Hair removal – especially when it comes to those hard-to-reach places – can be a bit of a mission. Getting a professional to do it for you is an option, but regular trips to a salon usually come with a hefty price tag.
With sunnier days on the horizon, many of us will be thinking about adapting our grooming schedule for showing some skin – whether that means descaling our feet with exfoliating products, or investing in some hair removal options for silky smooth legs.
Of course, nobody should feel pressured to conform to some kind of hairless ideal – all bodies are summer bodies after all.
But if you do want to de-fuzz before the warmer months, hair removal creams are a fuss-free way to get there.
This is our pick of the best hair removal creams for both men and women, taking the stress out of summer hair removal.
Best hair removal cream for hard-to-reach places

The Silverback Kithair
Thankfully no razors are involved meaning no risk of cuts or shaving rashes! Instead, the hair is removed using a Charcoal Hair Removal Cream which works by gently breaking down the keratin in your hair, causing the strands to weaken and dissolve.
All you need to do is wipe it away with the handy tool provided for a smooth finish.
