Veet Spray On Cream Review

I know a lot of hair removal creams stink, and I've tried Veet before so I know that it's no exception - but yes, literally smells like rotten eggs.

The normal thick cream is messy as, so I was hoping the spray on cream would be a bit better. But no. Just as messy. Just as smelly.

My hairs a really fine, and this didn't even remove everything.

For the hassle of this stuff, I think I'd honestly rather be a hairy beast.

For nearly $20 a bottle you’d be expecting a product that works, right? Right?? That’s certainly what I expected.

Pros: - Easy application, just spray on - I like the tool it comes with, I actually find this really useful to use with other hair removal products

Cons: - Nasty smell (but they’re all like that, aren’t they?) - The spray is very uneven and I found I had to use my hands to smooth over the areas that got missed - Doesn’t last long at all - Doesn’t work well at all

I always read the instructions for these products carefully and follow them to a T, but even so I did not get a result anywhere near what the bottle claimed. My legs were so scratchy and hair still that I needed to shave afterwards, which was super annoying as I could have just done that from the start. Not worth it, in my opinion.

I bought this on sale because I thought a spray-on hair removal cream might be easier to use than a hair removal cream from a tube. This review is for the “Sensitive skin” edition.

The Veet spray on hair removal cream comes in a 150ml can, with a curved, clear plastic scraper attached. The foam itself is white. The instructions say to spray onto the legs from 5cm away, and to leave on for 5 minutes (no more than 10 for stubborn hair). If the hair comes away easily with the scraper after 5 minutes, then you can rinse it all off in the shower using the scraper to remove the rest of the hair.

There are strong positives and negatives to this product. The positives are that I found it to be very effective for removing my hair. My leg hair is mostly medium brown, and reasonably fine. The hair came away easily after 5 minutes, and the scraper is a handy tool for scraping off the hair. Afterwards my legs felt smooth, and the regrowth is much less stubbly because it has not been cut such as when I use a razor.

The negatives are that this has a terrible chemical smell. It really stinks. It also creates a terrible mess. I can see why they suggest standing in your bathtub or shower to apply this because the white foam gets everywhere! It is also very slippery if you get it on the floor, so be careful. Also, it is hard to control the pressure on the nozzle. Sometimes the cream would come out very thickly, and other times it was sparser. I have quite short legs, but I still had to use quite a lot of foam to cover them properly. The second time I went to use this, I only got one leg covered before the foam ran out! This seems quite expensive for a hair removal product to only get 1 ½ uses out of it.

Altogether, I think this is a good idea for a product, but it is very messy and smelly. I will stick to using a hair removal cream for now.

Didn't work at all I think I really liked the idea looks great and all but just didn't remove the hairs. I still had to shave after using it. The only good thing I liked about it is my legs felt nice afterwards kinda silky would have been fantastic if it had of removed the hairs.

I got this product with the hope of being a faster way than shaving my legs. The product says to leave the cream on your legs for about 6 minutes then use the tool to scrap your hairs off. This did not work. I tried this product more than once to see if it would work with a longer amount of time or if it worked better if my leg hairs were softer. Neither of this changed the way it worked. It still didn't work. Plus to make it a worse experience the smell was horrible !!! This product went straight into the bin!

I have tried this product from the brand in this form and in a sensitive version and another aswell. I have found them all to be a waste of money. They are so expensive and I have found NO positive results. They barely remove any hair after the messy effort of using it. The smell is strong and chemically and can make you a bit dizzy if you haven't got the window open. I would tell all to steer clear of veet hair removal creams. It also leaves a strong stinging sensation behind my knees and around my knees, perhaps my skin is sensitive there, but it was just horrible and went straight into the trash.

I have used this in different forms on occasion over the years, cream, gel, spray and each time I have come back with the promise I would not touch that version again. This is why I have tried the different forms, I think that they have made the formula gentler and maybe it will be different this time. Ensure the window is open as this stinks and not in a good way. Do a patch test first the day before. Don’t use this in any other place other than the bathroom, use old towels and use a timer. Some things don’t matter if you don’t use a timer, eg leaving olive oil in your hair to condition and soften, Veet hair removal creams are not one of those products. -It is easy to use, spray on, wait the time allotted and remove using the scraper. Make sure it is all washed off and then wash it again.

Results – something in this product does not agree with my skin. I don’t have sensitive skin by any means but this is not good. Maybe my skin was dry but that should not have affected it. It looked like I dry shaved and had heaps of razor burn. I can’t dispute, it did remove most of the hair but no results are worth this. At least I didn’t need to get dressed up to go anywhere that I couldn’t wear jeans to. I did a patch test first and had no reaction, so I figured I was good to go. I tossed the rest of the can.

Would I recommend this to people? As a last resort for a hair removal option, the results last as long as shaving and shaving would be cheaper than this, depending on the razors and shaving cream you use. I would recommend keeping hairy legs over using this.

I didn't like this product, I found it awkward and messy, it didn't remove the hair in one go. It also smelt terrible.

i was so excited for an easier alternative to shaving. i was so disappointed! it smells disgusting and just straight up doesn't work. Waste of money :(
