NAIR Prep & Smooth Face Exfoliating Depilatory Cream for Women - Effective Hair Removal for Smooth Skin with Hyaluronic Acid, 1.76 oz

I followed the directions, and I used this from my cheekbones to just under my chin back to my hairline. Put it on my upper lip and just inside my lower nostrils. I let it sit for 5 minutes. After I wiped and washed it off, I felt a prickly, slightly burning sensation, with slight redness. There were a few strays I plucked away, mostly toward the corners of my mouth, but it did a better job than my epilator which I usually use on my upper lip. I will definitely be using this again. A calming type lotion, something you might use for after a sunburn, helped with the slight irritation and redness. It did not last long, and the next day it was fine. My serums, cremes and makeup go on so nicely now. Will be using this product from now on. I have fairly sensitive skin, but this worked ok for me (see above).

I am 44yrs old and the peach fuzz along my jaw has become a tad thicker. I'm guessing it's a hormone thing as us ladies get older. Anyways, I purchased this and it arrived the very next day. Because I know this is a chemical made to burn the hair from your body, I feel it's important to stress following instructions to the T. I washed my face because the instructions did state to make sure you are working with a fresh and clean bare face. I bought both Watermelon and Coconut but for the first round of use I gave the Watermelon Scented on a try. It smells good, but the scent does not last long at all. I only applied to my cheeks and jaw line because those are my fuzzy area on my face. I left it on there for only the 5 mins it specified to leave it on. I used makeup pad to wipe excess off and the washed my face with cool water. Now, it absolutely does leave a burning tingling sensation behind, so I discovered that applying afterburner aloe gel (mine was refrigerated and feel so soothing) it calmed that sensation quite quickly and my cheeks were pink for only about 30 mins after that and it cleared. I was very satisfied with end result, it removed all my peach fuzz and left a very silky smooth feel afterwards. I do recommend but again, please follow the instructions closely.

So the last time I attempted to use NAIR was as a teenager 20 years ago....I hated it. I used it on my legs and it smelled like poison to the point where I thought I would faint from the fumes and on top of that, it didn't do anything. Not a single leg hair was removed. And now today, I have been annoyed with how frequently I have to shave my face recently. I guess we get more peach fuzz as we age? Anyways, it was annoying me and I was tired of shaving but afraid of waxing and can't afford laser removal, so I decided to try NAIR again. This time, not only was the product much more potent, but it actually worked pretty well! I did leave it on a bit too long, I think because in my head I remembered NAIR not working in the past. Next time I use it, I will actually try removing a patch from my cheeks around the 3 or 4 minute mark. Five minutes was actually a bit too much. It stung pretty badly to wipe off. The skin/hair on my jaw is tougher than what's on my cheeks though, because that area could've probably used an extra minute or two. But anyways, for the first time using it, I'm pretty happy with the results. Some tiny peach fuzz hairs remain, but they are all very short, fine, and light in color and don't really bother me. It was the longer and/or thicker areas that did, mostly on my cheeks. Be ready with the vaseline or aloe gel after using this, though. Definitely don't apply any actives before or after. Just a super gentle cleanser, this, and then a thick ointment. I did this and while it burned a bit taking it off and for a little while after and my skin was a bit pink/red, I did it before bed and when I woke up my skin was fine again. I still didn't use any actives that day just to be safe, but I started using gentle actives again the next day and went back to my normal skincare routine the following day and did not experience any further irritation. I would say based on all of these comments that if it's your first time, you should only do a small area, and you might also want to test if the hair is removed after about 3 minutes instead of waiting the full 5. You can always apply a bit more if it's not coming off yet. Just try to use it for the least amount of time possible to be effective and then heavily hydrate your face afterwards. Hypochlorous acid spray (the active in Tower 28 SOS, but I use a generic) was also great for soothing/calming the redness down.

Still a messy process but less so has pleasant scent goes on smoothly and does the best facial hair removal only con is it does not come with any moisturizer and expensive recommended

Honestly, I had a horrible experience. I didn't had it on for the amount of time required when I felt the burning sensation. It didn't remove my hair, but it did left my skin red for like a week. It works fine in other parts of the body, but not the face. I do not recommend. Every experience is different, but mine was not the best.

It does remove the hair BUT if you have a few thicker courser darker hairs (the few Tahoe’s that are the reason for buying a whole hair removal product) it leaves the root. So yes, your face will be smooth and hydrated but the thick dark roots will be there as if you had simply shaved your face and the (in my case black hair) root that remains will be very visible. So yes it does remove the length, but no I wouldn’t buy it again because I’m not interested in worrying about the 5 oclock shadow. It was very well scented and didn’t burn my face at all. Easy to apply and remove.

I was worried after some reviews stated they had burns from this product. I used to buy a facial nair back in the early 2000's that worked so well on the upper lip. Wiped every bit of hair off in about 5 minutes without any type of pain or burns. I have been looking for it again, but could only find this one and another, which isn't the same as what I used to use. Thought I'd give this a try. There is a burning sensation, but it didn't even leave me red afterwards. And it's been a couple weeks since I used it, so no reaction after. It did a pretty good job at removing the hair on my upper lip, but I wish it was the same as the one I used to use. This one may not have gotten all the hair and didn't seem as smooth, but still worked well.

This worked for me. 5 minutes tops! It did leave my forehead (only part of my face that I have used it on so far) slightly red, and feeling a bit sensitive. Probably best to use when you’re at home for the day. The smell isn’t as bad as other Nair products, very mild and tolerable. I would purchase this again as it’s by far the best facial hair removal cream I have tried so far. Would recommend.
