Review of Sally Hansen Hair Remover Spray-On Shower Off 6 oz.

I have literally been waiting for this to show up online so I can tell people how awful this product is. I am usually not this harsh w/ a product, but I can't help it. I am only giving it 1 star b/c it's a good concept (& that's as low as Amazon will let us rate!).

I know this is sort of a long reveiw for a beauty product, but PLEASE read! And yes, even though I have used other hair removers, I did the "allergy" test as suggested on the can, & I still had a reaction.

Bottle states, "Drip free spray for Legs, Body, Arms & More" "Soothing Botanicals" "Great Vanilla Scent"... It is none of those things. First of all, if you plan on using it for more than your legs, you will need more than 1 container (but I strongly encourage you not to purchase this at all!!!). I started w/ my arms & did not have enough to finish my legs: just over my knees; and I am just your average size.

2nd-- No, it doesn't drip, it sprays all over the place!! Luckily, I wasstanding in my shower w/ the curtain shut. It clogs & does not spray evenly at all. Also, makes the shower VERY slippery!

3rd-- The can says to wait 3 minutes, test an area & leave on no more than 10 minutes total if hair does not wipe off easily. I tested after 3 min, & was planning on leaving it on a little longer. After 2 more minutes, my skin was on fire!! I couldn't get it off fast enough. It was hard not to rub, as my skin was itching so bad, but I didn't want to irritate it anymore. My skin was so red & splotchy, & I even had a few bumps (not too many, though)... it looked horrible. I even had co-workers ask me what happened the next day!

4th-- It didn't even remove most of the hair!! And my skin was too irritated to even shave the remaining. Even when I tried, the hair seemed to actually be *melted* into my skin-- would NOT come off!!!

Just as an end note, it doesn't smell bad at first (although, it doesn't smell like vanilla, either), but after you have it on, it smells like any other hair remover. And the scent does not wash off. For the next 3 or 4 days (NO EXAGERATION), after my skin would get wet in the shower, it would smell like the remover.

I cannot stress this enough: DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!! :(
