No Scream Cream is a topical anesthetic containing the highest percentage of Benzocaine available without a prescription! When applied correctly, No Scream Cream will reduce the discomfort of waxing an amazing 80-100%. Apply 25-30 minutes before your appointment. Simply apply the cream in the area to be waxed (safe for all areas!). The cream is water based and will not harm clothing. Do not rub completely in. A white film will remain until the cream is completely absorbed. If any residue remains, your aesthetician should simply wipe with an alcohol wipe. If using a strip wax, it is best if the product is fully absorbed. If using a hard or semi hard wax, the residue will not interfere as long as the product has not been freshly or overly applied. Experiment to find what works best for you!
