Depilus 13.9% Cream 15g – Hair Growth Inhibitor for Unwanted Facial & Body Hair

Description

Depilus 13.9% Cream (15g) is a topical hair growth inhibitor designed to reduce, slow, and prevent the regrowth of unwanted facial and body hair in both men and women.
It works by targeting hair follicles, reducing the production of keratin and weakening new hair strands over time.
With regular use, Depilus Cream helps achieve smoother, softer skin and minimizes the need for frequent hair removal methods like waxing or shaving.
