Default Jergens

I used jergens and i felt like it slowed down my growth (if i shave my legs in the morning there's stubble that evening). So I could go about every other day shaving rather than every day. The thing is you do have to use it everyday and I'm lazy so I stopped after a period of time.

I bought some... a fairly cheap brand I admit... and only used it twice because it smelled yukky! In the bottle it wasn't too bad but when I got it on my legs it was just gross. I don't think I'm patient enough to wait for an improvement when it's not even nice to use.

I bought the Johnson and Johnson one, and I think it did work on my legs - only you have to use it every day, and I can never remember to! I think if you used it religiously it might just help.

The Jergens one worked for me. I ran out of it though, and never bought it again. I don't really know why.

Met has helped much more though!

I tried the Biore a couple of years ago, and all it did was bleach the hair which made it harder to pluck.

I used the Biore hair minimizing facial lotion. It worked--to an extent. It made hte hairs light and less coarse, but they didn't go away. And because they were less coarse, they were harder to pluck. But all of this was while I was still on BCP, so my facial hair was nothing comapred to what it is now.

Good luck!

i tryed veet minimising cream and it didnt seem to be working so i used it more often for a while and it really did slow down hair growth only i was using it 5/6 times a day and ended up needing to shave 1ce every5 days instead of ever dy or two and i finished it soo quick after that but its too much effort for me to doing all the time.

I use it after I wax and it's made no difference. I'm still looking for that miracle.
