I use this product to wax my upper lip and in between my eyebrows and its really good! It is really simple to use and gets a lot of those little fine hairs. I found it tricky to use on my eyebrows because the strips are a little bit to big. The only down side is that (this could just be me) But i found that a couple of days after using it I get pimples where I have used the product. Over all though really good product! Its the best one I found at the supermarket and it doesnt cost and arm and a leg.

Tips: Just rip it off straight away the longer you hesitate for the harder its going to get to yank it off!
Packaged in a plastic bag inside a box are 20 double sided strips. Aswell as four foiled bag after care wipes. The wipes are oil based and are a full size wipe which could've been smaller and I may try to half it to get more use from the 1. The strips have the feel of cloth and are weaved. They wax is green and no real scent that I can smell. The strips are conveniently sized to suit the small targeted areas for application. However I found for the brows still to be a bit big so have cut down more, to suite the brow are for easy use. It takes no time to prepare. Just rub between hands then peel apart and apply to area. Then rub onto target area until you see that the strip has adhered to target zone. Keep skin taut and rip off. I love the effect and the feeling isn't abrasive or tearing of the skin. The wax is very gentle yet effective with hair removal. It did show signs of tenderness on my skin near my lids as my upper right lid has a scar and this area is thinner than usual due to the scar tissue and this is where it teared at my skin. But not to worry I'm applying my kawa kawa cream to help and reduce any skin irritation. I found the wipes were more irritating to this secondary tear. The only thing that I had wrong but I don't blame the product I think this more my skin issue. I am now going to continue to purchase this for the price I get 20 uses and this would be the price of 1 visit to the beauty salon for the same job done. I think if you have ano facial hair of which you want to remove yourself do it and buy these. It's simple convenient and easy. If you have already a good brow shape and just need removal of excessive hair this is for you.
Tips: Cut strips down to suit your brows. Cut wipes to get more use. Or use Oil to remove residual wax. for other aftercare use either luvas paw paw ointment or any paw paw ointment. Tea Tree oil or manuka oil cream my favourite is kawa kawa cream especially if tears occur from waxing this cream reduces any stabbing and heals any superficial tear in days.
I really like these, especially for my upper lip area. They will probably be one of my holy grail items :)
Tips: You might want to invest in some baby oil as I feel, there aren't enough wipes to remove excess wax.
I've been using these for quite a few years now. I love that they aren't tested on animals.
You get 24 strips in the box and I only use 2 strips for my upper lip therefore this product last me a long time as I don't use it on any other areas.
I always exfoliate before waxing with my lip scrub that i have but you can use any product for that.
Firstly i warm the strip up by gently rubbing it between my hands and then press it down firmly on my upper lip. I do find that the strips don't 'mold' to the shape of my upper lip but that doesn't bother me too much. I leave it on for maybe one minute, hold my skin taught and quickly pull the strip off in the opposite direction to my hair growth.
I find that one strip takes off around 80-90% of the hair and the second strip removes the rest.
I don't have any issues with redness or swelling afterwards but that result would depend on the sensitivity of your skin. If you do though, simply rub on some aloe vera gel afterwards which is fantastic for soothing red, itchy, swollen skin.
When I first started using these, I found them difficult and always ended up with a big mess of left over wax on my lip. However like everything.....practice makes perfect and I now have no issues what so ever. If I have any wax left on my lip, I find that it washes off easily with some soap and water.
Overall I am satisfied with this product and only need to use it around every 3-4 weeks. Would highly recommend it.
Tips: Always exfoliate before waxing. I actually use a lip scrub to exfoliate my upper lip beforehand.
Apart from the fact that the shape of the strips did not fit snuggly to the shape of my upper lip, this did a really good job doing a clean-up. Sometimes if I did not get the timing right then I would have to go over the same area again, which left me with a nice red swollen patch if I wasn't careful. I use it with success on my mono brow and probably have to repeat it about every three to four weeks. Good product for a quick and easy hair removal fix on your face. Warm the strips up in your hands, apply with a little pressure then pull quickly against the hair growth. Easy peasy.
Tips: Skin has to be thoroughly clean and dry before applying otherwise your left with patches of hair which you have to go over again. If you have a big night out coming up, do it the day before rather than on the day of the occasion so it gives the skin time to settle. Apply a soothing cream/gel like Aloe Vera to help calm and moisturise afterwards.
I like the fact that you can warm these little strips up fast, but you also have to be speedy to apply them otherwise you won't get the best results. If they aren't hot enough the wax will stick to your face and leave a mess, which is hard to get off.
They do last a reasonable amount of time, although I find them quite pricey.
I think if i was to find something cheaper and as effective I would lean towards another product.
Tips: Maybe try cutting them to the length and shape for the perfect size, this will also save you money.
I liked the way the strips were easy to warm and apply, but I found it difficult to get the strip to fit to my top lip ('spose I should've cut it). I had to redo some parts. Yes, it did what it said but I just didn't love it. Found my skin had a break out a day or two later.
Won this along with a few other Nad's products. I have a lot of facial hair and these facial wax strips seemed to do the job. Very easy to use, removes hair easily and doesn't leave a sticky residue on your skin.
I find these brilliant! Quick and very easy to use! Brilliant for the upper lip and eyebrows! Pull the hairs out easily.
These are pricey and in my opinion just not worth the money. I liked that there were 24 in a pack. I wanted to use for my upper lip and between my eye brows. It was easy to heat up. But thats were the good parts end. I had to use approx 4 strips just for the upper lip and still did not get all the hairs. It left a mess and a red bumpy rash and by the next day had pimples in the area. i have sensitive skin and definitely aggravated my symptoms. never again would i use them, highly disappointed
Tips: dont use
