Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips

I had high hopes for this product since vest is such a respected brand. It did not work, I first tried to wax under my arms, it left a thick sticky layer of wax, no hair was removed. I decided I could try again some other day, that day came and it was the exact same result!. MAY I also add that the strips are painful,you rip it off and considering the pain you would of thought that all the hair would be removed leaving smooth skin as advertised,but no. Nothing but a big red irritated patch of skin with hair on it. Awful do not buy!.

Wax was extremely sticky and left residue on the skin that the wipes were ineffective of. Didn't remove the majority of the hair and was very hard to use. A complete pain to do and leaves you with wax that isn't easily removed, absolutely rubbish. Won't be using again.

I love veet, I've had trouble with facial hair all of my adult life. It's is so easy and works so good. My friend from up north came to visit. We used veet and she went to the store and bought all they had in stock. I'm a big fan of the product. Reasonably priced!!

I used the sensitive very wax strips. First, I used it on my legs and everything went just fine despite it leaves some hair and the strip can't be used more than 2-3 times. Then I started waxing my arm (forearm) the strip stuck and I was not able to remove it for a few minutes then I noticed a huge red rash and burning sensation in my arm, I rushed to sink it with cold water and thought that it would be a temporary redness and everything will go just fine! But it DID NOT :( it burnt my skin!! Its summer you know! But thanks to veet I will have to wear only long sleeve this month hoping to be better the next months! I'm really upset and this product should not be sold and you should not buy it.

I've used another brand of wax strips for over a de ade with no problems. My pharmacy was out of stock, so I tried Veet Sensitive Formula "Easy to Uae" Wax Strips. I followed the directions exactly, and the first strip worked fine. Using the same tchnique, the second strip didnt work, leaving a thick layer of wax on my leg. Unlike the other brand I've used, the extra wax would not re-adhere to the strip, and this thick layer woukd not come off with anything, not with the'perfect finish wipes',not with soap. I had to scrap that thock layer of wax off with my fingernails, then scrap it out from u der my nails. 30 minutes later, mostbut not alk is off and my keg is sticking to the bed sheets. I've thrown out the rest of the box, theres no way I'll try it again. What a waste of money!! This product is total garbage, and my experience sounds typical, came on the web looking for reviews and saw other women having the same expetience. VEET WAX STRIPS SUCK, dont buy these!!

So many years since I tried wax strips I thought they would be improved no end. The wax got hot all right, it was easy to apply and your first clue to it's efficiency would be lack of pain when pulling the strips off. Came off too easily, without pulling a single hair off. I even did it twice to make sure it wasn't me. Don't waste your money.

So I bought this before work for my upper lips I was just tired of shaving it and thought this would be a great idea . I thought about getting the Sally Hansen one , but since veet was a little pricer I thought it would be more effective . I was so excited to use it I read all the directions to the t . So when I started waxing NOTHING came off !!!! So I tried one more time and only a little came out it was like using Elmer glue to remove hair literally , then my upper lips got extremely red I went to work and my co worker asked me if I was drinking red juice I was embarrassed the next morning some of the skin turned brown that's when I realized it burned my skin now I look hideous and had to call out of work . Veet ruined my life don't waste money on this please go to a pro or seek bleaching or plucking

waste of money and time.

HOW EMBARRASSING

So being 36 weeks pregnant and knowing that I would need to be clean shaven "down there" for my cesarean I decided to try my hair removal options and bought the Veet "Easy-Grip-Ready-To-Use" Wax Strips. I figured if I could combine this method with shaving, I wouldn't have to worry so much about regrowth once baby was born.

So I boldly went where many unfortunate people have gone before me.

I positioned a mirror in front of a chair and placed myself and my huge belly with no dignity in front of it. I took out the wax strips and read the box carefully. It seemed simple enough. Warm the strips between my hands...Cool...Peel them apart..Hey look at that, 2 strips for the price of 1...Ok...Place them on the bikini line in the direction of the hair growth...Ok, I got this. Now remove as quick as possible...

I grabbed the one end of the wax strip and tried to tear the thing off as quick as possible but it didn't move an inch. Instead, it had somehow infused itself to my skin and they two seemed to be joined for life. The pain was unbearable!!I started to panic but told myself to calm down...they wouldn't make a product like this if it didn't work, would they?

So I tried again to hold the skin and pull the wax off quickly. The scream that was released out of my throat didn't sound like something that came from a grown woman but rather like a tortured ferret or vermin of some sorts. This was bloody sore. NOW I WAS PANICKING!

Slowly I peeled the wax strip off my skin millimeter by millimeter. And millimeter by millimeter, the strip started to detach but the wax stayed behind leaving a sticky mess of hair and goop which was getting stuck to my fingers and legs. Once I had successfully removed the wax strips from both sides of my bikini line, and whipped the tears from my eyes, I looked in the mirror at my red and bleeding skin, covered in wax and hair (NONE OF THE HAIR CAME OFF...NONE!!!). I risked trying to pull the wax off with my fingers and all of a sudden my hand was now stuck to this mess. I tried to free my hands by slowly pulling and again the unwelcome tears started pouring down my face. There was nothing for it, I had to pull my fingers free...and quick.

So I took a few breaths and quickly pulled my fingers free from the tangled mess. Another scream escaped my lips and when I stood up, I had tufts of hair and wax and blood stuck to my finger tips. I tried to rinse these off under the tap but the putrid mess just wasnt budging. In the mean time, while I stood up and walked to the basin, the wax had managed to rub from my bikini line, onto my legs and belly so that certain "very sensitive bits of skin" were now getting stuck to my inside thighs and my legs were getting stuck to my "Ehem" and I stood there, crying my eyes out, afraid to move when I remembered the wipes that came with the strip.

In lightning speed I had those wipes out and was vigorously trying to remove the wax from my skin. Eventually I had to burn through 5 razors and loads of shaving cream to remove the hair as it was the only way to get rid of the wax. And the worst part was that the razors kept getting clogged up with wax so I would have to use a new one.

This was a dreadful experience and one I never wish to repeat. DO NOT...UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES USE THIS PRODUCT!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT FOREVER!

Thought he wax was meant to stick to hair not my dam skin. Followed the instructions fully then came time to peel off it ripped my dam skin off with it.Quickly ran my shin under cold water but was in pain a few days

Threw the rest away
