hair removal cream aloe vera - #14838

Mira

I am really worried about this reaction I had after using a hair removal cream aloe vera. I thought I picked a good one since I heard the aloe vera in it would help calm my skin. Last week, I was prepping for a beach trip and thought getting rid of some hair would be a good idea. I applied this hair removal cream aloe vera on my legs, following all the instructions perfectly. But like 10 minutes in, I started feeling this crazy burning sensation! I rushed to wash it off, but my skin was all red and irritated. I’ve never had a reaction before with other hair removal creams, and now I’m freaking out. I ended up using some aloe vera gel (like the pure kind, not from the hair removal cream aloe vera) to try to soothe it, but I don’t know if that’s enough.Should I be doing something else? I've read mixed things about how safe these hair removal cream aloe vera options are, and now I'm kind of regretting my decision. Is this normal? Will it go away? Did I damage my skin or something? I feel like I've messed up big time and just need some guidance. Any advice would be super helpful right now!
