Summer is a time where I usually wear dresses and short shorts. It's hot outside so it only makes sense, right? Also, I am not as skinny as I once was, but that doesn't stop me from wearing all the pretty clothes. Neither it should stop you - so wear the damn dress/shorts!
And with that, I prefer having smooth legs whenever that's possible. Sometimes I'm in a hurry and I don't have the time or the motivation to do my legs, but when I do - I do get razor bumps and irritated skin.
That's why I was on the lookout for a product that would help with that. I enjoy having smooth legs, but I don't like getting itchy and irritated skin. Even worse are the painful bumps that sometimes form after shaving.
WOX Intensely Hydrating Concentrate After Depilation
The WOX Natural Sensation Intensely Hydrating Concentrate After Depilation a product intended to treat the skin all over the body after hair removal. It gives your skin the nourishment and softness it needs.
That's why when I went to check on Notino for a depilation product that would help with that and I found WOX, I knew I had to try it.
It promises soft, supple skin up to 3 days after application.
- soothes and regenerates the skin
- hydrates the skin
- reduces redness
THE CREAM
It is a light cream that looks thicker when it comes out of the tube. Once it's out of the tube it smells very fresh and clean (like a Nivea cream) and gentle. The scent isn't overpowering and it disappears in a matter of a couple of minutes.
It looks like a thick cream, but it's not. It's actually very refreshing and a tad watery once you start rubbing it in. Because it's a light cream it leaves the skin feeling cool and fresh. It also helps calm down the skin after depilation.
PROS:
+ Inexpensive (less than 5€ but you can get it in their other boxes for free)
+ Leaves a cool, fresh feeling on the skin
+ Calms the irritation after shaving/depilating
+ Smells nicely
+ Leaves the skin feeling soft for up to 3 days
+ I love the design of the box it came in
+ Travel friendly
+ One tiny bit goes a long way
CONS:
- the scent may not be everyone's cup of tea
OVERALL:
I didn't have a lot of hope for this product as I've tried several similar products. But most of them were pretty heavy, thick and didn't do much for me.
Luckily it's not the same with WOX. It leaves my skin cool and refreshed and it helps to calm down the irritation.
That's all I expected from it but it does even more than that - I love how nicely it smells. So clean and nourishing. Like a day at the spa!
Also, a little bit goes a long way so even if it's 5€ for 30ml it is worth it. If you feel it's a tad too expensive, there's good news - you can get it in their hair removal boxes as a gift!
I would say it's worth a shot for everyone who's looking for a nice refreshing and at the same calming cream after skin depilation. I love it!
