With this demand, the market has supplied a slew of hair removal products. From gels to hair removal creams and razors galore, the hair removal products themselves are not lacking...but quality is no guarantee.
See the 11 best hair removal products now.
That's why we've sifted through hundreds of reader reviews to present you with a list of the best hair removal products out there. Readers say these hair removal creams, lasers, razors and more make the hair removal process and results infinitely smoother.
But before diving into this list, be sure to check out the following tips from Venus Scientist Claire Girdler on how to get your closest, smoothest, least irritated shave. Bumps, redness and ingrown hairs — be gone!
Tip 1: Prepare the skin. If your skin gets irritated easily, try applying pre-shave oil to the area before your shaving cream for more protection.
Tip 2: Girdler suggests showering or bathing before you shave to ensure that the hair is hydrated. "Hydration of the hairs makes them significantly softer and easier to cut, which reduces the feel of tug and pull."
Tip 3: Make sure you change your blades frequently (after every five shaves) since blunt blades only require more strokes, which can result in irritated skin.
Tip 4: Pull the skin taut to "minimize any damage to the skin and help the blades cut closer, resulting in a closer shave," says Girdler.
Tip 5: Apply a post-shave treatment like a fragrance-free, soothing moisturizer with aloe or chamomile. Girdler says, "Regular exfoliation and skin moisturizing will help reduce the occurrence of ingrown hairs."
Now you're ready. Keep clicking to find the best hair removal creams and other hair removal products to leave you smooth, silky and hair-free.

My favorite razors now, with moisture strips, are Shick Hydro. I do also like Tend Skin and EOS shaving cream.

I like the razors with moisture strips, no need to buy shaving cream, but they don't last very long

This is a great soap! I use it all the time. It did wounders for my dry and sensitive skin.

My favorite (EOS) is on this list! I'm also not surprised about the Aveeno products who made the list, since they make such great products.

Borrowing your man's razor is definitely not smart; all it does is expose your body to germs and bacteria, no matter how clean he is. Gross. However many of these shaving creams and razors are awesome. Best one for the bikini area is the Noxema razors. I have not been able to find them in stores in years but they are the best EVER.

Right now I use the Gillette Venus Razor and EOS Shave Cream and I am pretty happy with both of them. The EOS shave cream can kind of clog the razor blades though sometimes.
