I picked these up because of the "sensitive" part on the blue box. I had been keeping my largely scarred "treasure trail" of ex-ingrown hairs very moistureised, clean, and un-irritated, so i could wax it. Brought these home, cut them to the right size, rubbed in between hands for about 30 seconds, and followed the direction. I pulled my skin straight, and waited for the pain. I felt nothing, looked at the strip, and there was like ONE hair on the wax! I ended up using 6 or 7 strips, trying to get one small area done. I now have a rash, and only half of the hairs are gone. Im getting this done professionally! it left a very sticky residue, i tried the .  Read the complete review

Until recently there was no way that I would have been writing a review about a waxing product, but here I am. So why the change of heart? Read on. BACKGROUND: For a long time I couldn't entertain the thought of hairs being ripped from my body. I mean, why? All that pain when shaving got pretty much the same result. However, a few months ago I was starting to get really annoyed by having to shave my bikini line as I was getting really bad ingrowing hairs and the area was getting painful. My friends kept on insisting that waxing really wasn't that bad. It took a while but eventually I decided to book myself in at a salon. My first ...  Read the complete review

Until I studied beauty at college, I had never thought of waxing my legs. Shaving is just something I have always done because waxing meant going to a salon and spending more money - razors cost £3 for a few and last a couple of months! After learning how to wax properly and having waxing done on my own legs, I decided to buy my own 'at home' kit so I could get better whilst making my legs silky smooth. My leg hair has never been dark or thick, its quite light and fair but it does bother me a ridiculous amount. When shaved, it tends to grow back to stubble in around 4 days (but I whip it back off again before this point!). In honesty, I only ...  Read the complete review

I have NEVER shaved my legs... a fact that i'm quite proud of and a fact that others seem to find very strange! Since i was about 15 i have opted to wax my legs instead because it has been proven that the hair grows back slower and finer each time. The hair on my legs has never been dark because i have naturally quite fair hair anyway, so obviously i did not want black, course hair growing on me pins!! I have ALWAYS paid to have it done because usually i can go about eight to ten weeks without the hair growing back... but since i've been at university i have had to cut down on my spending! Also, i think i would feel like i was cheating on the beautician that normally ...  Read the complete review
