New Nair Cool Gel Hair Remover: This Ain't Your Mama's Stinky Depilatory

As the temperatures rise, more skin is bared. And that means, more hair to remove.

Let's be honest, shaving is the quickest and cheapest method for removing unwanted hair. And then there's waxing, a much more expensive way to melt away growth and keep you stubble-free for longer.

Then there's the depilatory. Apply, wait for 5-10 minutes and rinse away. Maybe you watched your mom use Nair or Neet back in the day. More likely, maybe you 'smelled' these depilatories and came rushing into the bathroom to see what the offensive, strong odor was all about.

Sure, Nair, Neet, and all the others, have always had a foul odor, but when the depilatory worked, your legs and underarms felt like silk---so smooth to the touch.

Now, Nair has come out with Cool Gel Hair Remover (7.5 oz. $6.99, at drugstores). The scent is supposed to be a fresh, clean scent, well, you decide. We like the idea of a gel, because it glides on easily, and does feel cool to the touch. And this new Nair is supposed to remove all the hair you don't want, in a matter of minutes.

The good news----it's wonderful to see a product with a hydrating, cooling texture for those hot spring/summer days ahead.

This Nair is a must try.

I tried this Nair Gel hair remover 2 wks ago.The odor is more pleasant than the older Nairs, but the formula still stinks a bit.It works okay but still not prfect.I think a rzor is still the best, cheap remover around.Id give it 2 ot of 4 stars.
