Plus I&#8217;m allergic to something in Nesquik, which is why I don&#8217;t drink it, and Nair gave me SEVERE chemical burns on my underarms (but not on my legs ????). So while I&#8217;ve never had the cinematic throat-clutching &quot;Oh god, allergies!&quot; reaction of TV and movies, I do have sensitivities to some products.

If you find your skin reacting to a product in a way that it&#8217;s not supposed to&#8230; STOP USING THE PRODUCT.<\/p>\n<p>Seriously.
