Magic Shaving Powder?

Ok, I posted this in the bikini wax thread, but I think it might get lost in there, so I decided to make it a topic.
Anyhow, lots of ladies on WC have been raving about this stuff

to do the job instead of waxing. (here's the thread)
Has anyone here ever used it? I want to try it, but I have very sensitive skin.

Never used it.. never heard of it... but I looked on drugstore.com and found this - hope it's helpful.

I've been using that stuff for about 10 years. I've used it for smaller areas (ie: moustache, eyebrows) and it works very well, but dont keep it on more than 2-3 minutes
because it can burn and leave a red mark. I didnt find it worked well for bikini area or other sensive areas.

I guess it's kinda like nair. A friend of mine showed me the thread on weddingchannel.com, and it seems as though many of the ladies are loving the results. I thought maybe some girls from here have used it, but I guess not.

Hi Sonia...I've used this product for 10 years. Its a powder and you mix some powder (1/2 teaspoon)
onto the palm of your hand and mix it with a few drops of warm water to make it pasty, then you apply it
wherever you need hair removal...I use it for for the upper lip and eyebrow. You need to use a little more
for areas...you have to wait about two minutes while it kind of dries up then wipe it off with a warm damp
tissue or cotton ball.
