Formula 103 Mild/Regular is for men with a lighter beard and/or with very sensitive skin.   Similar to the Extra Strength version of the product but milder, it even further reduces the chance of skin irritation. In the past, Treasured Locks has not recommended depilatories to prevent the razor bumps that plague so many black men. Old-fashioned depilatories are so hard on the skin that they often cause more problems than they prevent. We have offered other solutions that have helped many men use a razor again or for the first time. However, with the discovery of Formula 103, we can offer a razorless alternative to those men who want to use a chemical shave system, for whatever reason.

Formula 103 is a depilatory developed especially for the shaving needs of African-American men. Formula 103 is formulated to be soothing and healing for men's skin. Formula 103 Facial Hair Removal Cream softens the hair and dissolves it without damaging the root. It also moisturizes the skin so much that you will not even need an after shave. Consequently, the formation of bumps is prevented. Perfected after six years of intensive laboratory research and testing in five countries, Formula 103® Facial Hair Removal Cream can remove even the coarsest hair. Formula 103 has a unique herbal fragrance.

Formula 103 Features:
  • Formulated especially for black men
  • Helps eliminate razor bumps
  • Formulated with Herbazine®
  • Contains a unique anti-irritant

Key Ingredients:
  • Aloe Vera Gel
  • Cocoa Butter
  • Jojoba Oil
  • Herbazine

MIRACLE!!!
By Gbemisola from Pikesville, Maryland on January 4, 2012
When i saw the reviews for this product online, i was one of the doubting Thomas and i had thought this was one the rest of them. I had tried several facial hair removal cream but they did not work for me at all. So i reluctantly purchased this cream hoping to get little or no result. To my amazement, the cream removed my coarse chin hair in less than 10 minutes and the dark bumps on my face disappeared. This is indeed a MIRACLE product. It didn't burn me or damage my skin. I would highly recommend this product for an end to shaving problems.
Pros:
Works like magic
Removes the hair in a short time
Does not have an offensive smell
Leaves the skin feeling fresh
Cons:
It is too expensive for the size

I would recommend this item to a friend.

AWESOME!
By BP from St Thomas VI on June 29, 2011
My face was a mess. Razor bumps after every shave. I tried everything then discovered Formula 103. The first day I used it I needed to shave and had the worse razor bumps. The patch test was a little scary. Burned a little, but when I used it all over my face, I was amazed with the "stuff" that came off my face. Lets just say the stuff inside the bumps wasn't pretty. I would recommend using the After Shave after the Facial Hair Removal Cream. I went back online and ordered 3 more each of Removal Cream and Aftershave.
Pros:
Slight burning on patch test
Cons:
The tube is too small. Make in larger size.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Not For Men With Ultra Sensitive Skin
By Chanel from Copley, Ohio on October 10, 2011
I purchased this for my boyfriend in hopes that it would solve his troubles with unsightly, painful razor bumps from shaving his facial hair. Unfortunately, application of the formula resulted in first-degree burns covering his face. For weeks, he grimaced whenever he ate, spoke or made any expression that required movement of facial muscles. I was riddled with guilt and post this to caution those with skin that is very sensitive to chemicals.
Pros:
Removed Hair
Cons:
Caused First-Degree Burns with Weeks of Pain

Merchant Response:
A small percentage of people are sensitive to just about any product. When it comes to depilatories, there are people who simply cannot use any depilatory. Formula 103 is well tolerated by most people. But, since there is a percentage of people who will not be able to use it, we recommend a patch test before the product is applied to a large area.

formula 103 facial hair removal
By James Bond from Harrisburg,Pa. on April 26, 2011
formula 103 has proven to be a very satisfying experience in the removal of facial hair, it is very delicate on my face and it does not cause facial burns to the skin, it has been a long journey for me but the wait was well worth it in finding such a product as formula 103.
Pros:
sensitive to the skin
Cons:
only comes in a 3 ounce size

I would recommend this item to a friend.

It Kind of Works
By Rickie from Long Beach, Ca. on April 13, 2011
Let me start off by saying that I was very excited to come across this product. I suffer from razor bumps and I've tried nearly everything. From laser hair remover (which didn't work for me), magic shave, bump fighter razors (i still got bumps), fusion razors, tend skin, bump stopper, and probably a couple of things that I forgot about. I actually ordered the Mild cream, the Extra Strength cream, and the Razor Bump serum. The first one I tried was the sensitive skin or Mild cream. I put it on for the recommended amount of time and I wiped it off. I noticed that there were still patches of hair on my face. I made a mental note to keep it on a little longer next time. I guess this review will include my review of the Extra strength Cream too. So continuing, two days later I decide to try the extra strength cream to see if I could yield better results. Let me start off by saying that if you know for sure that you have sensitive skin (like I did) then I would NOT recommend that you use the extra strength cream. Not only did it remove the hair off of my face (still left patches), but it also removed some SKIN off of my face too. Yes that's right, SKIN. I received some chemical burns from the product (using as directed too). I couldn't shave for a few days and I actually require a shaven face for work. Luckily my supervisor didn't notice my three day growth. So the next couple days after my face healed I used my razor with the Razor Bump Serum. I haven't been able to see the results of the serum because I'm still in trial mode with the creams and such. I'll write my review of the Razor Bump Serum when I get a chance to try it out using a razor when shaving. So after my face healed I decided to give the Mild/Sensitive skin Cream a chance again, this time leaving it on for a minute and a half longer (as recommended for hair that wouldn't come off easily). Guess what. It took some of my skin off too and left my face very tender. It did do a better job of removing the hair though. I did notice some patches but after washing my face in the shower (which was kind of painful) I noticed that the patches were gone. The next day (today) my skin is still kind of tender where the chemical burns are. So in conclusion, I am not going to continue to use this product for my face and I'll go back to my razor. On a side note I did use the Mild Cream for some chest hair and it worked pretty good. I guess my chest is tougher than my face. Oh and by the way, I did test the cream on a small area of my arm before I put it on my face and it worked fine (meaning no burn and the hair came off). I hope this review is helpful.
Pros:
- It removed the hair.
Cons:
- It removed some skin
- Left my face feeling tender

Merchant Response:
There is a small percentage of men who will not be able to use a depilatory.

Does what it advertises -- PERIOD!
By WILL from Miami, FL on February 3, 2011
It just simply works. I actually don't have to use it no more than once a week -- really. Also, I've noticed when my facial hair grows back -- it doesn't irritate me at ALL, which was a MAJOR issue when I use to use razors or clippers. Unfortunately, I can't find this product locally anymore -- but ordering online with Treasure Locks was a breeze - no issues.
Pros:
easy to use
Cons:
none.

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Formula 103 for Sensitive Skin
By Anthony Chase from San Antonio, Texas on February 3, 2011
At first leaving it in for the required time is not enough for me. I am not a person who has coarse hair on his face. It takes me approximately 12 minutes for all the hair to be removed. However, the result is well worth the wait.
Pros:
Easy to use
Mild odor
no irritation even after twelve minutes
Cons:
bottle size and the extra minutes to have the formula set on the face

Works as advertised. Nothing special
By Lewis from Richmond, Va on January 16, 2011
I bought this to help with razor bumps and haven't had any since I started using it as long as I apply it before the hair starts to grow in thick.
Pros:
No more bumps
Cons:
Always a few stragglers

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Amazing Product
By Mark Irvin from Columbus, Ohio on December 13, 2010
I have sensitive skin and have tried these types of products before without success, but this time and this product really WORKS!

Clear skin no bumps - Thank you!!!!

Pros:
Easy of Use
Skin sensitive

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Works better than Magic, Nair, and the others
By Nate from California on October 29, 2010
I have really sensitive hair on my chin and face. Everything else still gave me bumps. Formula 103 works, and has healed a lot of the bumps left over from Magic cream. I never really expected to be able to use a depillatory. But, this has worked like a charm.
Cons:
Small tube

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Good stuff
By Gianno Nogueras from New Mexico on October 14, 2010
Very mild on my skin. Works great. Wish there was more in the bottle

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Not what I expected
By Rudy from Atlanta GA on September 6, 2010
My wife saw this product on line and ordered it for me. My skin is a bit sensitive and I dislike shaving daily but ai have to due to my job. I was not impressed, Formula 103 left me looking as though I had a 5 0'clock shadow.
On the second application two days latter I left it on longer and same result. Maybe I was sent old tubes?

Pros:
easy to use
convenient
Cons:
leaves stubble
tube is small so you only get about three applications per tube

Merchant Response:
There are many more than three applications worth of product in a tube of Formula 103. If the mild product is not strong enough to remove your beard, you should try the extra strength product.

Formula 103 Facial Hair Remover
By William from Long Beach, California on January 5, 2010
Being in the military (Navy) and especially as the Public Affairs Officer for a major recruiting district, I have to present a 'poster perfect' appearance at all times, especially when it comes to a clean shave.
With Formula 103 Hair Remover Cream, all I have to do is make sure my uniform is sharp because my shave is well taken care of! I've NEVER had another Sailor ask me "How do I get such a close shave without the bumps and irritation?"
I immediately started singing the praises of F103 FHRC so much, he thought I was doing a commercial!! Needless to say, he went to the site and checked it out for himself.
After finishing off my shaves with the Razor Bump Serum, my face is as 'smooth as a baby's bottom.' No irritation....no bumps....no mess. This product should be 'standard issue' for all black men who have problems shaving with a blade.

Pros:
- Clean smelling
- Easy to use
- No mess
- Fast acting
And most importantly:

The ladies LOVE the finished product: A smooth, bump free face to cuddle up against!
Cons:
If there are any 'cons', they haven't been voiced yet !!!

I would recommend this item to a friend.

Review for
By Catherine from Milwaukee, WI on February 8, 2009
The reason I chose Formula 103 was because it was designed for sensitive skin. I tried it for hair removal in the bikini area, and it worked great! There is virtually no odor, and most importantly, no irritation whatsoever.
