Review (5/5): Effective Product
Aside from professional waxing, which is expensive, this is the best product I have found for hair removal below the belt. I have used Nair before, but as several reviews have mentioned, it smells bad. I also don't think it works as well. Here's my advice for best results. Apply the Bare Balm (I use latex gloves rather than the stick) taking care to get to the root of the hair without excessively rubbing the product into your skin. I don't recommend applying the Bare Balm right after showering as the soap can make the balls more sensitive and susceptible to irritation. I start applying the balm in the less sensitive areas (e.g. the taint) and finish in the most sensitive areas (e.g. the balls.) When the time's up, I get into a cool shower and use the glove to gently remove the product. I have used a wash cloth when I have lost the glove, but the glove is easier to use and is more efficient. Afterwards, I rinse with cool water but NEVER wash with soap. I pat dry and apply the Calm Balm. I have had some soreness and irritation with any hair removal I have tried for my balls, including professional waxing. The Calm Balm is the best thing I have tried for this. Even though I'm usually a bit sensitive immediately after the hair removal, the Calm Balm works well and quickly for me.
