i found it at walmart in the shaving section....it said it's specifically designed for black men to reduce bumps....it's neat....you mix this powder with water and just slap it on for 5 minutes and rinse it off....and no i have no red marks on my face or neck at all! for the past 14 years i have had to deal with the humilation of shaving and having razor burn and bumps....NEVER EVER AGAIN! good luck ya'll....it's really my miracle....i let my husband rub my face for the first time in 4 years! i was so happy i started crying! i'll let ya'll know how long it lasts i'm thinking at least a few days! ttyl!

Japan, I'm sure you could get it shipped. I would be glad to ship it to you if you wanted.

That's really sweet of you. I checked walmart.com immediately, but of course the online stores doesn't carry those products. Haven't really looked any place else yet. I may take you up on that offer. Thanks!

I have been to 2 Walmarts in my area, and neither of them have it! If Walgreens online has it, do you think Walgreens the store would?? I'll try that, too! I am so psyched to try this stuff!!

Default So, which one are you using ?

I went to walgreens.com and found the Magic powder (they also have cream, BTW).
But which one are you using, the gold, platinum, red, or blue??? And why are there so many?

And I cannot find out for the life of me how much they charge for shipping... (Seems you have to supply your CC info first, and I'm not going to do that) Oh well.

Kathy, could you do me a huge favor and give the the exact product name (meaning, is it the red, blue, gold or platinum magic) and bar code from the one you're using? I may be able to order it through our commissary here if I have that info...
Thanks and have a great Sunday!

P.S. Alana, once you've found and tried it, can you let us know how it worked for you?

Kathy, i was wondering about ur hair growth. Mine is dark and coarse and i am very light skinned. I guess $2 is not a big investment...i should give it a try.

Default Wooooo Hooooooo!!!!!

I DID find it at Walgreens - they had 2 different types, one said "fragrant" and I didn't want that (sensitive to smells), the other one is in a silver can, so I'm guessing I got the "platinum" one.

Can I just say... WOW!?!?! And, ummmmm - WHY WAS THIS MADE FOR A GUY!?!?! No stinky chemical smell, doesn't burn, and IT WORKS!!! I guess if this got out - the rest of the hair removal industry would be outa business, wouldn't they?

I had a few (3) resistant hairs that I still had to pluck out - no big deal. I got a little redness that went away within an hour, and wasn't really any different than the redness I get when I pluck all the hairs out with tweezers.

I did my chin, neck and upper lip. The can says it is meant for facial hair only, but I did my fingers too - and it worked there! (yes I said fingers - I think I'm part hobbit). I just shaved my arms today, but I'm gonna try them too in a coupla days!

Thank you for letting me know to find it at Walgreens!!! I was so disappointed not to find it at Wal-Mart. BTW the sales clerk there was really rude, and although I did not state it was for personal use (most people don't notice my stubble if I wear any make-up at all), she left me little dignity. Well poop on her, I'll go to Walgreens!

Bless you!!!!!!
