"Hair removal treatment at beauty salon is quite expensive.. but I'm concerned about unwanted body hair.." "I wish I could remove unwanted hair on my own, but shaving hurts & irritates my skin.. What should I do?"
These are the troubles faced by many of my friends & family.
Statistics from Japan showed that 48% of women are concerned about unwanted hair on their arms, 45% concerned about armpit hair & 32% concerned about leg hair.
Therefore, I am going to reveal the trick that beauty salon won't tell you about hair removal. It is actually something that you can do at home!
The best way to remove unwanted hair is using..... HAIR REMOVAL CREAM!
Why is that?
Let us compare the pros & cons of using hair removal cream, plucking & shaving.
In a nutshell, hair removal cream is the only hair removal method that maintain smooth & silky skin! Shaving may cause prickly sensation when the hair grows out again, whereas plucking is known to cause hair follicles to swell up.

How to select the most suitable hair removal cream
Out of all the hair removal creams in the market, which one is the easiest to use and most effective?
Hair removal creams work by melting off the unwanted hair using an alkaline base ingredient.
These are the 5 factors that define a good hair removal cream:
- Skin becomes smooth after hair removal
- Ability to maintain smooth & hairless skin for 3 ~ 4 days after hair removal (varies with individual due to hair volume & thickness)
- Does not give prickly sensation when hair regrows
- Contains skin moisturizing ingredients
- Does not have strong unpleasant smell
Bear in mind that, our skin becomes more sensitive after hair removal. Therefore, moisturizing is key to prevent irritated & sensitive skin.
I would suggest that you look for these ingredients in your hair removal products!
Moisturizing ingredients which are good for the skin
・Aloe vera extract
・Soybean extract
・Hyaluronic acid
・Ceramide
・Urea

If everything is fine, you should be ok to use this product!
Correct way of hair removal

*Important*
Make sure that you moisturizes your skin after hair removal! This is because our skin becomes more delicate and prone to dryness after the unwanted hair are removed.

How often should you remove unwanted hair?
Taking into consideration of burden on the skin, I would suggest you to perform hair removal twice a month.
However, for those with high volume of hair, hair removal once weekly might be better if the skin condition is well. Please make sure that if any skin discomfort occur, stop using it immediately.
