Veet
Veet, formerly called Neet and Immac, is a current trademark of chemical depilatory internationally sold products manufactured by Reckitt Benckiser.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.veet.com/ )〕 Hair removal creams, mousses and gels, and waxes are produced under this brand. It has previously created similar products under the names Neet and Immac.
Veet's hair removal products contain thioglycolic acid and potassium hydroxide. These ingredients react to generate the depilatory chemical potassium thioglycolate, which according to the company, increases hair loss. The effect is to break the disulfide bonds of the keratin molecules in hair. This reduces the tensile strength of the keratin so greatly that the hair can be wiped away.
==Product history==
Previously called "Neet," the hair removal product was manufactured by Hannibal Pharmaceutical Company and registered as a US trademark in 1919 in Canada〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ic.gc.ca/app/opic-cipo/trdmrks/srch/vwTrdmrk.do;jsessionid=0001LYC00jkU72fnmXL7KUCJGmT:-S00UG1?lang=eng&status=OK&fileNumber=0097944&extension=0&startingDocumentIndexOnPage=1 )〕 and in 1922 in the US.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://assignments.uspto.gov/assignments/q?db=tm&qt=sno&reel=&frame=&sno=71150314 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://tdr.uspto.gov/jsp/DocumentViewPage.jsp?71150314/ORC20051023183856/Registration%20Certificate/1/28-Mar-1922/sn/false#p=1 )〕 The trademark for Neet was then picked up by the American Home Products Corporation in 1958. Neet was then transferred to its current holder, Reckitt Benckiser (then called Reckitt & Colman (Overseas) Ltd.).〔
The Veet name was established in 1922 in the UK.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ipo.gov.uk/t-find-number?detailsrequested=C&trademark=428725%20A )〕 The name was used in some European countries, but was not used universally. For example, while the product was sold as Veet in France, the product was sold in Canada and the United States as Neet until 2002, when the Veet name was first used commercially in those countries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=78187388 )〕
