Bikini Line Rash - Girls only please!?

Question

I used a hair removing cream for my bikin line and now have the
worst ugliest itchiest reddest rash - how can I get rid of it?

Answer 1

You need to go to Boots and get some HC45 cream. It is a one percent hydrocortisone and should zap that rash pretty quick. The trouble with hair removing creams is that you are dealing with chemicals which are prone to irritate skin. Deep breath - maybe try waxing instead next time? Short bit of pain, some redness (no rash though), put loads of oil on (any will do, baby oil is fine) and then next day - hey! who knew!! Good luck girl.

Answer 2

Rash Bikini Line

Answer 3

This depends did the rash develop straight after removal if so this could be an illergic reaction to the cream if it happend a few wks after this could be due to the hairs growing back try to avoid gettin any highly perfumed products around the area and any overly hot water try to stick to showers rather than baths! You can get some cream in places like superdrug or boots on the hair removal section which might help to calm it! If still worried visit the doctor

Answer 4

Try exfoliating the area before you use the product again !.
I too get this problem under my arms and bilini line, I got an exfoliation sponge (a small round one from boots, comes in a seethough plastic box) around the skin care section in boots. I also found it help ingrowing hairs after any form of hair removal(if used before hand)and where on the body.
As you have a problem at the moment i would say cover the area in an antibiotic cream like savalon which will reduce the colour and rash for you.

Hope this helps

Answer 5

You can get rid of it by switching the hair removing problem. It should say somewhere on the label or directions of how to deal with the rash. If I were in your situation I would stop using the cream.

Answer 6

Bikini Zone makes a great product for Bikini rash, and it only costs around $6.

Answer 7

try tea tree oil, if it stings then perhaps the rash is some kind of infection, keep the area dry and clean, wash the area when it gathers moisture and reapply the tea tree. if there's no sting sensation when tea tree is applied perhaps the rash is due to allergy, any cream with hidrocortizone will help with the itch but you need to see the doctor for antihistamine(anti-allergy) medication

Answer 8

i use that too and i get rashes. put some ice on it and if the rash doesn't go away the slightest bit, then go to see a doctor. my doctor told me to stop using it but i use it anyway. ice should do the trick though and don't leave the cream on for too long!

Answer 9

Sally Hansen puts out a conditioner cream that is included with some of their hair removing products... I think they sell it as a stand alone product as well. It works great for soothing.
