Smoothness can last for a couple of days |
Smoothness can last up to a week |
Smoothness can last for multiple weeks |
Quicker process- takes less time |
Longer process- 3 minutes to allow the cream to work + the time it takes to remove |
Longer process- waiting for wax to heat up + removal or removing every hair with pre-waxed strips |
Mess-free process |
Application can be quite messy |
Liquid wax can be quite messy unless performed by a professional (this incurs a cost). Pre-waxed strips provide a clean application, but are not a reusable method |
How does Veet Hair Removal Cream for Men work?
Using the cream provides smooth results in as little as 4 minutes dissolves hair from the root rather than cutting it from the skin’s surface like shaving. It’s pain-free and eliminates the risk of cuts and nicks as it doesn’t require a blade to remove the hair. The formula utilises Silk and Fresh Technology™ which removes hair quickly and effectively, without causing irritation and prevents unpleasant odour.
What is Silk and Fresh Technology?
Traditional depilatory (hair removal) creams have a reputation for having an unpleasant odour and having to scrub away at the skin after use which can cause irritation. Having to open a window during use and irritated skin makes this technique a lot less appealing. Veet have developed a formula that uses Silk & Fresh Technology™ that ensures there is no lingering smell during or after the removal process and it contains moisturising properties to ensure skin is hydrated, keeping it soft as well as smooth.
How to use Veet In Shower Hair Removal Cream
You can achieve silky smooth skin with just 5 steps that take less than 10 minutes.
- Before you shower, apply the cream using the soft, coloured side of the sponge. Don’t rub it in and make sure the hair you want to remove is completely covered- wash any cream off your hands after application
- Wait at least 1 minute before stepping into the shower
- Continue with your normal shower routine, avoiding putting the cream directly in the stream of water, so that it stays on long enough to work. It is usual for some cream to gradually wash away at this stage
- When the cream has been on your skin for 3 minutes in total, use the white side of the sponge to remove a small test area of cream. If the hair comes away easily, remove the rest. If your hair is more stubborn you can leave the cream on for up to 3 more minutes but do not leave for more than 6 minutes. Use the soft, coloured part of the sponge to remove the cream
- Thoroughly rinse your skin with water to remove the cream completely and then dry. Rinse the sponge and ensure the tube is closed when the cream is not in use to ensure it stays effective
This product can be used on the chest, back, legs, arms, underarms and pubic area.
