Review (3/5): First times a charm, but here are some tips
This stuff works great.......The first time. Used it once with great results, used it twice it was mildly irritating, used it a third time, i had a scar on my balls for two weeks, and it burned like hell. Now I probably used this stuff way to close together, as in I didn't wait two months or anything for a second go at it, right when the stubble was coming back in, well big mistake. Don't over use this stuff it will cause more pain than it is worth. No it's not perfect but it gets the job done if your tired of constantly buying razors and what have you. Now I did try the Magic Shave Powder (got mine at walgreens for 3.50) and make a paste out of it with water and that worked ten times better than this stuff and no burn, no hurt. But if you insist on using this here are my tips that I wish would have been outlined when I bought it:
1. USE ONLY AS DIRECTED- We men tend to not need directions, well you have been warned.
2. DO NOT GET IN A HOT SHOWER WITH THIS ON- I prefer lukewarm water over it then let it dry and settle a little down there before i go hoping in the shower, smells bad but its worth the wait, the soap and hot water combines for a rather painful experience
3. PAT DRY- when you finish "groping yourself" as the package says, pat your balls dry, DO NOT I repeat DO NOT just go to town with your towel down there.
4. AQUAPHOR- Yes, the tried and true method of helping a tattoo heal with aquaphor can be applied to using this stuff. It comes with the balm, and that does not work one bit, get some aquaphor from the drug store, and liberally apply it all over where you placed the balls balm, un-scented, and easy on all skin types, your balls will thank you for it, using other moisturizers or lotions or after shaves has proven disastrous for me, stick with the aquaphor, and as soon as you pat those balls dry apply it instantly, it helps a ton, let that dry off and then get your shower.
Again, it's not perfect but if your wasting money on razors and all that and dont have excessively sensitive skin this stuff is great. If your too afraid by the reviews but still looking for an alternative check out the Magic Shave Powder by Soft-Sheen-Carson, it's like 3.50 at walgreens and works just as well, for a quarter of the price and without the burn, oh and it only takes 5-10 minutes to work
