I have been using this product for about a month now. It does lighten unwanted hair, but it also irritates the skin. When I apply the bleach to my facial hair, I start to feel a burning and tingling sensation. I thought it would go away with repeated use, but that wasn't the case. It still burns, but it's not that bad. I like the natural appearance it gives. It's not too light. It blends in with my skin color.

i think it's works very well, but the "bleach stuff" has too little...if u r using a lot, u have to buy many boxes ....they should make it in bigger and different sizes...

I have been using this product for over 2 months now.It effectively

bleaches unwanted hair both body and face.I was worried that it would

be too strong for the face.it stings a bit if i use it within 24 hours

of a skin peel or if i have a pimple. so i wait at least 48 hours

after a facial before i use it. Now i don't have any problems Maybe

it because of the pre-bleaching conditioner. I like the fact that it

bleaches all the hairs evenly unlike some creams that bleach the top

layer leaving the hairs near the skin darker. It also thins and softens

the hairs as it bleaches them to a point where they cant be seen and they are

so soft i can hardly feel them :quite surprising since my hair is quite

coarse (am light skinned negro). I bleach the hair till its a shade or 2

darker than i want it because i noticed it continues to slowly bleach the

hair after washing off even for as long as 2 days later especially with

sun exposure. It has a strong ammonia like smell so make sure the room

is well ventilated when using it. more so for large areas.The hairs stay

bleached for quite a long time (over 3 weeks) even as the hairs continue

to grow. It takes less time during each re-treatment to get the desired

results so keep checking to avoid over bleaching.Its much thinner than the

other cream bleaches i have used so it spreads out well and a little goes

a long way,with the conditioner being more than enough to use on the whole

body.The mixing isn't such a hassle as long as you keep the powder to cream

ratio of 1 to 2 according to the size of the area you want to cover. Am glad

i bought in bulk.I intend to stick to this product.My skin doesn't look so

dull under the dark hairs and I don't have to worry about shaving and razor

bumps.Even make up glides more easily without caking from sticking to the

hairs on my face.

If you have the thin wispy hairs on your body this stuff will dye it blonde. But if you have what is called "terminal" think & dark hairs then this stuff will not do a thing to it. I have the thicker darker hairs on my face & arms & I left the bleach on for the time they said & it did nothing. For over two days I tried various methods, leaving it on longer, putting it on thicker, putting it on thinner, tried not using the activator, tried using the activator, tried using more bleach, tried using less bleach, tried using more activator....you get the point, & it still didn't bleach the hairs, the thick hairs remained dark & black. It also started to dry & cake up o n my face after only a few minutes & then started falling off in chunks so I'm not sure if something was wrong with it or what, & it wasn't sitting out too long or anything, I used it immed. after mixing it. I might try the Jolen creme bleach as I'm told it works for everyone, then again Sally Hansen claimed this bleach was for dark stubborn hairs & it did nothing for me so who knows. But like I said if you have real thin wispy hairs here & there it will work & it will bleach it blonde, but if you're a dark skinned Italian like me with very dark thick hairs you're out of luck, electrolysis might be the only way to go for us.

Sally Hansen's Cream (creme) Hair Bleach works. Please use the skin conditioner first. Use less of the activator if it burns your skin or use oatmeal lotion or aloe vera to calm the skin so that it doesn't burn.

I have used Sally Hansen's cream bleach for my face and body for over ten years. It works well if you don't use too much of the activator and use the skin conditioner,oatmeal lotion or aloe before hand. I hope that helps.

The bleach is effective, although I notice like other reviewers have mentioned that it stings a little. It seems like you have to use 1/3 of the bottle to use it, and I only use a small amount and the container is still half full of wasted bleach. Because of this I probably won't be buying this brand again.

I cannot begin to tell you how pleased I am with this product! Although it does burn, it is totally worth it. The end results are amazing! At first, when I removed the product from my skin, I thought it had bleached my skin but after a while, my skin returned to its natural color. It works great! Do be careful when using it, which is what I did to avoid irritation and the ghostly bumps. All in all, great product. It left my skin looking flawless! And it does a wonderful job at bleaching your hair.

I LOOOVE THIS PRODUCT. It does sting at first but its not too bad considering that it really does what it says!

the smell is alot better than other hair bleaching products out there, I definitly plan to buy some more. Absolutly love it

this item works on fine hair only ... i had black arm hair .. never waxed or shaved or anything and the bleach worked GREAT !! i'm Spanish so i have very very dark hair and the hair on my arms are really light i love it.. so far its been a week and only a few black hair have come up and a small amount of black roots .. NOW i have really thick side burns that i have done a lot of damage too from shaving .. waxing .. and coloring both with hair color and Bleach .. and it doesn't really get it to a deep light color right now the hair is a kinda dark blonde color .. i have put on Sally Hansen about 3 times and this is the only color i can get it its kinda odd b/c my hair is a dark/black brown so the sideburns are WAY off... the Bleach only works with wispy kinda long hairs that have not been waxed or shaved or colored

The best product I've ever tried! it really lghtened my unwanted hair, and I received my order really quick.

I recommend this product to everyone:)
