nair vs. veet, what's the difference? Options

[frenchaddict88]

i've seen topics about nair AND veet...and some of the replies are that it works reallly well or it doesn't work at all.
if any of you have experienced them both, which one works better and what's the difference between the two?

[dreamerOi]

well they smell the same and look the same and feels the same but veet is better overall. though im kind of allergic to it.

[*mzkandi*]

I dont know the difference but Nair stinks.

[Skyline Drive]

Veet works better! Much better and not to mention it smells better. I like the mousse kind and the one with the bladeless razor. I recommend them both.

As for nair.. I really don't have anything good to say about it.

[gigiopolis]

Veet - if you're planning to use the bladeless razor with the mousse, DO NOT buy aloe vera (w/ the blue cap). DO NOT BUY IT. Buy the one that is called flower something-or-another(w/ a pink cap)...that one smells tons better.

I'm allergic to Nair. That's the difference for me.

[breakingdawn]

I think Nair works better than Veet. Veet left a tiny bit of stubble, and Nair works perfectly.

[pinayprincess]

i think veet is good... better in a way, my friends say the smell of nair is bad for you... and then the veet one is better in that kind of way [there isnt really a smell] or something

[xchrystizzle]

as long as youre not allergic to veet, use it. its much better than nair x_X

there isnt much of a difference, just different chemicals. but they do the same thing...

[piney]

nair smells like shit. veet...its foamy and smells not so chemically.

[..:loveee.NuTTii]

I've never used Veet in my life, but I can tell you Nair smells and gives me a headache >.<

[rx_azngirl]

i have veet and it works really well :] but i think nair is bad because the smell of it stinks hehe

[yummy_delight]

I've never used Veet before, but, as previously stated, I hear it's a lot better than Nair.

Nair smells bad.

[IamRad]

well they smell the same and look the same and feels the same but veet is better overall. though im kind of allergic to it.

im allergic to it also.. i have 2 bottles of it.. and ive used it once..


i hate both... probably cuz its the same as shaving..

i prefer shaving cuz its less messy and it smells good

[shortiiex]

a lot of peopel i know says Veet does not work but nair does

[kill.t3h.r0cK]

Hm, here I go...My friend uses Nair, I use Veet. Overall I'd have to say it depends on your hair type because Veet sure as Hell doesn't work for me...Or I just have to start timing 6 minutes.

Nair;; The normal one smells awful, but the scented one sometimes stings a bit.
Veet;; Doesn't leave a funky smell, but can cause a problem...It doesn't always remove hair, but if really all depends on your hair type as I said.

Ah, I'd recommend Veet, but try both to see what works best for you.

[beambitious]

I tried using Nair..it's a waste of money.
I haven't tried Veet but it sounds like it's better than Nair.

[jue]

i barely have hair growingon my arm or leg. SO i dont shave or wax or pluck.

[Hiphop d[-_-]b]

veet sounds cooler ?
i dont think there really is a difference.

[krazee_but_cutes...]

i've used veet and nair and i honestly can't really tell the difference. some veet smells better than nair, but some nair products are better than the veet. really depends on which one you get. i'm currently using the sensitive skin nair. it works pretty well and doesn't smell awful. though i prefer the veet cold wax strips. very time saving not having to warm it up and all. hope i was of some help
--xoxo--

[ANG33ZY]

I tried neither :-\

[Angel_Cece]

i use veet all ze time.

[Im So Vain]

never used veet, but nair makes my skin feel weird and stinks.

[a.sampson]

[b]DO NOT USE VEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I JUST USED VEET AND GOT A HORRIBLE OUTCOME. THEY SAY LEAVE IT ON FOR 3MINUTES WHICH I DID AND IT DID NOT REMOVE THE HAIR. THEY THAN SAY TRY AGAIN IN 3 MORE MINUTES, I TRIED IN 2 MORE MINUES(TOTAL 5MIN) MY LEGS STARTED BURNING, LITERALLY THE NEXT DAY MY LEGS WERE BURNT I HAD TO USE ALOE ON MY BURNS AND THEY ARE NOW SCABBY ALL OVER MY LEGS. NOT TO MENTION IT DIDNT EVEN TAKE ALL OF THE HAIR OFF ONLY WHERE IT TOOK SKIN AS WELL.

[technicolour]

^ Well then you were obviously allergic to it.


It depends on your own skin, really. Some people are allergic to the chemicals they use to get the hair gone. Like, the last time I used Nair I got all red and I broke out...horribly. Thank god I was just testing it on my hand and I didn't actually do my whole legs with it.

It depends on you and your body. If you have thicker hair on your legs than chances are these things may not work. It just depends. You gotta try it yourself.
