Veet Wax Strips

These strips are absolutely wonderful!,,. I just received them today and tried them right away on my calves. No prep just put them on. I smoothed them out just a few swipes to make sure they were adhered well then rippppp. They removed all the hair instantly. The pain was very minor. I don’t like to shave my legs in the winter so I thought I would try these. I am going to work on exfoliating and moisturizing and use them again. I’m sure the results will be great! Very easy and fast.I would definitely recommend. Also, I used a little bit of bio oil and a tissue to remove little bits of wax after use.

This is a first impression review. I just used this about 10 minutes ago, so my opinion could be updated in time. I have shaved for many years now. I got sick of doing it, so I stopped. My hairs have grown extremely thick and coarse. They're borderline manly. I wear pantyhose whenever my legs are shown. But summer's coming soon and I'd like to wear shorts. Since shaving was out of the question, I decided to try these on a whim. I am a newbie when it comes to waxing. So I tried them today and I am VERY impressed! Of course, they don't get every single hair, but how amazing would that be? Anyway, so it says to make sure your hair is between 1 and 5 mm or something like that. I eyeballed it and thought, yeah my hairs are long enough. I decided to measure AFTER waxing my left leg. My leg hairs are about 1 cm long! That's probably why it hurts a little more, but the pain is tolerable and short living. When you're ready to pull it off, you just have to not think about it. About once or twice I would think about it for too long. I'm a newbie, what can you do. I've used 3 strips so far, and my left leg still isn't done yet, but I have thick calves, so it's understandable. I was able to use a strip about twice. When I inspected the use strip, I could see the hair roots, which excited me (yeah I'm a dork.) Hopefully the hair will grow back thinner now. The box says to test the wax on your skin first, which I didn't notice until AFTER I waxed. So far nothing bad has happened yet. But keep that in mind if you have sensitive skin. So far, I'm impressed. Will update eventually. UPDATE: So the above I submitted in mid-February and it is now June 6, 2015, about four months later. I have to say that I will never return to shaving. I love how waxing leaves my skin and how my hairs grow back finer. I decided to be bold and use this on my upper lip and it works just as well. I've also used it on my knuckles and underarms. I have not been disappointed. If you're thinking about stopping the razor, this is a good place to start.

I bought these for pilonidal cyst management and prevention (go ahead and google that if you don’t already know what that is, and I’m sorry you now know this about me). I saw all the negative reviews about sticky residue being left behind and thought, how bad can it be?? Let me tell you, that is exactly what happened, but so so much worse. I applied one strip to the target area, followed the exact instructions, and it removed like five strands of hair, but left a landing strip of sticky wax on my near-nether regions, like someone had put glue in my underwear as a prank, and now every step I took was then ripping out a fresh patch of hair. So now I’m trying to fix it, standing at the sink for 30 minutes with a bar of soap and a razor blade, washing and shaving out the clumps of waxy hair, having to do it in the mirror so I’m getting all kinds of razor cuts, so now I’m just looking like a carved up Christmas ham, and yes it all hurt a lot. 30 minutes later, I got the initial layer of wax off but it’s still sticky, and I’m just sitting here very, very angry. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT buy these wax strips.

I had to come and write a review because these were TOO good. I used them to wax my eyebrows. I just cut them into small strips and they removed all of the unwanted hair around my brows. And to think I was about to spend $15 for an eyebrow wax at the nail salon. So happy that I have these a chance.

My husband uses for his chest/back. One of the only brands that consistently works. Only ding is that it does leave a residue that the oil doesn’t really help to remove. I also find warming the strips up w your hands before use significantly helps.

Works pretty well but I had to do multiple strips on one area to try to remove hair and it still wouldn’t remove it. When I pulled apart the strips I would only use one at a time but I noticed if I left the other one exposed to the air for too long, around longer than a minute, it wouldn’t work as well anymore. The wipes work well to get the wax off though. This was my first time waxing my legs with them though so it may have been more painful because of that but they did hurt. It did get annoying and too painful when I had to go over one spot multiple times. I used almost all 40 on just my legs in one session and a one or two on my hands to test them out. Another thing was that the wax would get stuck to my skin a lot which made the hair that it didn’t remove also stuck to my skin which made it even harder to remove when I went over that spot again. Sometimes the strips would pull the hairs out with the roots but not out of the hair follicle itself. What I mean is, sometimes if I just barely pulled on a hair it would come out without any pain or struggle. Like it had already been ripped out but the wax strip wasn’t able to pull it out completely. I had also bought a hard wax kit that requires me to melt wax beads and it was significantly easier and less messy compared to these wax strips. However the hard wax would also take multiple tries but it would at least pull out hair still. After about trying 4 times in one area using the wax strips, they just stopped working so I gave up on my legs using the wax strips. I also did exfoliate my legs physically 2 days prior.

I love this product. It’s takes a lot of hair and doesn’t make it burn or have that reaction like hot wax. I have very sensitive skin. I would only like to change about the stickiness after. Like give a wipe that can take the stickiness after waxing. And give a cooling wipe to help soothe skin. But it’s wonderful product and very simple to use!

I have been having my legs waxed at a salon for 35 years, but due to the Coronavirus lockdown, I thought I would try the easygel wax strips. This was my first ever home wax. They are excellent, & removed all of my leg hairs. A lot of reviews state that they do not remove many hairs, & the wax stays on your legs. As long as the strip is rubbed down on the leg for about 10 seconds, before pulling off, it works brilliantly. I also used the same strips twice. My legs are really smooth, with no irritation. The wipes are good at removing any residue, after waxing. I will probably use these strips after lockdown ends, as they are cheaper than salon prices!!

Son buenísimas !!! No irritan la piel ni dejan cera pegada , excelentes !!

Very good product

Worth of money because you have a doubled 20wax strips which makes a total of 40.

1. Smallish section strips supplied (would have been better to have had full calf length strips or an opportunity to by various sizes or even a mix) 2. Residue left after application. This needs washing off before going out or going to bed. I used the strips before bed time and found 20 minutes of time needed in order to 'scrub' off the wax. It didn't come off with just soap application or flannel use. I had to use a sponge with scrubbing back area in order to remove the various areas the wax decided to leave residue on. 3. The strips need pulling apart from each other for application. I believe this lessens the wax ability as some strips may take wax from the other strip its attached to. You have to be very careful on pulling each strip from the other as it can catch your fingers or other (around or by you). When the strips are separated you need to put the other strip (not yet being used) carefully to one side (if you can get it away from your fingers if it somehow clings to you) 4. Didn't remove all hairs. Re-application and still hairs stayed. The instructions claim the strips can be used over a few times but to be honest once or twice used.....lose the strip and pull removal aspect - so hardly worth using if going in for more than a 2nd reapplication. 5. Tried a strip on my arms and the hairs there are finer and after 2 days have not returned. On the legs, not a similar hoped for response. The legs have some hairs left and others gone and others starting to grow. Overall, a quite expensive hair removal that for me wasn't ideal for removing leg hair (on the calf areas). The strips are too short. You need to remember where you applied the last strip when carrying on with hair removal. Time consuming, messy stick wax residue that was stubborn to shift. Not removed all hair, some remained. Did I correctly follow instructions...yes I did. I daresay will work for others (as the reviews show hence influencing the decision to purchase) but for me (and others) a result that wont see my returning to purchase. Back to the epilator or foam removal cream. Both these applications have drawbacks such as epilating can be a bit painful and Veet removal foam application can tend to burn a bit (whilst on and a bit after being showered off ). The good old fashioned razor sees to quick instant hair remover but hairs grow back stubbly and make your legs prickly. Going to a beautician is pricey! Lots of hair removal products on the market but thankfully I tend to get away with hair removal due to having blonde leg hair so until there is a method that doesn't cause pain, burn or fast grow back or poor results then like the majority of us waiting for the right product to come on the market.
