I keep seeing an ad on TV for sandpaper which removes hair from legs - please tell me it doesn't work?

[KatyMac]

It looks so easy & safe

It can't be real?

Surely it's a con

I've bought it before from Boots (v cheap)
It works if you have stubble / want the silky feel
It wouldn't de-yeti a yeti

Last time I bought it it was about £1.50 for 3 bits, so worth it even if you decde it's useless

really??

I may be a yeti

Well once you've de yeti-ed in the usual way, use one of these to make your legs really silky. The use it every couple of days to keep them that way

Would it work for the day afetr you've shaved and have a 5 o'clock shadow?

On your legs you mean? Yes I think so!
If you're a man - I don;t know these things but wouldn't recommend using it on your face!

my Mum had something like this yeeaaars ago- called SilkyMits iirc- seemd to work ok

I used to use silkymitts

they do work

That pedi egg advert makes me feel sick, when they empty out the dried foot skin

I have something like the Pedi Egg but made by Microplane. It's not as satisfying as you'd think - I get better results using a raw pumice stone (some have a coating, wtf?) in the shower. And clipping off my toe skin with toenail clippers, mmmm.

It is really fun to empty though.

Do you use each mitt once or can you reuse?

i think they're crap. it takes ages and only does tiny patches at a time. i have better things to do than sandpaper my legs

I want a pedi egg too. Do boak a bit at emptying the skin into the bin though.

I tried them years ago. Never again.

LOL I meant legs

I do have the odd chin hair though

I mind them really good even on my yeti legs, you hve to be gentle or you can "burn" your skin.

Great for knees - no nicks from the razor.

I remember these! Silky Mitts!

IIRC, they weren't bad for a little bit of stubble, and did make your legs feel very soft afterwards. But those were the days when I had enough time to sit around sandpapering.

Lol Boots do one of these for [whispers] facial hair too.
Dont ask me how I know! I cant be the only person to have used them

Silky Mitts that's it!
Ouch to facial hair- that must sting
