Q&A for How to Use Veet

Yes, especially if you have darker skin. Many people find that their underarms get darker after using the cream.

You should wait until your hair grows out for the best effect. Veet works best if your hair is fully grown out.

Yes, but do not use them immediately after the Veet, as this may cause a painful burning sensation.

Wash the area, so that no residue is left, and always avoid wet areas when waxing.

Yes, you may use Veet on your bikini line.

No, it does not. It leaves the skin smoother than shaving, but it is exactly like shaving. It only removes the hair above the skin and not the root.

It's easier with the spatula, but you don't have to. You can just apply it with your hands! Removing the cream is also easier with the spatula but if you don't have one you can also use toilet paper.

Dryness, itching, rashes, and skin sensitivity are common side effects.

No, if you're using the Veet removal cream it lasts about 3 days before it starts getting prickly, and about 10 days before it starts growing back fully. If you're using wax it also does not permanently remove the hair, although it lasts longer than the cream (it lasts about 5 days before it's prickly and 2 weeks before it starts fully growing back), but it is the more painful version.

Yes, but they can hurt.

The cream does darken the skin, but the wax does not - unless you have sensitive skin.

No you can't, because it will cause inflammation in that area, as with any other product. You should avoid using products in that area unless your doctor says it is okay.

If you go to their website, you could probably find more information on how old you have to be.

Yes, you can. It is a painless way to remove your hair.

You only need to avoid sunbathing (or staying in the sun for extended periods of time) for about 24 hours after using Veet.

Yes, you can. Veet works on any skin color. It doesn't stain your skin or leave marks, it just removes hair.

Yes, you can use Veet for pubic hair, just make sure you don't put the cream on the inner parts or inside your body.

Yes, that would be fine.

No, as this can be dangerous and can cause irritation. It's clearly written on the package that it's not meant for the bikini area.

Using a spatula will get you the best results. Anything will work better than water though since the idea is to drag the hair out and scrape it off.

Yes, you can.

No, you are not supposed to use veet wax strips on your genital area, so you shouldn't use them for a Brazilian wax.

No, do not use a Veet wax strip on pubic hair. The directions say not to apply it to genitals or other sensitive private areas.

It is a myth that hair grows back thicker or longer after shaving, and that is no different with Veet. It does not matter what gender you are, the results are same.

You should consult with your OB/GYN to make sure that it is safe.

They do not always remove small hairs. You may have to wait for your hair to grow out a bit, or perhaps use tweezers.

Yes, you can use it there and no, there is no real danger. Your skin is always much stronger than the pores holding hairs inside your skin. It will, however, be very sensitive, and may be painful. The skin around the testicles is also very elastic, so keep that in mind when removing any hair there. Go slow in this area, and don't get distracted.

No. This is just another alternative to removing hair besides shaving.

You can use potato, cucumber, lemon, baking soda, alcohol, or coconut oil to get rid of dark skin.

No, I wouldn't use a razor. Instead, use the handle of the spoon.
