Nad's Soothing Men's Depilatory Cream for Unwanted Coarse Body Hair Removal, 6.8 Oz (Pack of 2)

Great value, gentle on sensitive skin even the very sensitive areas in the anus and pubic area. Trim your hair first till it's relatively short. Then put this on 2-4 minutes and wipe it off in a cool shower leaves you baby bottom smooth.

It works well, but I would recommend using it with care, especially if you have fair colored skin or hair. I took me several tries to finally get it right without getting the chemical burn. But, when it is done right, it works really well. I have noticed that it seems be work better on the boys than on my shoulders. It makes the boys as smooth as a baby's bottom. Below are suggestions on how I have successfully use this product without getting burned.First, I recommend that you have hydrocortisone lotion available before you use it.I would not recommend leaving the Nad's cream on for more than 4 minutes, especially if you have fair colored skin or hair. I got burned the first time I used it. Also, I have found that I am more sensitive to it on my shoulders and by my neck than I am in the lower region.I have found that it doesn't work well on longer hair. As others have posted, it is chemically burning the hair away. The longer the hair there is the longer it takes to burn off the hair (and the skin in the process). I would recommend shaving first and then wait a couple days to use this or just trim the hairs as short as you possibly can get them. I know, the purpose of this product is so that you don't have to shave. This would be just for the first time you use the cream, as long as you use it consistently without letting the hairs get too long. If you don't want to do either of these, I think you could use the cream for 4 minutes and repeat the process daily until you get the desired affect (I have not tried this to know for sure).Next, I would recommend that you do it in stages. If you try do it a large area at once, I can lead to you getting burned. If it takes you 2 or 3 minutes to apply the cream and then you start the 4 minute timer, the area that was done first will have had the cream on that area for 6 or 7 minutes and will probably burn you (personal experience).Finally, I have found that it is best to use cool water to remove the cream when the time comes. The way that I do it is that I will hop in the shower at the 4 minute mark and wash off the cream, using my hands, in cool water. I set the temperature cooler than normal but warm enough that I am still comfortable. When I used warmer water (normal shower temperature), it seemed to burn more than when I used the cooler water. The first time I used the Nad's cream, I tried to wash it off using a wash cloth at the sink. That was an epic fail. Since then, I always wash it off in the shower.There are times that I still have issues after using this cream. If the area seems red or feels irritated after I get out of the shower, I will apply a generous amount of hydrocortisone cream to the area and it will quickly clear up. If I wait and then use the hydrocortisone, it doesn't seem to work. For some reason, I only seem to need it on my shoulders and near my neck. I haven't needed to apply it to the boys or any other part of the nether region.I hope you find this helpful.

I have extremely sensitive skin, but with what I describe as a medium level of hair across my body (blonde to medium brown) and hating the look of it in many spots, I gave another brand a try. That one really was bad: it wasn't the worst on my skin, though not great, but it hardly got any hair off and after scraping and scarping my skin did burn and hurt for a few days. It was worthless. But I wasn't giving up. We have a wax machine, but with my skin, I admit, I don't want to try wax. And my wife has shaved me on a few occasions, but it's rough on my skin, comes out patchy, and kills my razors. So... we decided to give another brand a try. After reading reviews and narrowing down to 2 products, I decided to give Nad's for Men Hair Removal Cream the first try... and I'm glad I did.We started with a smaller patch of about 4"X4" - that went well. She covered the spot as directed, let it on for 3 1/2 minutes, and took it off. No pain while it was on, no pain wiping it off, no pain after, so she went for the whole back. Again, 3 1/2 minutes (longer by the time it was all off) and then wiping it off - it took several washcloths and water. There was some redness from the wiping, but no pain from the cream. I would say it took about 5 minutes of washing it off - with almost all of the hair coming off easily - but there were places that needed several passes - when my wife said to shower. She didn't want to overdo washing or leaving it there too long. I jumped the shower and because it was my back, she told me to put soap onto a sponge, then run that down my back with the water spray. It worked very well. According to my wife, there was no residue on the back - I did have to wipe off along the line under my arms near the armpit with another wash cloth - it was the residue, but it came off fairly easily at this point.It's a day later, my back feels 100% fine, there is no burning or redness, and the hair is mostly gone. There are a couple small areas where she didn't think she got enough on it or they were earliest being removed. But overall, from her perspective, it worked great. From mine, I'm really happy.I do not think it's something I'll do a lot. Because of the sensitivity of my skin I'll see how it grows in - time, feeling (it can itch), and so forth, but I think it's something I'll do during swimsuit season, but leave grow over winter. That's mostly so I don't harm my skin long term from exposure to chemicals repeatedly. But that's just what I'm thinking now; who knows what I do long term.Overall I'm thrilled with Nads and will be using it again. We didn't do my backside and she wants to practice blending the line between hair and no hair - it's so darn obvious - but I think we have a winner with this product!

It works, but no better than a good set of fine trimmers. May as well stick with those if dealing with flat surfaces.Still gets 3 stars for being able to work better than trimmers in the intimate areas where trimmer nicks are more prone to happen.

I was very skeptical and now I know why. I used the product two times. The first it caused a rash everywhere I used it. I thought it may have been because it was the first time and my skin was super sensitive. The second time was exactly the same as the first. I followed the directions to the tee, but it gave me a rash each time. I suggest to all users to be super careful. I’m going to shop around for a better option and one that is easier to use and not as harsh on my skin. :-(
