Veet Ready to Use Wax Strips for Face

I am a big wax fan and when I saw these strips they looked very easy to use and perfect for your face. I purchased these for around $15? I cant really remember but they were a bit overly priced compared to other ones I had used in the past but veet never lets me down so I thought why not.

The strips are a perfect size and very easy to use, I tried them once before and they were ok, they left more redness than usual but the second time I used these I had the worst experience ever. The second time I used these I applied them to under my eyebrows, waited a few seconds before pulling against the grain and I felt a stinging sensation, I did second side under my second eyebrow and the same thing happened. I looked in the mirror and that the areas I had just waxed were red, they started bleeding a little bit and I panicked. It started burning so I wet a cloth with cold water and left it there for a few minutes, it hurt so badly! Looking at the strips that I had just used, they had small pieces of skin, I was so disgusted and disappointed, they hurt for days and I couldn't put any makeup under my eyebrows for just under 2 weeks. Since then I haven't used these strips again, I threw the rest of them into the rubbish.

I don't know if it was just a bad batch but it has scared me to use these strips again. Im glad that months after using these the skin came back and there are no scars.

These are great for all areas of the body, not just the face as stated. BUT - they should have the same amount of wipes as they do wax strips? Not sure why they don't!

Veet facial wax strips are my favourite to use! They are the only brand that doesn't leave my face red for hours and they don't make my face break out in a bumpy red rash like other brands have. The after wipes are great.

Wow I use these on my face.. Mainly upper lip and I found it very very very painful. I have had my upper lip done for years but nothing hurt more than these strips. It left a lot of wax on my skin and was hard to remove. It didn't get rid if all the hair so I ended up tweezing anyway! If your wanting something quick and easy I wouldn't recommend this product it looks like its easy but in the end it takes you longer to clean up what it misses. It didn't really have a scent tho! Over all I found I did not like this product and wouldn't use again! Disappointed.

I would use these again most definitely if only it didn't hurt that much. It works great and it even has little moisturised packaged tissues to help wipe up after all is finished. Overall it's great, but I've never been the type to wax.

I use this product regularly and i would have to say its probably my favourite it removes hair well and i get no rashes from it which is a massive bonus as nobody likes getting rashes from hair removal the wipes are a wee bit oily but they work pretty well to soothe the skin

Sooooo I don't really like to grow my moustache too long so I sometimes like to wax it (JOKING). But seriously, I bought these Veet strips and used about 5 times. 4 out of 5 times this gave me a terrible red stingy patch (use on upper lip) as if it's actually ripping some of my skin out!!!! It takes days for this to heal and I used papaw cream and lots of moisturizer to help heal this faster. I thought I might be doing it wrong hence I insisted but seems to be persistent so might just stick to a salon (excuse the pun). I also find that it doesn't remove 100% of the hair (especially the finer) and I have to use an epilator to finish off the job!!! (ouch)

I always try to keep a package of these on hand in my bathroom cupboard for in-between getting my brows done. They are incredibly handy to cut into a small section to remove stray hairs easily and quickly when you don't have time to stand around with a pair of tweezers. I haven't had any issues with wax residue being left behind, the little odd bit wipes away effortlessly with the supplied wipes or a smidge of baby oil.

Simple and easy to get on and off. I use these on my face as well as other but areas such as the old snails trail and they work great to pick up the few hairs that grow there. Really easy to use and cheap also which is a bonus! The new design makes pulling them off even easier also!

The ready to use wax strips are easier to use than hot wax options, but the results are less effective. The wax is incredibly sticky, making it harder to apply to the right areas. The paper tabs are hard to get a grip of, so when you go to pull them off you are often left with a lot of hair on the affected area.
