Q: Can I use this for legs,arms,underarms and for the top lip?
submitted by Sher21 - 3 years ago
A: Magic Shaving Powder is used only to remove facial hair
submitted bySoft Sheen Team - 3 years agoBrand expertA: No true. I use for under arms and legs and works perfectly fine. In fact, hair stays away alot longer with this product.

Q: How long does it take for the hair to grow back? Any answers would be helpful but I’m looking to use it on my underarms and legs, so if you’ve tried it there, please definitely let me know :)
submitted by Makeupartist123 - 4 years ago
A: According to the American website, it's 'Up to 4 days'. Hope that helps! :)

i really like this!! i feel like i saw super mixed reviews of people loving it or hating and i thought i’d give it a try. it’s smell isn’t THAT bad. like not great but not unbearable, at least to me. also i have extremely sensitive skin, plus eczema so i thought to try this and it honestly works super well! i haven’t showed any signs of irritation so far either. i would really recommend even if you’re on the fence it’s worth a shot
Was initially impressed, But....

Purchased the powder and when I used it I followed the instructions to the "letter". After thr application and removal I was impressed, since it was my first time using it. The results said it would last 4 days. Well, NOT TRUE. When I woke up the next day I noticed stubble. I also noticed after the second use (with the 48 hour waiting period) the product DIDN'T work. Then I noticed that I had MORE hair in the areas of use (full chin and lip) that there was MORE hair than before I started. I purchased the creme the other day and applied it to my problem areas. Lets see what these results will be. Otherwise I can see myself spending an astronomical amount of money for laser treatments.

Possibly user error but the product only worked in some areas. Not sure if it was the consistency of mixture or not. I’d possibly give it another shot but there’s other products I know work.

Excellent product. I’ve used it all of my adult life (father and older brother used it too). Gentle on my skin and the smoothness is there days. The only time I’ve ever any issues is with what seems to be batch consistency. I am no expert, but some cans mix well, others take longer for the water to “take.” They still perform great; just takes a little longer to mix. Tell me, Magic Shave, was there a formula change at one point? Inquiring minds would love to know : )

A more accurate score would be a 3.6 rather than 4 whole stars. I bought this exact can of shaving powder a couple of weeks ago and while it did its job I do have some complaints. 1.) the powder doesn't mix with water as well as it should 2.) the cream/paste substance that forms once it does eventually mix dries up too easily and 3.) once I cleaned myself off and was satisfied with the hair that came off I experienced a mild burning sensation and the area had turned slightly red. The burning and redness went away soon enough but it was an unpleasant surprise.

I tried this powder last night on my legs and it works pretty well. My skin is fairly sensitive—even on my legs—so I wanted to try it to avoid razor bumps. I needed to use a lot of the product to cover my legs, the fragrance is strong (not as bad as Nair, but strong), and it took a bit to complete the process. While it didn’t work perfectly, it worked great on my knees and around the ankles. I’ll keep using this product for those smaller areas instead of all over my legs. The price point is great for effective hair removal. I just need to be more careful with my razor on the areas I don’t use the powder.
Its a no for me

I know it says it's for men but there are millions of women everywhere who use this and it works great! You can find the proof all over the internet on places like tic toc or YouTube. Just to name a couple. I wish there was an actual female line of this product with a feminine smell. This product works better than anything else I've tried and women are just going to keep using it anyway. So please come out with a female line of this!

I got this a few months back and only used it twice due to it’s awful smell. I could get past it if it was a really great product, but it’s just not honestly. You need to stink up your bathroom, rub it on and make sure not to get it anywhere else in the 7 minutes it takes to dry, wipe it off but half of the hair hasn’t even broken off. It’s almost the same as actually shaving, except you don’t get razor bumps and ingrown hairs, but with the right products you could avoid those anyways. The difference between this and shaving is that shaving gets every hair sliced off right to the skin, but this often only breaks the hair in half and you can still see a little bit of it poking out. I would recommend waxing, it’s faster, doesn’t smell bad, prevents razor bumps and ingrown hairs, and it pulls the hair straight from the root so it takes much longer to grow back. using shaving powder, i could see the hair growth within a day, and even immediately after shaving it wasn’t quite entirely smooth. Just stick to a razor or switch to waxing.
