I am forever knicking the heck outta my legs and I was wondering if any of you have used the Veet system! Was it worth the money?! :confused:

I used it a few times, however, I have very coarse hair, and didn't find it as effective or easy as shaving. Plus for me anyway, I had to use a lot and it got to be very expensive. I think it ended up being two applications (full legs) in each can.

I've used it and loved it. Usually lasts about a week or so with me. Since it is kind of pricey, now I only get it if it's for a special event (wedding or such) or catch it in the Target clearance bin.
Hey! I've used it before. But I also needed about a can and a half to completely cover all the areas I wanted. It is expensive but check your local drug stores b/c I've seen them on sale several times. It did make my legs smooth but only for about 2~3 days. It was the same as shaving for me. Try it to see if it works for you. Good luck!

I haven't used it yet, but received it for free through Walgreens rebate offer.

I don't mind shaving my legs and armpits with a razor BUT i absolutely CANNOT shave my bikini area with a razor or i get horrible ingrown hairs that hurt like you wouldn't believe. I actually have a couple of dark scars from them. I've tried a few depilatories in the past but they all had more cons than pros with the exception of not giving me in grown hairs!
I bought Veet Rasera over the weekend. The one with the plastic bladeless razor and i used it last night. (picture below) OMG! It's the best stuff ever. I've used depilatories before but they were powders that had to be mixed and smelled to the high heavens. I've used Nair too which in my opinion never worked and smelled horrible too! (unless it's been improved)
Veet worked the fastest, i only had to leave it on for 4 minutes then used the bladeless razor and ALL the hair came right off. (i took a scissors to the longer hair before i used it because i've learned from the past that shorter hair allows the product to work more efficiently) It had a slight smell but it wasn't an overwhelming chemical smell. I would definitely recommend this product at least for the bikini area. It's easy to apply (mouse) and only has to sit for a few minutes and the bladeless razor took the hair right off without scrubbing. It's the easiest depilatory i've ever used! I'm absolutely hooked and now i don't have to fret over shaving my bikini area just to put on a swimsuit ;) Too bad i didn't find this product 3 weeks ago before i went to Mexico!

2 Crazy Pugs- For the most part. I didn't chance the most sensitive area. I only left a small patch at the top and got as close as i could further down :D

I normally use Veet with Aloe Vera for depilatory.
I leave it on for about three or four minutes and the all haiur is gone after using the razor. Here in German Veet is not so expensive , about $2 or €1,50
