Does this work? Veet facial hair remover

This is rather embarrassing to admit to the internet but because I have incredibly dark hair to the point it's practically black it means I have rather prominent facial hair. Now this is certainly a rather embarrassing thing for a teenage girl with her face being pretty much her only attractive feature. I have spent around 4 years trying to find cost effective ways of getting rid of this hair and I must tell you if you have an issue similar to mine NEVER shave it. It's a bastard when it grows again because the blunt edge of the hair makes it look darker against your skin especially when you're pale. 

Anyway onto the product... I picked up this hair remover for around 3 pounds in Morrison's (yes I shop there a lot) and saw it was specially formulated for the face and sensitive skin. Now I have tried regular hair remover and I always found it left me with a red and sore upper lip so I hoped this wouldn't do the same.

I found the application method using the spatula to be pretty pointless and fiddly. It left some areas with thinner coverage or absolutely no cream on it at all. I gave up using it after the first try and just decided to apply it with my fingers.

The product for me worked in the 5 minutes which I found quite good as I have very dark thick hair and thought it would take the longer time listed on the box.

Since picking up the box in Morrison's I haven't needed to search for it but I haven't noticed it in other shops. So keep your eyes peeled for it if you need it.
