You really have to rub the strips to hear them and all the hair doesn't get removed. You end up redoing the same spot several times
Let the hair grow longer than recommended and may have only removed 3 hairs..... And a layer of skin. It hurt and didnt work
I mainly use these strips on my legs. They work really well, even on short hair. The grip tab makes them easy to use on legs, but I don't like them as much for waxing underarms. I cut the strips in two for waxing underarms and the half with no grip tab is less easy to use. Overall, a very good product.
Easy to use until you try to pull the product off your face. I don't recommend it. It literally pulled off the top layer of my skin - and I was sore for a week. Bit of a nightmare if you ask me. I don't think I'll try anything Veet again for a LONG time.
First off, I could not get it to work with respects to removing hair...on the other hand it removed the top layer of my skin like gang busters. Sadly I did want to remove some facial hair (sigh) and thought I would try the Veet ready to use wax strips. I followed the instructions carefully because I didn't want something to go wrong on my face. Warm strips gently between hands (check), try on a small patch of skin first (check), pull strips apart and apply to spot you want to remove hair from. Press down to apply (check). Pull tab quickly in direction opposite to hair growth (check). Only remove 2-3 hairs AND the entire top layer of skin (check)...oops my bad, that wasn't in the instructions. Too bad it happened though! Luckily I had tried just under my chin so the red, sore, road rash injury isn't directly obvious to all unless I lift my head up. I would definitely not try these again. The injury is bad enough but coupled with the fact that really no hair came out...truly frustrating (and painful). Save your skin, go to a professional.
I use this on my face, and avoid the hot mess that I inevitably incur when using traditional wax. No heating the wax, no using cloths trips, no washing the strips later. No stringy waxy hot mess. Just put the strips on your hairy skin, smooth down firmly, pull your face skin with one hand to make it tight and rip with the other. Painful, but good. I would recommend this to those looking to wax at home without the mess.
works a lot better than most hair removal items i have used. i found that it didn't even hurt to use them and they were so easy to use...will definitely continue using this item :)
One word ladies ... OUCH! To be fair though, let me qualify this review, okay?
I am not a waxer because I hate discomfort. What's more, I have difficulty inflicting pain on myself. Ripping the strips off might not be as bad if someone else was doing it and was there to say "Don't be such a baby!"
The strips didn't get all of the hairs the first time. The package instructions said that you can re-use the strips until they aren't sticky, but the second application missed more hairs and was another exercise in pain. Afterwards, I had red spots all over where the hairs had been.
For me it wasn't a great experience ... but maybe it would be fine for others.
I was VERY pleased with this product! It removes even little tiny hairs and DO NOT use over the lip if you have just washed your face. I like to use it at the end of the night so there's no chance of stripping your skin PLUS after you wax your skin turns red and puffy for 30 mins!
