This is one of the best over the counter facial wax removal systems I have tried. I have used several types. This product is the least messy of them all. I find it most effective to use a hair dryer to warm the wax strips before pulling them apart and using them. After using the strips, use the finishing wipes then wash your face with cool water. There is no residue at all and the results are excellent.
This is a fabulous product to have under your bathroom cabinet or in the zipper pouch of your beach bag. Two prepared strips are stuck together which you warm between your hands (I chafe my hands a little to hurry things up, or lay them in the sun for a minute), peel apart and slap on. It leaves very little residue (which you clean off with the included towelettes) and does a pretty thorough job. While I can't fairly compare it to a warm wax treatment and certainly not to a professional job, it does the trick quickly and simply.
I reuse my strips during the waxing session (not that I save them for the next one, that's gross!) by sticking the two strips back together. Mash them a little to press each side's wax layer into the other, rewarm and pull apart. I find you can get easily 4 or 5 waxes out of each strip, more if you're a little less (*ahem*) hairy. I've never used these on my face, but they work really well for armpits and bikini.
I don't really have a mustache -- I just think that I look prettier when those tiny hairs that only I can see with a 20X magnification mirror are gone. For one session I use only half of one side and fold the unused side over to save for another session. Double the use, quick, and easy. Comes 6 pairs of strips and 3 packets of wipes per box.
This product is very effective. I've been waxing for years, so I like to think I'm fairly brave to the pain involved. Veet strips are made out of some kind of horrible plastic, and it hurts like hell! My suffering was rewarded, however, by the complete removal of my hideous mustache, and since that was my goal, I recommend this product.
