Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Lord help me! Several weeks ago, I saw this "no-shaving" hack on Tiktok and decided to try it. I know, "that sounds like a great plan April. You're a glutton for punishment aren't you?" Well, probably but that's another story entirely. I'm allergic to both Veet & Nair so after those experiences I was hesitant and thinking, yep I'm gonna mess myself up. So I bought the can of Magic Shaving Powder and I waited for what felt like half my lifetime for it to arrive at my door. It finally did! Then I unceremoniously shoved it into a box and moved. While unpacking one of the never ending box piles from hell, I happened back upon this sweet little gold-ish gem. So as I was assertively told in the videos I didn't shave my legs for a few days. Maybe a week. Who's counting when you have an excuse this good? It's Friday and I'm attending a wedding shower tomorrow so I though, what better time to see how badly I can break out in hives? "Gosh, April, you are really good at timing?" I know, because that's what I said. Just now. So I read the back of the bottle? Tube? Cylindrical canister. On which bold white letters on a black back ground proceeded to give me the bad news first. Cool, just the way I like it. Do not use this product with a razor. I didn't intend to. That's the whole point. Follow all directions carefully. Maybe, we will see. Only to be used to remove facial hair. Ha! Have you seen ladies leg hairs? Even the dog didn't wanna cuddle me because a Brillo pad would be more comfy. Test product before use. Go big or go home right? Amongst the directions it told me to remoisten the powder if it gets dry. We all hate that word and just for using the M word I'm not doing it. Plus Tiktok told me too, and we can totally trust Tiktok. After removing the paint can-style lid (thanks for that Magic) I did follow the directions, sort of, mostly, -ish, for mixing the powder into paste which btw, may be the most physically taxing thing I have done all night. I mean holy smokes, Batman. I've never in my life seen a powder so difficult to get wet. What's in this crap? Latex? I hope not. I'm allergic to that too but I'm too tired of reading this can to find out. Eventually, it finally decided to become a paste. Cool. I then proceeded to smear it all over my legs with my fingers, which I quickly regretted, washed my hands and grabbed a spoon. I throughly slathered my off-white legs until they became, snow white instead. But I'm me, so I didn't stop there. I coated all of the areas in which I didn't want hair anymore. Yep, ALL of them. I'm a girl, so.... that's pretty much from the nose down. Leave my eyebrows alone. I'm keeping those. I saw what happened to my daughter when she found mommy's trimmer. I sat semi-patiently on my couch waiting for it to dry. Okay, not patiently at all but I filled my time with, well Tiktok videos. Should've made one. Dammit. Missed opportunity. I waited for the snow goo to dry and become powdery again. I discovered I had made a massive mess on my couch, but I would deal with the aftermath later as I always do. Procrastination is my greatest skill. I snuck half naked to the kitchen hoping my neighbors aren't peeking at the new girl who currently looks like she may be the walking dead to my bathroom and ran the hot water. I got the rag wet, like Tiktok told me to then I proceeded to cautiously wipe away the dried cake batter of death from my skin. Slowly. Methodically even. To my shock and actual dismay, it took the hair off. Gone. Just like that. I laughed, flipped my razor off and finished removing the toxic smelling stuff away from my skin. As if I was not shocked enough that it actually worked, my skin was not red or irritated. Not even those.... ahem.... tender, parts. Color me impressed. Well Magic Shaving Powder people, I understand the name now. Proper branding. I like that. Oh and btw guys, this stuff is like $2 a can at Walmart. You're welcome.
