Barium Sulphide (Hair Removal)

Barium Sulphide is also very popular in the cosmetics industry. Barium Sulphide is one of the active and most used ingredients used in depilatory creams to remove hair. It is normally used in conjunction with other active ingredients for hair removal. The use of this chemical compound has been around for more than 90 years! Wash the area in which you want to remove the body hair. Use a mild cleanser and warm water then pat it dry. If you are using a Barium Sulphide product for the first time, you need to apply it on a small patch of skin.

This helps to determine your skin’s sensitivity and reaction to the chemical compound. Note that you need to wait for a few hours before you can proceed with the application process in case you notice that it’s safe to use it. You need to apply the cream over the skin and wait for the chemical agent in this compound to start working. Once the hairs’ protein structure dissolves, you can easily remove the hair.
