Okay, waxing sucks. So any products that make waxing even harder are not going to tickle my fancy. I don't usually wax my face since I either pluck or get my brows threaded, and these strips don't work very well anywhere else (legs, bikini, armpits). I'd much rather use warm sugar wax and disposable (or reusable) strips. Not only does hot wax take no arm power to warm up, (hello, microwave) but it is super easy to clean up if there's a drip or spill. A bit of warm water will dissolve sugar wax, whereas NOTHING removes the wax of these pre-poured strips. Be very careful where you place them! I'm going to stick to my usual routine.
I recieved this product for free from the Chick Advisor Product Review Club.
This is a really great idea for a product because heating wax in the microwave or going to the salon are time-consuming and often expensive. However, I found that the wax strips were not sticky or strong enough to really adhere to and remove the fine hair on my face. I still love the Nair brand but I will not be repurchasing this product.
Fell in love with this sample. I used it for my upper lip area. I peeled one strip and the wax evenly was distributed on both sheets so you get even more usage (I plan on using this up for my face area, so this sample will last very long) and wow. Easy to use, a lot of my hairs were removed and this essentially will be my replacement instead of going to a salon to get hairs removed from my face area. The cleaning wipe it comes with nicely removed the excess wax and I will be recommending this to my friends and family.
Yay! Thank YOU so much ChickAdvisor for sending me the Nair Wax Ready-Strips Face & Bikini to try out. :) There are 40 wax strips and 4 finishing wipes in the box. Let me start by saying that I've tried a lot of hair removal products at the drug store - from bleaching, shaving to waxing. I find that with waxing products there are a lot of misses in hair removal and huge consumer of my precious time! I've done the heat up and roll on, rub to warm up wax, cold wax etc. You can see that I have grown wary of drug store waxing formulas and products. For the first time I am genuinely impressed with the Wax Ready Strips. I used the pink bandaid size wax strips to shape my eyebrows and remove unwanted upper lip hair and it's FANTASTIC. This formula picks up short and fine hairs on my face and removes it without me going over the area (frustratingly) multiple times - leaving my skin feeling raw and looking pink. The ready to use strips doesn't leave behind lots of wax just speckles. Absolutely, I am switching from tweezers and bleaching creams to Nair's Wax Ready Strips - makes my life easier by saving me time. This is a need product in my home! I am highly recommending my female friends who are wary of hair removal systems to give Nair Wax Ready-Strips a spin because this has changed my hair removal ritual and saves me tons of time.
I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. These strips worked very well for removing face hairs. They are thin strips so they can be easily placed around the lips. I really like how they are ready to use without needing to heat them up. I found the post-wax wipes to be extremely oily and felt pretty gross on my face but they did effectively remove any residue wax. I would purchase this product again and recommend it to friends.
I didn't yet have enough "moustach" hair to remove so I used it on my face for some of the light hair on my cheeks and I found it did a great job.
To use these strips, you need to separate them from each other and pull slowly, otherwise you'll end up with more wax on one strip then the other, This is kind of a set back. I was hoping to be able to use them on my eyebrows, but unless you cut them it's not very easy, but great if you want to remove hair along the top part of your eyebrows.
The box says you can reuse each strip until it loses it's effectiveness, but I found that one pull pretty much did it in.
Overall, it is an easy to use product, but what it makes it easy also makes it's usability less. I suppose you could cut the strips if you wanted to work in finer areas. But this was something I didn't try.
The smell was vaguely of roses which might be a turn off for some, it is for me. These are great strips for unskilled work, but for skilled work, get precision wax and do it yourself.
I feel these would be a great introduction to waxing, but not for someone who is skilled at waxing.
WOW I was so amazed when I used it. I had used before the one that you need to heat it and didn't like it I have thick hair even facial one so I use the microwave one. When I received the box from chickadviser I was sure my review will be negative cz I already used the old ones and throw them in garbage. And when I read in the box no heating before separating the strips I smiled how could cold wax remove some thick hair like mine. And then boom I was amazed less time and few strips to do all.. I used to use a half of a box about 20 strips with the old box and then reuse a tweezer to continue cz my skin can't handle any more.. but with this new formula no I only used 6 strips 2 to each eyebrow and 2 for the mustache area and each strip can be used up to 4 times and take of hair each time... so impressed Nair good product and I ll definitely buy the body one and forget about the heating microwave one and burning areas...
really works well at removing hair whether its long or short hair. i find it kind of pricey for me but i do recommend for removing all of your hair that may be hard to remove.
The Nair Wax Ready Strips were very easy to use - even on my short face hairs. There was no irritation on my sensitive skin and I love how easy these stripes made the waxing process.

Really great product, it smells great, works well and one strip goes a long way. The only negative I have is that there aren't enough post wax wipes, compared to the number of wax stripes in the box. My skin is sensitive and wasn't irritated by the strips.
