Can't believe this stuff is still being sold. The other complaints are true. Several years ago it burned me so badly I considered going to the emergency room and was out of work for a few days in pain. Like some of the other commenters I too have scaring from the burns. The people selling this stuff belong in jail. If the situation hadn't been so embarrassing I would have sued.

Epil-Stop scarred my neck for life! It burnt my skin and I have what looks like permanent really red rosacea scarring all over my neck! It's permanently damaged my skin! I cannot believe that they sold such a dangerous product. UNREAL!! Are there no lawsuits against Epil-Stop? Can they sell something that scars you and get away with that? Aren't there laws against this? Stay away, do not use this product, it WILL scar you!!!!

i purchased the product years ago when it was available to pharmacies. the only way this product works is if you have never shaved in your life, and have very fine and thin hair. this will not work on legs or any other place where you shave normally. it also smells adn is very messy. pretty much razor blades, and your usual depilatories will work 1000x better than this product.

It has been a few years now, but I was getting ready for my high school reunion weekend and I wanted my legs to smooth since there was a semi formal dinner and a picnic and I would be wearing shorts, I tried the product and of course it smelled awful and it burned I now have severe scars on my legs, if I wear anything that shows my legs someone will always makes a comment about them asking what I did. I would not recommend this product to anyone. I did not know that this product was still on the market, it should have been recalled years ago.

I once bought a full set of this product, and I swear that [] or a cheaper chemical hair remover works better! I am Caucasian with dark, thick hair. I tried to use it on my legs, armpits, and bikini line. It smells very bad and my body just felt irritated when it was on. I left it on for ten minutes and then even longer and half of the hair did not even come out! After I showered I still had that chemical smell and my skin was very sensitive! This product is just a waste of money so you would be better purchasing something from a drug store for much less - or if you are like me, just shave as it is cheap and reliable.

I bought this product for a really cheap price at a drug store who marked it down and I tried it to remove my facial hair on my chin. After leaving it on my skin I started feeling a burning sensastion and it did smell like a perm. When I wiped the stuff off my face the hairs were still there and the wipe only had a few specs of pieces of hair that it removed. My advice is dont buy this product because it can irritate your face and will not remove all of the hair.

I used this product as well. The infomercial made it look like a great product plus you get a manicure set and robe etc.
I did a patch test on my arm. It didn't bother me, perhaps my arm is less sensetive? I went ahead and placed it on both of my legs and waited the given time. I felt stinging and tingling, it wasn't very painful until I washed it off. Once the warm water touched my skin it made me cringed! Tears came to my eyes and I didn't have anything to place on the burn. I ran cold water over them until the stinging went away. I never realized how many other people have had problems with the product. I figured it was only me. IGIA did give me a refund they kept my s/h though. I had some of my money back and burned. Wish there were a class action lawsuit to show them they need to recall this product!

I brought this product about 8 years ago in a store. Tried it and didn't do anything to remove the hairs on my armpit and it burned like napalm on my skin. I had huge scabs for about a week. I didn't throw the product away because it might come in handy if a burglar breaks into my house. Epi stop is a terrible product for hair removal, but it makes for a nice arsenal for chemical warfare. ;)

I have tried this product in the cucumber-melon scent and it still smelt like a perm and felt like that is what I put on my face. After a couple minutes my face was on fire and no hair was removed.I had burns on my face that was embarrassing. In fact I believe it made my hair grow more in the place where I'm trying to get rid of it. This stuff is no good. They should reimburse me not only the money I paid for this worthless mess but for my pain and suffering as well.

Wow I can't believe I found this!! Its been a while but when I saw this I had to write what happened to me. I had some of my hair come off my both legs from my socks and i always looked like i shaved part of my legs so when i saw this product i thought i would put it on the rest of my legs and at least i wouldn't look like i shaved part of my legs. I put it on exactly how they said to and well after the pain and burning, i now have severe burns on my upper legs and bad burn marks that are on my legs for the rest of my life!!! I'm not kidding when i tell you that the burn marks are bad and never went away!! I TELL EVERYONE TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!!! IT'S NO GOOD!!!

I used this product and followed the directions exactly. I'm one of those people who are chronic direction readers and followers!! Took several tries to get ANY hair to come off, never did get it all...had pretty bad redness afterward. I don't have sensitive skin or any allergies. The hair I have is not heavy. In fact, the hair on my arms is virtually invisible fuzz. Add to all this, they imply that this is something "new", but in fact it's just the same old product you can buy over the counter, like "Nair". Actually I though Nair worked better but always hated the stink. I'll stick to my razor or waxing thanks. I know what to expect and I get the results I want.

I purchased the epil stop product and decided to try it on my upper lip tonight. Well let's just say it is red, burning, and swollen everywhere I applied the roll-on! I followed the directions exactly and regardless I have been in pain all night. I literally had to apply ice on my face to take the painful burning away. I am so upset, I have to go to a wedding in 3 days and I hope to god that this heals enough to show my face!!!Please, do not use this product it's terrible. :(

Fake, Fake, Fake!!! Don't waste your money!! This stuff smells awful and it just doesn't work! I can't believe it is still being sold!

OMG!!! Its really painful and it burns... I applied it to my chin and my upper lip and HAD to take it off within 3 minutes because it was burning too much. I took it off and even use the aloe cream and still burns. I even put tons of cold water and nothing. DON"T BUY THIS! This product should be take off the market. And to top it off, the 800 number is not accepting call at this minute. THIS IS a SCAM!!!

Don't waste your money! It's messy, it's painful, and doesn't remove anything... except maybe the top layer of skin. I thought it was just me; I have really sensitive skin. But when my friends tried it, they got the same results. I'm just glad I didn't buy from the informercial and get sucked into a money scam. I bought it at a flea market if Deltona, FL. One of those "As Seen On TV" stalls...

Wow, it has been a while since I bought this product, but when I found it on the list of scams I couldn't resist writing something about it. LIke everybody else, I saw the infomercial and fell for it. I put it on both my legs, left it according to instructions, and after I took it off it hurt so much that I couldn't even touch my skin! it felt like I had third degree burns! the touch of the sheets in my bed made me cry in pain! I called to get a refund and they told me that the product I had, was recalled because of a bad component. And I am so silly that I fell for it, and asked for the new cream, put it on, and SAME RESULTS! This company should be out of business. They do sell something that not only is not true, but it hurts your body!

I saw the infomercial for this product a few years back and was attracted to the fact that they said that it wasn't as messy as most hair removal, so when I saw it sold at a drugstore a few months later I jumped at the chance to try it. I used it only once and quit because when I sprayed it on my legs, it dripped down my leg and made a mess. I haven't used it since, but I still have it in a closet somewhere; I guess I should cut my losses and throw the thing away.

it stinks to high heaven!!! i left it on for the stated amount of time. it did burn and turn my skin red, but the hair on my legs was still there. it does remove paint, though!! when i sprayed it on i accidentally got some on the bathroom cupboard door..ate the paint right off of it!! maybe they should sell it as a paint stripper not a hair remover

I bought the roll on product to help me with unwanted facial hair. I did it accordingly. Now my face is burnt!!!!! I'm 25 years old and it hurts. I called epil stop and they told me to buy the after wash. I said this would be okay to put on even though my face is raw and burning. She stated yes. It didnt help it made it worse. I'm now seeking legal advice. GIRLS DONT USE THIS PRODUCT I COULD HAVE AFTER EFFECTS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!!!!!
