OTC numbing cream

Hair Removal Methods Professional Electrolysis
#1

Looking for recommendations for good OTC numbing creams for electrolysis. I’ve read lots of reviews online. Some popular ones seem to be:

Anesten
Dr. Numb
Speed Numb
Numb Skin
LMX

Does anyone have experience with these or other suggestions?

Please check the parallel thread on EMLA replacement.

I use the LMX 5%, ordered online from Amazon.com. It works very well and is a “known” brand. The 5% works much better in my experience than the 4% does; for whatever reason that extra 1% really makes a difference.

I did. Was hoping for more feedback.

Thanks. I’ll make sure to get the 5%.
