I Love Looking Good

Hair removal is an important beauty regime in every women’s life. We either shave, wax, epilate or undergo a more permanent form of hair removal through intense pulse light (IPL) – for those who are wealthy enough.
 
I personally favour epilation. But when pressed for time, epilating is definitely not one of the fastest method of hair removal. In fact, it takes me about 30 to 40 mins to completely get rid of hair on both of my legs. Unfortunately, with an unpredictable schedule, time is never on my side. Thankfully, there are other alternatives. Recently, one of my sister’s bought Veet’s Spray-On Hair Removal Cream for sensitive skin.

I’ve been writing a bit about epilating and waxing quite some time ago. Now a new product is available at Watsons. The Kenassy Soft & Smooth Hair Removal Puff. Yes! You read it right, a hair removal puff.

The first hair removal puff which needs no cream application or water. This product here really caught my eyes and since I can’t stand the sight of hair, I thought I should give this new product a try. It is definitely very affordable retailing at only S$8.50.

I was feeling gleeful after my purchase. I thought to myself that IF this product works, no more ‘torturing’ myself with my epilator. Well, unfortunately for me, I wasn’t really satisfied with how the puff works. It took me quite sometime to know how the puff functions and by the time I could get hair off, my two arms were aching. Also, the puff doesn’t pull out hair like epilating or waxing. It simply “cuts off” the top just like a shaver.  

At the end of the day, I have a mild stubble like feel from my legs (the BIGGEST turn off so far unless you have the patience to puff away your hair every other night). Not all women have high pain threshold (which is why some of us opt not to have children), this is a good a cheap alternative to shaving, waxing and epilating. It doesn’t last as long as hair removal creams, it is however slightly cheaper.

Eventhough epilating hurts at the beginning, I’m used to it and it is much more effective in keeping ugly unwanted hair at bay.

I dunno when I started being particular abt having a single strand of stray hair on my body. Except for my eyebrows, hands and hair on my head (duh!) I totally loathe the idea of having hair on my body. I think every women and girls out there should groom themselves to a certain level that they wouldn’t be the centre of unwanted or unnecessary attention. And they should start as soon as they reach puberty if they could afford it.

I am obsessed abt being very “neat”. This is where epilating, shaving and waxing comes into the picture. I shall not go into nitty-gritty details abt my own personal hygiene but to share abt the products and services that are available out there.
