I had purchased a mandys facial hair remover for sensitive skin and 3mins into the application it started to burn my skin.i had done a patch prior to the app and its was fine.I washed it of and upon wiping my face it peeled of the top layer of my skin.It was painfull and burning like someone had threw acid on my face.Im now left with hidoeus scars.I called the consumer care line and spoke to Pamela who offered me other products instead of helping me with the current damage and pain.I had sent many emails and phoned many times with no response from them.I have attached my photos.
those piks belong to me. this company knows that there is something wrong with the poroduct which is why they offered me other products to compensate.I declined, but i have being work with the small claims dept here in issueing them with legal docs. Maybe they will jump now.As for my face, i now have dark patches that dnt look good at all.
this is not a joke u guys its serious. we the ones who suffer and u make jokes of it.get a wake up.have a heart.
i need to report abuse on this guy.
btw the company is closed and i tried the walter cres address and no1 seems to answer. i have handed my case to wendy knowles from ecr consumer watch.let see wat happens.its a good idea to have the product tested to.
for your kind information brenda, i had perfectly beautiful skin with not even a pimple.If u can make the effort to look properly then u will see that it is burns not acne.plz dnt truthfully assume things .dnt make the issue worst, rather help us find a solution, if u have the heart.
oh my god ! is that u? and i thought i was bad.
lol! u go girl.
its healing but im left with this terrible dark marks.I did a microdermabrasion ysterday its seems to have lightened it a bit.But im still not happy.Thanks for the concern.
HI MY BOYFRIEND IS ENTERING A BODY BUILDING COMPETITION AND WE USED THE CREAM IT ATE INTO MY FINGER AND HIS CHEST LOOKS LIKE RABIES WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS PRODUCT?
WHO DO WE COMPLAIN TO. HOW DOES HE ENTER NOW AND WHO IS GOING TO SORT THIS OUT
If that is your ###... then this must be your face!
Lovely song! Especially when sung by Westlife!
ROFL... The skin on your inner front arm is the most like your facial skin, is what I meant! The company does exist, they are one of our customers! They are still on holiday! Isn't that convenient...
LOL!
Stealth Pilot - The following appear on the package: Name, weight, Manufacturer name address and telephone number, customer care number, instructions, promotional info and ingredients. Disclaimers are not compulsory in SA. The patch test was done on the inner arm (which is the closest to your facial skin). I suppose I would also get pissed if everyone affiliated me with the problem in some way. My apologies!
JerseyGuy46 - Are you using this product? I sure as hell do not have herpes.Valtrex is used to treat the symptoms of herpes zoster (also known as shingles), a herpes virus infection of the skin; it is also used to treat and prevent genital herpes infections. I do not have any of the above. Just patches of skin missing!
Let me show you what I do have!
I sent an e-mail to the company and they only re-open on Monday the 10th. They are one of our customers!
Thought you were a sheep shager!
Like I said... Never assume anything! Kom laat ons nou die ding uitstruik. Jy is sekerlik 'n onopgevoede koos wat niks beter het om te doen as om homself in ander se smarte te verleker nie. Gaan kry vir jou 'n ordentlike opvoeding en miskien ook sommer 'n bietjie kompassie en dan gesels ons weer. Gaan sit op 'n wortel en roteer so bietjie. Miskien bring dit vir jou vreugde.
"WELL SPOTTED... you know the difference between mandys hair removal cream and calomine lotion...and you worked in the pharmacy"
Never said "I worked in a Pharmacy".
Try this one! And never assume you know anything!
Pity you are about to use the wrong one!
English Ian - It is Calamine Lotion. As I said previously... I work for a pharmaceutical company, so don't you think I would have tried this? No, I do not purchase goods online.
JDH55... 55 must be your age looking at the ### you complain about! Speed traps for truckers! Rather take them off the road. $100 in your bank account? Maybe someone paid you to shut up! A wrecked boat? Maybe you are the one who can not drive...
English Ian... Use the hair remover on your b@lls. Works like a dream on dicks like you!
Pleased to meet you Mandy's Facial hair remover! Go take a hike!
Ian is not the topic of this discussion!
English Ian - You seem to see this as a HUGE joke! Only one problem with you smart @$$ remarks... We do not celebrate haloween in South Africa. You must be a young snotkop with no wife or girlfriend, because if it was your wife or girlfriend, you would not be joking about this. I was not aware that this was a joke forum!
I agree! Can not get hold of the manufacturer. Looks like they are still on holiday. Thinking about sending the product for testing... Something is seriously wrong!
The product is manufactured in South Africa and I live in South Africa. In actual fact, I work for a pharmaceutical company, so I am not an ignorant idiot. The reason I asked if you work for the manufacturer, is due to the fact that your first comment sounds like you are defending the company and no other reason.
There is no reason for the crude language. Take a chill pill!
lol @ Stealth Pilot I just joined this circus today and this is the 10th post I read where someone is accusing you of being an employee, member or a Mormon
No, I do not have hair on my cheeks! The photo's on this page are not me. I have not posted any pics. My face is burned on the upper lip and on my chin!
You have hair on your cheeks?
No, I am not allergic and yes I did the patch test. No, there is no disclaimer on the package. Do you work for Lee-Chem? Sure sounds like it...
I bought Mandy's Facial Hair remover fro sensitive skin on 31/12/2010. About 3 min into the application, my face was burning something terrible. I removed the cream with cotton wool and warm water and my skin came off as well. It was the most excrutiating pain I have felt in a long time and I now have these terrible scars on my face. You can actually see where the applicator applied the cream. I took photo's the next day as well.
