Summer time beauty needs

www.nair.com
Well, if you're in the South we're about a month deep into summer weather. Gonna get a little personal here and review a product to keep your bikini area smooth for swimsuit season! I decided to try out Nair moisturizing bikini cream. I am not a waxing girl, always just used a razor, but I figured for $5.29 at Rite Aid I would give the cream a shot.

Since I have not used this product before I tested on a small spot a day ahead of time. I didn't notice any reaction, so I went ahead with the rest (not ALLLL the rest, mind you, just areas I deemed necessary...) Anywho, I left it on for 4 minutes, and it did a pretty good job of removal! It doesn't smell bad at all. There was a little twinge of burning near the very last minute, but once I had completely showered off it was fine. I'd say the results are slightly better than shaving. Now. One thing I didn't consider was avoiding putting the cream back on the same spot I had tested...I have some slight redness today in the "double application" area, but other than that fine.

Other reviews I have read online say it doesn't last too long, which I had already suspected. But again, it works just as well if not better than shaving, it's cheap, and it's fast (4 min!). So unless I break out in hives in a day (which I will obviously report back about), I will continue to use this product! They also make a version for sensitive skin, which I may try next. This area is prone to sensitivity anyway, as you all know, so if you even suspect you might have issues I would go with the sensitive skin version right off the bat.

Happy sunbathing (wear your sunscreen!!)
