How Hair removal cream remove hair

Hair removal cream remove unwanted hair when applied on the body. But since it only removes the hair on surface level, it is not an epilatory solution.

Hair removal cream contain a component called “calcium thioglycolate”.
This ingredient breaks down the protein, allowing the unwanted hair to be removed with ease and simply washed off.
In addition, Hair removal cream may contain moisturizing ingredients or surfactants to protect the skin.
They leave the skin feeling smooth after hair removal; if you typically struggle from razor burns, these creams are a viable solution.

Typically with men, each strand of hair is thick, so shaving can cause damage and breakouts to the skin. In addition, removing unwanted-hair in large areas with a razor can sometimes be difficult and if too much pressure is applied, it can lead to injuries. Hair-removal creams are suitable for areas in which other removal methods may prove difficult, or for wider areas.

Benefits of Hair removal cream

Hair removal cream can remove a wide range of hair at once, and are recommended for those who want to deal with unwanted-hair as easily as possible. Simply apply the cream and wash it off, a process which only takes about 5 to 15 minutes.

If you find that your skin feels dry or is damaged when using a certain methods of hair-removal, you may find it beneficial to find a cream that is rich with moisturizing ingredients.

1.Preparing to apply the cream

Hair removal cream should be used on clean skin, so it is recommended to use them after a shower or bath.
If you have a lot of hair or it is thick, trim it short beforehand.
These products are more effective if you use them on skin free of debris and sebum.

2.Apply to body

Apply the cream to areas you wish to remove the unwanted-hair from.
Ensure that you spread enough of the product to completely cover the part you want to depilate.

3.Gently rinse off

After about 5-10 minutes, use a tissue or towel to gently wipe the cream off.
Don’t rub too hard when wiping, as this can cause redness and/or damage the skin. Rinse off any remaining residue on the skin with soap.
Again, do so gently and do not apply too much pressure.

Try a hair suppressing lotion on your beard!

Hair removal cream cannot be used on the beard, so instead we recommend using a hair-inhibiting lotion as part of your daily skincare routine.
Simply apply the lotion to your skin.
This type of lotion can be used not only on the beard, but on the arms, shins, and other areas. It can be spread on the skin easily and dries quickly.

Whatever skincare methods you try, it is key to have a regular routine. If you plan to add hair-removal to this routine, we recommend using a moisturizer after your shower or bath so that you cause less strain on your skin when removing the unwanted-hair. Having a daily or regular routine will improve the barrier function on the surface of your skin and will prevent skin problems.
