I am watching some infomercial on this stuff. Supposedly, you just spray it on and the hair comes right off. They are demonstrating it on a beard as well. I for one have sensitive skin and hate shaving. Has anyone used this stuff?:)

<--- doubtful. anything that would dissolve/burn away or soften hair enough to wipe away would probabyl hurt your skin:p if not, they wouldn't need infomercials.

It is just another depilitory like Nair. My sister used it, it was ok, but it does not work instantly like they show in the infomercial. If you have sensitive skin it would probably break you out in hives. Like any depilitory, it is strong corrosive stuff.

yeah that stuff sucks. We paid $70 for some and tried it once. I think it works better on hair inbetween short and long. Doesn't really work well on the really short stuff or the long stuff. You have to leave it on for a really long time 10 min or so and by then it irritates the skin. Not to mention it doesn't get all the hair. takes it down to stubble. Maybe if you leave it on for 20 min it might but it just eats through the middle of the hair. Very frustrating.

Products like that scare me. I can just imagine what it does to your skin.

the product is just plain crap, like everyone else said in this thread.

Also, you can't use it on your (male) face.... there's a very strong warning on the bottle not to
