Advantages: Cheaper alternative to salon waxing

Disadvantages: You have to do the work yourself

As a woman who loves the feel after a wax I would definately recommend this as a cheaper alternative. Equally I would recommend this product for those who are thinking of trying waxing but aren't quite convinced.

I use the shea butter & berry which smells lush. The instructions are easy to follow, all it takes is 4 steps. Rub the wax strips between your hands to warm the wax, pull the strips apart, rub the strip on your leg and pull.

This product is virtually pain free, but beware when using on your bikini area as it can sting a little, but the results are worth it. The product does claim to grab hair as short as 2mm however I am not convinced as I do find sometimes I still have a few strays, especially on my bikini area.

Waxing yourself does require some strenghth and technique, obviously you aren't able to get the same angle as another person doing it for you. I found I had to repeat my bikini line and this did cause some slight bruising the first time I used this product. But as they say practice makes perfect. I also found there was minimal wax residue but for this the pack does include 4 finishing wipes.

A tip: I find blasting the hair dryer on the strips heats the wax much better than using your hands.

Summary: A great product that offers value for money and lasting results
