GiGi Sensitive Hair Removal Cream For Face

Have used this product for years to remove hair from my upper lip. I always leave on for the 8-9 minute range and have never had any irritation and it is very effective in removing all of the unwanted hair. I never use the calming bond that come with it - I actually usually just toss it along with the box.

I have used soft waxes for years. I use this on my face. I have never had an issue. I use a semi damp paper towel to wipe away the hair and product. It doesn’t burn or leave my face red. The hair really does wipe away. The package comes with a calming crème or lotion. A tube lasts for a long time.

Easy to use and it does the job.

I received the product without a broken package however the Box containing the product was opened. When I saw it was opened I opened each of the tubes to see if they were tampered with and I find neither of those tubes had a seal on it. Usually it comes with a very thin layer of foil as a sealer over the tubes indicating it is brand new. After seeing no seal I looked at the color. I also checked to see if they were full. Both were full however the color of the soothing cream which is usually whiter than the hair removal was a orange color indicating that this product must be very old and/or tampered with. I didn't want to put it on my face to prove anything but will return immediately!!!

TLDR: Great product! Read the directions and it should work, some Nairs like smell and sensitivity and slight burning after use.I used this after seeing it on TikTok, and noticing that Jolen wasn’t as effective as it had been for me. I used it on my upper lip, for disclosure, I’m a 34 year old south Asian woman, so we tend to be blessed with hair. I read the directions, dampened my ankle, applied a thin ish layer to my ankle, after 5 minutes, I removed with dampened with lukewarm water toilet paper and felt my skin was fine (no redness, irritation ), and then repeated the steps to my upper lip, after the first 5 minutes, I felt that hair wasn’t removing that well, so I left the cream on for another 2.5 minutes( directions say max time to leave on is 8 minutes), and most of the hair removed. I still had some stubborn hair so I applied another application for a 5 minute period (this is where I went rogue, and is probably why my upper lip is sensitive, as the directions clearly advise to wait 48 hours before repeating an application). This 2nd rogue application completely removed the hair and I’m really happy with the outcome. Go rogue as you see fit and based on how your sensitive your skin is, what worked for me, may be too aggressive for you.Pros: cheap, works if you take the time to read the directions and follow them. You really don’t need much for an upper lip area.Cons: there is some (but tolerable) burning the day after, but I used the soothing cream that comes in the package and also applied Vaseline, and I anticipate the burning to go away in the next day.Also there’s a very “Nairs” type smell to the product, but it’s tolerable.I’m interested to see how long before I feel I need to use the product again… good luck!
