Update! Veet Infini'Silk 7th Treatment

*Updated on 6/23/15- I want to come in here and do another update as many Google hits come to this page looking for reviews. I have had the Veet Infini'Silk for over a year now. I want to state that I did see pretty good results with use for the first 9 months. I did stop using the device for 3 months and saw my hair return to its normal growth rate that it did before I got the product. I would NOT say it gives permanent results as promised. Where I did see a reduction in hair growth on my legs while using the Infini'Silk, I never saw any reduction in the armpit area. At this point, I would probably not recommend purchasing the Veet Infini'Silk. For the current selling price, it really isn't worth it for the small results you receive.


First, I want to say thank you to everyone who entered the Veet Infini'Silk giveaway. With over 5,000 entries, it was the most successful giveaway I have hosted on Theresa's Mixed Nuts yet! Congratulations to Sonya M. who was randomly selected as the winner! Your prize has been shipped. I hope you enjoy!

As promised, I want to do a quick update on my experience with the Veet Infini'Silk so far. If you haven't caught my previous reviews, you can find them HERE and HERE. 



I have recently completed treatment 7, and as expected, am seeing further reduction in hair growth. I am roughly at 3 days between shaves, and at this point, I am only feeling stubble in areas where hair tends to grow a little faster, like the ankles and inner sides of my calves. While that is growing in every 2 to 3 days, the growth area has really thinned out and I am seeing the 70% in hair reduction that was stated on the Veet Infini'Silk owners manual. For the past month, I have not seen or felt any any hair growth on the back of my calves, upper legs, and knee area, though I am still swiping my razor over that area anyway every 3 days when I need to shave the other areas that still have hair growth. With continued use, I am confident I am going to achieve the desired results that Veet says I should receive by using the Infini'Silk.



The Veet Infini'Silk is currently available to U.S. residents and can be purchased on the Veet Infini'Silk website. You can also purchase Veet Infini'Silk Light-Based IPL Hair Removal System on Amazon  


I didn't put together a holiday gift guide this year, but if I did, I would definitely recommend the Veet Infini'Silk. It would make a wonderful holiday gift for your loved one, or even yourself!

AFTER USING THE VEET INFINI'SILK FOR MORE THAN A YEAR, PLEASE READ MY FINAL UPDATE HERE!

Back at the end of June I introduced you all to a new hair removal system from Veet called Infini'Silk. (You can read my first impressions HERE.)

Veet Infini'Silk


To catch my new readers up to speed, the Veet Infini'Silk is an IPL (Intense Pulse Light) hair removal device that you use in the comfort of your own home. The Infini'Silk is used for permanent body hair removal since the light pulse stops hair growth at the root. One should start to see results in as little as 4 to 5 treatments. I have just finished my 5th treatment, and wanted to share my results up to this point.

I descend from Italian heritage, so my hair grows fast, dark and thick. If I shave my legs in the morning, by late afternoon I feel stubble coming along again. By the 4th treatment my leg hair was growing in at the same rate, but it seemed to be coming in much thinner. After the 5th treatment, I am going 3 days before the stubble starts to reappear. I am also using the Infini'Silk on my underarms. However, I am not seeing as good of results as my legs. It is still growing in at the same rate, BUT it is growing in thinner. I think with a few more treatments, I'll have the same results as I am getting with my legs. I am using the device on level 5, which is the highest setting.

Pro List for Veet Infini'Silk:

• Easy to use and store.
• Lightweight. Is designed well, so it is comfortable to hold.
• It seems to be working as promised.
• Pain free.
• Reasonably priced. The Infini'Silk has a SRP of $249.99, which may seem like a lot up front, but when you factor in what you are saving on salon visits, waxing kits or razors, over time this product will pay for itself. It also comes with a 60 day money back guarantee.
•FDA approved. 

Con List for Veet Infini'Silk:

• Time consuming. It takes me about 20 minutes to treat my legs. (However, treatments are spaced 2 weeks apart for 1 through 5, then every 4 weeks after that.)
• Only works on a hair free surface, so you still have to shave before using it.
• Difficult to use on knees. The entire light strip needs to cover skin, so on bony knees you have to press hard to get the light to go off.
• Not for use on facial hair.
• Not safe for people who have dark skin tones.


• I have not personally experienced any of these side effects, but using the Infini'Silk can result in minor skin discomfort, skin redness, increased skin sensitivity, skin wounds or burns, scarring, pigment changes, excessive redness or swelling, infection, or bruising.

Here's a Vine video I made showing a quick demo of Veet Infini'Silk:

My treatments are now supposed to be planned for 4 weeks apart, so I am hoping to be hair free by Christmas. By my calculations, this is a 6 month treatment process. I will post up another update when I have completed a few more treatments, so be sure to check back on future results!

If you would like to learn more about the Veet Infini'Silk, or if you would like to purchase one of your own, they are now available on the Infini'Silk website. You can also purchase Veet Infini'Silk Light-Based IPL Hair Removal System on Amazon

Go Hair Free With Veet Infini'Silk

AFTER USING THE VEET INFINI'SILK FOR MORE THAN A YEAR, PLEASE READ MY FINAL UPDATE HERE!

Even though I live for summer, there are two things that I hate about the warmer months. The first is bug bites, and the second is having to shave every day. Both are pesky nuisances, but I think I have found a remedy for one of those problems. Going hair free without hassle of using razors, creams or waxing is about to get easier than ever. And the best part is, the results are permanent! Introducing Veet Infini'Silk.

Veet Infini'Silk

Veet has been well known for their hair removal products, such as their creams, wax and bleach. Now they are expanding their product range by moving into the at home IPL (intense pulse light) hair removal industry. The desired result of using the Veet Infini'Silk is to permanently remove hair over time.

Veet Infini'Silk

The Veet Infini'Silk comes boxed with one unit and a power cord. Simply connect the power cord to the unit, plug it in, and the device is ready to use. There is a power button on the upper part, backside of the device. Start by setting it to the lowest setting (1) then work your way up to the setting that you feel most comfortable using.


Press the end with the light firmly against the area you wish to go hair free on. Squeeze the unit and a light pulse will go off. Slide the unit to the next section and repeat until you have the entire area complete.

Veet Infni'Silk

I started with level 1 and didn't feel any stinging or burning. Actually, I went all the way to 5 and didn't feel anything at all when the light went off on my leg area. At level 5 I did feel a little warmth when I used it on my underarms, but it was in no way painful or uncomfortable.


I have used the Veet Infini'Silk for 2 treatments so far. Treatments 1-4 are to be done 2 weeks apart, 5-7 should be around 4 weeks apart, and 8+ is as needed, until desired results are achieved.

Typically, you won't see any results until about the 5th treatment. The efficiency of hair removal varies from person to person, according to body area, hair, and how the Infini'Silk is used.

So far, I like that the Veet Infini'Silk is easy to use, light weight, and easy to store when not in use. I also like being able to use it in the comfort of my own home as well. While I haven't seen any results yet, I will be updating the progress of my hair removal over the next few months. I will also be including an update as to where you can purchase your own Veet Infini'Silk, so stay tuned!
