Hello,
Wipe off the excess gently, rinse it all off in the shower, apply a
cold washcloth and combine water with baking soda to neutralize the acid burn, rinse, gently dry, and apply “acid mantel cream” which will rebalance your pH and/or a petroleum-based ointment like
Neosporin (or Vaseline).
Apply a 1 percent
hydrocortisone ointment to calm the
redness, "Nair should NEVER be used close to your genitals.
It's fine around the bikini line area (right where your underwear or bikini would end and hair may show).
But otherwise: keep it away!
The main ingredients in Nair (and products like it) are calcium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide - otherwise known as lime and lye! They work by breaking down the structural bonds holding your hair together - and your skin.
Drink a lot of water. You’ll pee more, but it'll dilute your urine which will make it burn the irritated skinless.
Next time opt for a wax. It's somewhat painful at the moment (until you get them frequently enough) but otherwise, it's no pain at all!
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
