Review: Byly Depil Hair Removal (with Thermal Water)

Byly Depil Hair Removal (2 strips)
This week review is on Byly Depil Hair Removal. This is a sample given in the goodies bag when I attended the EzyForum Event during April this year. 

My mum became my product guinea pig again because of her hairy leg. :p Overall, this hair removal strip can remove hair cleanly and effectively. The re-growth period lasted very long. 2 weeks from using the strip, hairs have not been seen growing. But, using this hair removal strip is quite painful if you have hairy legs. :D

Byly Depil (with Thermal Water) Summary
The latest treatment from laboratorios Byly is especially suitable for people with delicate skin because it prevents irritation and calms the skin after hair removal. 

The dermo-elastic formula adapts itself to the skin's contours and sticks to the hair itself, eliminating even the shortest hairs. 

Thermal water is rich in calcium and magnesium, which is well known for its therapeutic properties. 
Instruction on how to use the strip.

How to use Byly Depil (with Thermal Water)?
3 steps:
  1. Refresh: Before hair removal, give skin a gentle massage with the pre-depilation wipe. 
  2. Remove hair: Hold strip between hands for few seconds to condition the wax. Separate the strips slowly and apply them to the areas to be depilated, smoothing the strip down in the direction of hair growth. Then immediately hold the skin taught and pull the strip off quickly against the direction of hair growth. 
  3. Calm and hydrate: After hair removal, give skin gentle massage with the after depilation wipes.

My Review
This is a sample given in the goodies bag when I attended the EzyForum Event during April this year. 

My mum became my product guinea pig again because of her hairy leg. :p 


The sample pack consist of 4 strips, 1 pre-waxing tissue and 1 post-waxing tissue. 
What is inside the sample pack.
The pre-waxing tissue just feels like an ordinary wet tissue. After cleaning, it feels cooling and hair can be seen easily.

How leg look like after pre-waxing.
The strip can be pull apart easily. But once apart, the strip is very sticky. And the application process is very messy as it stick all over my hands. 
Strips
But the strip can cleanly pull hair off the leg. The area just being pull off will be very sticky and I can see all the pull off hairs on the strips.

Pull off hair on the strips
To remove all the hair from my mum's 1 leg, 2 strips is needed. And I actually need to stick on and pull off several times (around 4 times per strips), to cleanly remove all the hairs from 1 leg. But one thing I like about it is that 1 strip can be re-stick on and pull off a lot of times, not just one time. :)

Ah ha! You must be thinking, "eee. That must be painful!" /shock And yes, I asked my mum and she say of course it is painful. She say it feels like ants bite. 

Another thing I discovered is that you may need another person to help you with the removal of hair, otherwise, it will not be clean. :p

And yes, by the time I'm done with both my mum's leg, my hand is very very sticky all over. :(

The post-waxing tissue came handy. The tissue contain oil, so it is oily. The post-waxing tissue is able to clean off the sticky wax left on the leg. But it takes very long time to dry. So my mum use a normal tissue to wipe off after a while. 
Post-waxing pack.
How the post-waxing tissue looks like.
Hairs are cleanly removed from my mum's leg and the leg feels smooth too. No poky feeling at all.

And one thing my mum notice is the re-growth period of the hairs on her legs. Its 2 weeks from using this hair removal strip and still legs are smooth with no sign of hairs re-growth. =D>
Before Using.
After using.
As compare, previously using hair removal cream, legs not as smooth after removal, legs started feeling poky and hair re-growth only after a short 3 days from removal. 

Overall, this hair removal strip can remove hair cleanly and effectively. The re-growth period lasted very long. 2 weeks from using the strip, hairs have not been seen growing. But, using this hair removal strip is quite painful if you have hairy legs. But 1 strip can be stick on and pull off a lot of times (re-useable). /XD

Where to buy it?
Byly Depil Hair Removal can be bought at selected BHG, Beauty Language, Sasa and Watsons Stores from S$10.90 to S$13.90. Comes in 12 strips per box.

My Review
It was a retail size free sample which is worth redeeming. Therefore I redeemed and decide who to use it later. Reason being I have no unwanted hairs to removed from top to bottom. :D So how? So my mum became my guinea pig due to her hairy leg. Just right for me to test and review this Veet Suprem' Essence Hair Removal Cream. 

The box came with a 90ml tube of Hair Removal Cream and 1 perfect touch spatula. 
A 90ml tube of cream and a spatula

The cream is white in color and produce a flowery fragrance when apply onto the skin. According to the user of this product, which is my mum, it is very easy to apply. I too helped her apply (hehe...I wanted to play with it too. /wahaha) and find it easy too. 

To begin with, lets take a look at my mum's hairy leg. These hairs have been with her for a long time already and can be very stubborn. 
Mum's Left Leg Before Use

Both of us have a fun time applying the hair removal cream onto my mum's leg. We basically leave it for 5 minutes as my mum claim her hair is very stubborn. 
When applied with the cream.

After 5 minutes, we used the spatula to test a part of it and its ready to be removed. Again both of us have a fun time using the spatula to remove the cream and hairs. But it look really horrible when u see the cream and hair that has been removed on the tissues.

All cream + hair removed using the spatula after 5 minutes. (Before wash)

My mum went on to wash her leg off. She claim that its easily wash off and she feels like she is washing off hair conditional or non-soapy shampoo. 

After drying her leg, we still notice about 5% of those very short and stubborn hair not removed. :-? So my mum go on to apply the cream the second time, wait for 5 minutes, removed and wash it off. This time round, all hairs removed and her leg feels so smooth and nice to touch. 
After wash and dry.

Overall, my mum is satisfied with this product. Although she will need to apply the second time to remove those shorter and more stubborn hairs, still 95% of the hairs are still removed and her leg feels so smooth to touch. What's more she love it that its easy to apply and no more cuts and rough skin after removal of hair anymore. :D

However, one thing she don't like is that a few days later when new hair is born again, it feels so porky to touch. But I guess she will have to be more diligent to maintain the smooth and hairless leg. /XD

Where to buy it?
Veet Suprem' Essence Hair Removal Cream is sold at Watsons (saw it at S$11.50) and Guardian.
