Ebanel 5% Lidocaine Numbing Cream, Pain Relief Burn Itch Numb Cream, Maximum Strength Topical Anesthetic with Allantoin, Vitamin E for Local and Anorectal Uses, Hemorrhoid Treatment, 1.35 Oz

I recently purchased the Ebanel 5% Lidocaine Numbing Cream (1.35 Oz) for pain relief during a minor procedure, and it performed impressively. The cream is easy to apply, with a non-greasy, odor-free formula that absorbs quickly. Following the instructions, I applied a thick layer, covered it with plastic wrap, and waited about 25 minutes. It provided strong numbing for roughly an hour, making the process much more comfortable. The addition of allantoin and vitamin E is a nice touch, soothing my skin without irritation. While the small container size might not suit frequent use, it’s perfect for occasional needs like tattoos or minor skin irritations. Great value for the price, and I’d recommend it to anyone needing reliable, fast-acting pain relief

Tattoo artist here! Let me start off by saying this product is actually insane!! BUT only if you apply it correctly. Here’s what i did in order for it to work1.) Shave area, extra area around where you’ll be tattoo’d2.) EXFOLIATE!! Scrub that skin! That’s going to get rid of dead skin cells that you won’t need!!3.) Apply 3-4 hours before appointment. apply to extra area too. don’t just do where the line will kind of be. Go above and beyond in the area you want. I applied 2.5 hours before and wish i had it on longer.4.) DAB IT ON! Don’t rub it in. You want to dab on GLOBS of this stuff.5.) wrap with saran wrap/food wrap. Make sure it’s tight too! Then leave on until your artist says you can take it off6.) I rubbed it in before my artist wiped the stuff off. Just for extra precaution.My personal experience:The yellow is where it started to hurt. About half way through the linework. I put this stuff on between 9:30am-10am. appointment was at 12pm and we maybe started at 12:30pm. I might even put this stuff on before bed, then more on in the morning before the appointment. The sternum is no joke, that was painful. It numbed me though and it was actually crazy! I’m definitely recommending this to my clients!

I Definitely recommend this for tattoos! It was super easy to use, I put it on an hour before my tattoo appointment, then I went to my appointment and didn’t feel a thing! (I was getting my ribs tattooed) The pain relief was amazing I didn’t feel a thing! It lasted about 2 hours before it started to wear off which is amazing because 2 hours of no pain I think yes. It wasn’t greasy at all which I was worried about the greasiness but nope no problem! It went right on like lotion and didn’t have a bad smell. Definitely recommend 10/10

I recently found this on social media and decided to try. I read the reviews and most mentioned that it’s pretty good; I had to try. Here’s a few things to know before buying:1. You must add a thick layer on the area for it to be completely numb2. Use a cling wrap to cover the area to help it marinate3. It doesn’t leave white residue which makes it easy to apply4. Best to apply hours (2-3 hours) before tattoo session5. It works but I feel like it could’ve atleast last for 8 hours.I gave it 4 stars mainly because I wasn’t completely numb base on the amount I applied but it works , it’s a decent size to give you about 3/4 application and the price is good. I applied it 11 am but it wore off before 3pm. So I guess it last for a good time (I had the area wrapped). I did a test run the night before my session so I suggest you guys do too.I will use it for waxing and see how it goes.

I was APPALLED at how very tiny this jar is but it had great reviews so I thought I may as well give it a chance. My heart sunk as I remembered the review that instructed to spread it on "like frosting on a cake." I also thought of all the reviews that suggested two coats. Since I was planning on using it to give myself a Brazilian (sugaring, not waxing), I wasn't taking any chances. I imagined that I would use up most of the tiny bottle, considering that I had already made the attempt twice (without numbing cream) and failed miserably. It even occurred to me that I wouldn't be saving all that much (over salon prices) if I couldn't get it all done on the first try and would need to do the whole thing all over again!It works! It works like a miracle! I spread it on, not thick at all but thick enough to make sure it got to the skin (I did trim first but well, you know). I remembered the reviews that said not to rub it in too much, just leave it on the surface, so I did. I couldn't figure out how to cover it with plastic though so I got a large plastic bag (similar to a garbage bag) and cut out leg holes. I wore that for 20 minutes and went to put on another coat. I was already numb! I couldn't feel a thing but even so, I wanted the 2nd coat, hoping it would reach a deeper level and to make sure I was as numb as possible. Again, I put my plastic bag back on and waited until I washed that off about 15 minutes later and was TOTALLY numb! I'm happy to report that I completed the ENTIRE job and barely used about 1/8 of the bottle! I do have a few strays and a couple of small patches left but that's no fault of the numbing cream, sugaring is hard! I could have easily gotten a new glob of sugar and kept going but I figured that was enough for one day (it's not good to keep going over and over the same area) and I'm not afraid anymore! I wouldn't need to numb the whole area to do the rest anyway, just a few patches; in fact, I likely wouldn't need it at all for the small amount left. I was numb for a good 40 minutes after, when the cooling cream I bought for the occasion started to kick in. Now I'm not saying it was pain-free, it was still painful, but a MILLION times better than my first two attempts!I was originally looking for numbing cream for derma-rolling and I wanted to try it on my face first but once I got my sugaring recipe right, I just couldn't wait to get it done! Sorry to write a book here but I just couldn't be happier! It costs about $80 to have a Brazilian sugaring at the salon and I did my own for less than $5! Sure, I could use a few touch-ups, but I'll be doing that in my own time, by myself, for pennies! I spent about $2.50 for the amount of numbing cream I used, a tiny amount of Finipil Lait 50 (antiseptic cream that cools, soothes, moisturizes, protects against infection, reduces ingrown hairs, and according to some reviewers, slows hair regrowth), a small amount of my sugaring mixture (2 cups sugar, 1/4 cup fake lemon juice, 1/4 cup water- simmered until it turns the color of dark ale), one rubber glove from a pack of 10 pairs from the Dollar Tree, and a large Goodwill bag! I WILL be buying this again!I'll update when I get around to derma-rolling for those of you buying this for that purpose but if your intent is having a Brazilian, do it!UPDATE:I never got around to doing those last few little patches (it wasn't a vanity thing, it was a comfort thing and they didn't bother me) but I've redone the whole thing again today. I wondered if two coats were really necessary, or if the plastic was really necessary, but I didn't want to sit around naked to test it so this time I used a Walmart bag to cover my crotch and put on some big granny-panties to hold it in place under my pajama pants. In some places I was nearly numb after 20 minutes, but in others, not so much. I opted for the 2nd coat and repeated the process. I waited almost 20 mins and was pleasantly numb. Sure, it still hurt like hell, but I was able to get through an ENTIRE self-Brazilian sugaring wax! Since the hairs were shorter and hadn't completely grown in yet (it wasn't as thick), I'm almost bare now! I didn't want to keep going over parts that don't matter much (the upper line that always bleeds) so I still have a few strays there but again, that's because of my sugaring method, not this numbing cream. I will DEFINITELY keep buying this! Now that I've figured out a cheap way to do away with pubic hair, I will NEVER go back to the irritation of dealing with it.See my review for Finipil Lait 50 if you're interested in using that in combination with this.
