GLOW UP HAIR REMOVAL CREAM FOR SENSITIVE AND NORMAL SKIN REVIEW + TUTORIAL

Here's a review on GLOW UP Hair Removal Cream for Sensitive And Normal Skin.

I don't have very hairy legs, thankfully, so I don't need to do any form of maintenance on that part aside from cleaning and applying lotion to it. The hair strands on my legs are thin and sparse-I thought they were okay so I never thought of depilating them-ever. But curiosity got the best of me. One time, I wondered how my legs would feel and look like without any strand of hair so after taking a shower, I just grabbed a razor and shaved away. Afterwards, I caressed my legs and they felt super, duper, mega smooth-it was the softest my legs have ever been and I got hooked on the feeling, and the ending was leg shaving became part of my weekly routine.

However, it got too tedious for me somewhere along the way: I realized, it made my long skin care routine even longer because hair grew faster, thus I have to shave more often. I tried DIY waxing, but I'm not really good at that stuff and it is more tedious than shaving due to the tons of things I have to prepare every time. I'm not too keen on pricey, fancy electronic depilating tools and derma/salon hair removal treatments too!

Despite the challenges of having smooth, hair- free legs, I still want them anyway, but I wondered: could there be an easier way to achieve this?

And then I remembered, I had GLOW UP Hair Removal Cream, this depilating cream that promises to remove hair in a flash. I think you've all heard about this product before-I did,

but I just tried it recently. I decided to try it because my legs were looking a little fuzzy already and after just 10 minutes, it gave me super silky legs. It's super fast, safe, affordable, effective, and it gave me the feeling that my leg hair was removed professionally!

Ladies, this is how you fight fuzz the easy, inexpensive, and convenient way. Sharing with you my results, the steps, and personal tips on this product. Click READ MORE for these! ;)

The ones I have are the For Normal Skin and For Sensitive Skin variants. I chose to go with the one for Sensitive Skin because I assumed it had the gentlest formulation, therefore it was perfect for a first- timer like me. I also tested it on my upper thigh to be extra sure (it's a part that's easy to hide in case an unwanted incident took place) and so far, so good. If you will use this product in the future, I would advise you to do the same things as well for safety reasons. Please keep the box too because it has everything you need to know to use the product safely. Follow the instructions to the letter and always remember that your safety lies in your own hands.

Both sizes come with their very own spatula, but I think the smaller tube is better off on smaller body parts such as the armpit, feet, chest, and arms just because its spatula is quite small.

This product has a rich, white- colored, cream consistency, but it has a pungent Ammonia- like odor and it reminds me of hair color, actually. Good thing the odor isn't that strong and it is not bothersome unless you smell it closely (which I won't advise you to do!). Whew!

Let's now put this product to the test!

GLOW UP HAIR REMOVAL CREAM FOR SENSITIVE AND NORMAL SKIN IN ACTION

First body part to go were my legs. I used Glow Up Hair Removal Cream For Sensitive Skin in this trial. The cream felt soft and cool, and I felt no burning, stinging, or itchy sensation upon application.

The Beauty Tanu says: I distributed the cream on my legs in a swift manner while trying to cover each part evenly. Before using this product, it is better to plan how and where you will distribute it so no area will be left under treated or over treated. If you find that a little intimidating and spending 30- 40 minutes removing hair is fine by you, you can section the areas and treat them separately.

How did I distribute the product onto my legs? I used the back part of the spatula. I did not use my fingers or hands for safety purposes.

Here's a close- up of my hairy legs. :D Instructions said to leave the product on for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on your progress with it.

After 5 minutes, I cleaned off one part and figured that the cream still needed more time to dissolve all my hair so I left it on for another 5 minutes-it stayed on for 10 minutes all in all. Instructions said to not leave the product on beyond 10 minutes because it might burn the skin.

The Beauty Tanu says: When using this product, please be mindful of the time or better yet, use a stopwatch/timer as guide because one small mistake can cost you your skin's health and beauty, especially since this has a strong formulation. Watch out for any form of discomfort or irritation while using the product. Wash off the product right away with water at the slightest occurrence of these unfavorable sensations and don't put anything on the affected area and cleanse it with a very mild soap only in the next 3 days. Visit your dermatologist immediately if rashes develop after usage.

After 10 minutes, I swiftly scraped off the gunk from my legs and rinsed the residue off of my skin with cold water. There were a few spots that still had hair, but that was fine by me. Besides, I couldn't reapply the product right away (not even on the same day) because it is not recommended-I might end up burning my skin. I'll just use this product better next time.

The Beauty Tanu Says: Use cold water when rinsing off this cream-using warm/hot water on newly- depilated skin may irritate or sensitize it. Apply a mild moisturizer on the treated part after the treatment to prevent dryness and exfoliate it after 24 hours to prevent ingrown hair. Give your skin at least 72 hours before using this product again.

Now where did all the hair go? :) This product does work closely to the roots and if you have fine hair, the smooth effect will be much more noticeable. It made my legs hair- free and felt as if I've just had a full leg wax because they were super smooth! I only had a minor problem with this product and that is I developed a few red spots on the shin areas right after usage, but they went away after an hour, thankfully. This is why patch testing is important-it can actually save your life!It's been two weeks since I used this product and even if I already have a few regrowths, my legs still feel and look smooth overall. That said, the 100ml tube can last for at least 2-3 uses for half leg depilation and 1-2 uses for full leg depilation, at least on me. It's initially more affordable than waxing (usually starts at P700.00 for one leg) and laser treatments (usually starts at P3,500.00 for one leg).Off topic: But how about in the long run? Which of these treatments will allow you to save more? That would be laser treatment, darlings. However, not everyone can splurge on laser so for frugal girls like me, Glow Up will do!In sum, I've had a pleasurable experience with Glow Up and I'm making it a beauty staple. It's easy to use, pretty much safe to use, and I appreciate that the instructions are very easy to understand that even an 8 year old can follow it. If you wanna fight fuzz anytime and anywhere without spending too much time and money, Glow Up will be your best friend! ;)
