hair removal cream?


is it safe during pregnancy does anyone know?

like veet or nair or whatever name it goes by these days.

I'm not sure I can face the pain of waxing and I fear my bikini line is getting out of control..(I cant see anymore , but i hate to imagine!..)

I used it last week and it was perfectly fine, to be honest i had shaved a few weeks ago and that came up in a big blotchy rash so i tried Veet and it worked perfectly fine. I got the OH to do it for me !!! ha ha

You may find your skin more sensitive with pregnancy so as you would if using it for the first time do a test patch.

Don't shave - I nearly fell out of the shower

Go and get a wax girl! I promise you it doesn't hurt that much. Well, first time it does, but after that it's fine

It's quick too and means the hair wont come back for ages.

I'd use it. If you're going to get an at home waxing kit, don't get actual wax, get a sugaring kit. It doesn't hurt as much.
