No worries it happens to me too. You either left it on too long, or your skin is too sensitve for the lotion, try getting the veet lotion that is for sensitve skin. It will go way, but dont use any soaps. Using a soap right after you had washed the veet off could of caused the dots as well. Only use warm water for the next 24 hours after using this lotion. And dont use any creams it will only make it sting and worsen the look. It will go way with in 48 hours.

i used it when i was afraid to shave about 2 years ago, it was wonderfullllll, but my older sister used it and she said it didn't work right, i guess it depends on the type of skin, and it does stink up the bathroom at first, but give it a try, it may work, and when it does you dont even have to use the razor, just use the cream (or foam, but it is manditory) and wash it off with luke warm water after 3-5 minutes, WITH A RAGGGG!!!

I have used this before myself and it happened to me as well. The dots and burning will stop and disappear. Needless to say I got a great shave with it but won't use it again also nair does the same thing.

No that's not normal. Did you wash your legs of real well with cool water? You might want to try Aveeno products. They have a gentle cleansing product and a cream for irritated skin.

It sounds like your skin is very sensitive. Use some hydro-cortisone cream all over your legs. This will also relieve the itching. I would say use it for a couple of days. If you also use a moisturizer, make sure it is fragrance free.

If you ask me, it sounds like an allergic reaction or something like that. I can't imagine veet being so popular if everyone who uses it experiences burning and sores afterwards for half a day.

Wash them and put a good lotion on them. It did that to my sister's legs too. It went away.

Wash your legs with cool water and soap. Rinse very well. You could be allergic to it.

I don't think that's normal....Did it at least take your hair off??? Try putting some lotion on your legs.
