Smooth Away. You've seen the commercials. Smooth Away is so quick and painless that you can depilate your forearms while you're walking down the street. DOWN THE MOTHER F'ing STREET!
Unfortunately, this is a complete lie. Smooth away is fine-grade sandpaper made to look like a beauty device because it's stuck to a pink plastic ovoid.
If you rub Smooth Away over your skin, you may, eventually, remove the hair there. Of course if you rub anything on there long enough you will also remove the hair...that's why men who wear socks every day for thirty years have bald calves. In fact, if a bird flew past your leg and brushed a feather against it...after about a million years you would be fuzz-free.
Smooth Away claims to be Easy, Safe, and Painless. Does it meet these claims? Well, yes. It is easy to rub a plastic disc over your skin, it seems fairly safe, and it didn't hurt. It also didn't remove any hair. This thing doesn't work worth a damn. Spend your ten bucks on a pack of pink daisy razors, which work as well as anything.
PS. Do you know why Smooth Away is the 'secret of European women'? Because European women have hairy legs.
at the end of my sentence.
I kind of figured this product was too good to be true.
