Hair Removal Safety Tips

1. Follow Directions

   Using Veet is easy and each hair removal product comes with specific instructions in it’s packaging. No matter which Veet you choose, ensure you read and follow all the instructions on the packaging before you begin hair removal. Our easy to follow guides will lead you from start to finish in no time.

2. Perform a Patch Test

   Before using any of our Veet hair removal products, it is important to test how your skin will react. Perform a patch test on your skin by applying and removing the hair removal product to a small section of the area that you wish to treat beforehand. After 24 hours, if there are no adverse reactions, please continue to use the product normally.[1] Be sure to repeat this product for every Veet hair removal product that you choose to use.

3. Exfoliate Your Skin

   If you choose one of our waxing products, we recommend that you exfoliate your skin 24 hours before using any of our Veet hair removal products.[1] Exfoliating your skin will prime the hairs and allow for ideal results. This step is especially important for users who suffer from ingrown hairs. Please note that some people experience redness after exfoliating so allow time for any redness to die down before expecting the finished look.

4. Keep Your Skin Clean

   Veet hair removal products work best when skin is free from any natural oils or residue from moisturizers. For optimal results, we recommend that your skin is clean and dry.

5. Wait Before Applying Other Products

   After use, please wait 24 hours before using any antiperspirants, scented products or artificial tanning products.[2]

   When you are ready to get started, Veet has a product for all your hair removal needs. With Veet, it’s easy to achieve touchably smooth skin without even leaving your home. You can do this!
