Nair Face
Shea Butter Face
Nair is a hair removal product manufactured by Church & Dwight Co., Inc.. The brand name is a possible portmanteau of the words âNoâ and âHair.â Its pronunciation is nearly the same as that of âHairâ. This hair removal works by breaking the bonds of hair so that the hair can easily be wiped away and removed. Nair's slogans are The Less that You Wear, the More you need Nair! and Like Never Before.

Criticisms
If left on too long or re-applied immediately, it can cause skin blistering and leave the skin red for days.
Nair's newest product line, "Pretty" offers several fruit-scented hair removal products, all of which are marketed to girls between the age of 10-15. Controversy has spurred surrounding this line, as many critics have said they are forcing children into adulthood too soon.
