Olay Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo Reviews

Great for removing facial hair
First off, the packaging can be misleading. The box is big, but when you open it to look at the products, the balm stick is the size of a thin lipgloss stick. The cream is a long tube, similar to a gloss tube. After following the instructions to the "T", I found this to be an effective hair remover. I tested the area underneath the chin. I only smelled the "depilatory" smell when wiping off the cream but it was very faint. Overall, this is a great product to try out. I like the concept of the balm/cream duo. And it works great! — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 8 of 8 people said helpful

Great Product
Wow! I've tried many different hair removal techniques and this was by far the best. There are 2 steps products to apply, one before the other. The first cream is sort of a primer to prevent irritation from the hair removal cream and it worked great. The hair removal cream doesn't smell as bad as most hair removal creams and it didn't irritate my skin either. My upper lift was so soft and smooth, I couldn't believe it! The hair was gone and my skin was not irritated at all! I would love to use this again. — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

doesn't burn
This product really removed my facial hair in 6 minutes! It doesn't sting nor burn thanks to the primer that you swipe on first, which doesn't come with other depilatory products. No bad smell either. They give you such a little amount in little tubes for a big box... — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 5 of 6 people said helpful

Olay Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo
I was sent this product to review from Total Beauty. I have to say I have tried many facial hair removal products, from laser hair reduction, which was painful and not as effective as I would have like, waxing, also very painful and irritating, electrolysis, very expensive and left a few scars, and other depilitory creams like Surgi-Cream which left irritation and red areas so I would have to use it at night so the irritation would fade by the next day. I did a patch test and I had no problems with the Olay Smooth Finish Facial Hair Removal Duo. I did, however have to stop using Retin-A Micro for a few days prior to my first use. I followed the directions and applied it. I knew it was different because I didn't feel that immediate burn I have experienced ier facial hair dipilitories. I left it on as was directed and I was amazed, the hair above my lips was completely gone, my unibrow was gone, and the hairs on my chin were gone and I had no irritation like I have experienced with other products like this. I am really impressed with the results. My skin was very smooth, not one trace of hair where I applied it, it didn't smell as bad as other products I have tried, and my skin didn't burn and I had no red marks where I had applied it. I am really glad Total Beauty allowed me to review this product. I may not have tried it otherwise based on prior experiences with products similar to this. I gave it a 10 because up to now, it has been the best product I have ever used to remove facial hair. I plan on purchasing it after my trial set is gone. I am totally sold. — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 85 of 89 people said helpful

Keepig the hairy fuzz at bay!
Honestly I wasn't including too much from this hair removal system considering my past experiences left much to be desired. I intended and ended up using this all over my face. I've been blessed with a full face of fuzz thanks to my parents and grandparents. The directions were easy to follow. The balm was something different and I wasn't too sure about it, but wow, it really made a difference. I applied a thin layer of the balm, step 1, all over my face and gently rubbed it in. I applied a medium layer of the removal cream all over my face, avoiding my eyebrows. I waited for 8 minutes since I have fairly coarse hair and proceeded to wipe it off with a wash cloth. I was amazed at a few things. 1. How well it worked. Everywhere I applied this, it effectively removed the hair, no need for a second coat, something I've always had to do in the past with other products. 2. This didn't leave my face looking burned or feeling numb - that's a major plus in my book and one of the reasons I stopped using hair removal cream on my face. 3. How soft my face was after using this! Wow - my skin looks awesome and feels wonderful. Bad me, I keep touching it! My husband actually told me the skin on my face looked really soft and supple. Um "thank you"! 4. How quick & easy the whole process was. This was cake. No complications in using this and given I used this all over my face, I anticipate getting at least another application out of this box. If you're doing smaller areas, this system should last you quite awhile. I'm definately going to be using this on a monthly basis to keep the hair fuzz at bay! — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 34 of 34 people said helpful

Surprisingly No Irritation
This was easy to use. The balm forms a moisture barrier to prevent irritation. Easy to wipe off cream & balm with a tissue. No redness, just soft, smooth, velvety, normal skin. The only con was the scent of the cream smelled like hair dye and it was right under my nose so it made me a little nauseous. — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Works well, pleasant smell
This product works well to remove the light peach fuzz that many have above their lips. It works just as well for fine hair on the cheeks. There is no harsh or bad chemical smell. The skin guarding balm that is part of the duo prevents burning or stinging. Hair removal is fairly quick and easy. — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

kills hair without killing skin
Hair removal products I've used in the past would irritate my skin. I wanted to try this since it came with a skin protecting balm. I had doubts that the balm would make the hair remover cream effective. To my pleasant surprise, they work great together. No hair plus no skin irritation. Why didn't they come up with this sooner? — 1 year, 8 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 1 people said helpful
