Do You Really Need Depilatories for the Body and Depilatories for the Face?

What to Consider: Body hair is thicker and tougher to remove than facial hair, so waxes and depilatory creams for the body have stronger formulas than do those for the face. If you use a facial depilatory on your body, it won’t work as well, and a body depilatory cream could irritate the skin on your face. The eye area is particularly sensitive, so if you want to remove eyebrow hair, stick with kits designed for that.
Bottom Line: Invest in different hair-removal products.
