99 for 50ml)
Works while you shower, as they say. This product is light and creamy. They have variations for different skin types as well as scents, I like the Shea butter and lily.
You apply it, wait 3 minutes, then jump into the shower and watch all your unwanted hair go down the drain. Don't keep the cream on for longer than 6 minutes. It also comes with a spatula or sponge which you can wash and keep for next time which will hopefully be in 3 weeks.
2. AVON Fresh & Smooth Hair Removal Cream (R80)
This dermatologist-tested product is one-step alternative to waxing and depilatories. It's formulated especially for your face and will make hair softer and finer. It leaves your skin feeling moisturized. The product comes in a variety of scents as well.
3.Guinot Epil Confort, After Hair Removal Face Cream(R187)
This cream is part of a line of after hair removal skincare products which are used professionally. It will lighten and soften your hair while slowing down its regrowth by 59%.
It will moisturise your skin leaving it softer and smoother for longer and hair removal will be more comfortable and required less frequently. We all want that hair to grow back slower, don't we?
Other products in the range include a spray and gel.

| Small word of advise, if you have more "shapely, curvy" thighs that don't include that gap between them, DON'T walk around with Veet smeared on, you may end up with a "Hollywood" of your own making!! | ||

| Ooooh! I recently tried Mandy's hair remover, was meant for arms, legs and underarms but i used it for my lip! I know, I know! Stupid! Got a horrid rash - was red for about 2 days. I'm about to try the one for face. But it really does grow back VERY quickly... (like 4 days) why is that? I think i'll go back to Mandy's cream bleach! You really can't even see those blonde hairs! | ||

| Gadija, I agree with you! Veet definately does not last 3 weeks with me, 2 days later the stubble is already growing back. | ||

| In the long term waxing is definately best, less hair grow back if you wax regularly. My mom used to wax when she was younger, now there's nothing left. I'm referring to the hair on her legs... | ||

| I prefer waxing - legs, g-string, armpits. found that over the years the need has lessened, because growth had diminished. Consistent waxing is WORTH IT. | ||
