Types of depilatory creams

This cream is now popular among girls, so the market offers an impressive range. Veet, Oplica, Eveline, Velvet and some others stand out among famous brands. These manufacturers offer certified, time-tested products. Creams differ in features and the rendered effect.

Creams are divided according to the area of ​​application:

1. armpits;

2. arms and legs;

3. face;

4. bikini area.

These areas on the human body differ primarily in the sensitivity of the skin and the abundance of vegetation, so it is important to choose the right depilatory cream in order to achieve the desired result without irritation and other troubles.

Depilatory products are also divided according to other criteria:

1. concentration of chemicals;

2. moisturizing oil content;

3. amount of vitamins and trace elements.

Creams for each specific zone differ from each other in the amount of chemical components directly responsible for hair removal. For armpits, a maximum concentration of components is required, as is the case for the bikini zone. But the latter takes into account the sensitivity of the skin. Thus, it is desirable to apply the selected cream only for a specific part of the body.

The depilation process is not pleasant and not safe for the skin, so the presence of moisturizing oil provides additional care. It nourishes the skin with vitamins and trace elements, which makes it healthy. Creams often dry the surface, causing unpleasant sensations.

How to determine the "work zone"?

Manufacturers on the label indicate for which zones this or that cream is intended. But when choosing it is also important to take into account the individual characteristics of the skin. There are various names and symbols:

1. universal depilatory cream;

2. cream for sensitive skin;

3. cream for the bikini area.

The latter category is of interest and often sold separately. Universal creams are suitable for legs, hands, armpits and other parts of the body. But for the bikini area it is better to buy a special tool, with the presence of the corresponding designation.

Depilatory creams contain a special substance - calcium thioglycate (calcium salt). Immediately after application, it becomes active and destroys the hair structure. As a result, the hair shaft is weakened and easily detached from the skin. After that, the hair is washed off or removed with a special spatula.All substances are safe for humans. This procedure is compared to shaving because the follicle remains intact.

Cream for intimate areas contains more moisturizing oils. He is less aggressive and cautious. Inexpensive universal remedies with calcium salt content are often offered for legs, arms, and underarms. For the face also sell special creams, which in action are more like moisturizing masks. Based on these designations, you can choose the right cream.

How to choose a cream for depilation of intimate zones?

Means for removing hair in intimate areas are selected carefully. To do this, first of all, you should carefully examine the label of the cream, which indicates the information. Manufacturers write whether a particular tool is used for depilation of intimate areas. If there is no such inscription, then it is likely that the cream will cause itching and irritation in the bikini area.

When choosing, pay attention to the following aspects:

1. the content of the active substance;

2. the presence of moisturizing ingredients;

3. the addition of anti-stress and analgesic components;

4. shelf life.

Through a combination of substances, hair removal is quick and safe. Due to the variety of products, you can easily choose the means for your skin type. In this case there will be no itching or irritation.

Consider the side effects of inflammation, allergies, dermatitis, and even serious illnesses. In addition, if the wrong choice and application of funds appear chemical burns.

The composition of the cream for depilation

When buying a cosmetic for applying to the skin, it is important to check its composition for the presence of hazardous substances. The principle of action is based on the destruction of keratin and weakening of the hair. Chemical components are used for this.

The composition of modern depilation creams contains:

1. potassium or calcium thioglycolate (main hair breaker);

2. sodium hydroxide or calcium (alkali to pre-soften the hair);

3. emulsifiers (wet hair for better action);

4. cetearet-20 (removes sebum).

In addition to the main components in the composition there are substances to increase shelf life, flavors to create a pleasant smell, moisturizing oils and healing agents to accelerate the regeneration of the skin.

Aloe vera and urea leaves are often used as a healing agent. Glycerin, cetearyl alcohol, aliphatic alcohol are added to moisten. Alpha-tocopherol is a vitamin "E", acting as an antioxidant. Used for flavoring - butylphenyl methylpropional, linalool, hexyl cinnamon and others.

Depilation Cream Packaging

The quality of depilation products does not always depend on the cost. Only calcium thioglycolate and sodium hydroxide are responsible for hair removal. Thus, expensive and cheap cream will cope with the tasks equally. A large role is played by additional components that provide a pleasant smell, fast healing and pain relief.

Packaging has the following requirements:

1. strength and density;

2. ease of application using a dispenser;

3. the presence of the composition;

4. indication of the application area and other features.

Universal cream for several zones is taken in a large volume, because it will have to be used often - 1-2 times a week. Bikini area creams are used less frequently, so in this case compact packaging is taken.It is convenient to take small tubes with you on a trip or just to keep in a bag.

When using the tool, it is important to read the instructions and follow the manufacturer's recommendations. Remember about contraindications and possible consequences of the use of depilatory cream.
