Veet Cold Wax Strips, Hair Removal, Bikini & Underarm, Sensitive Skin, 16 Strips each, 3 Finish Wipes

Product Information

Again, these are cold wax strips, which are more gentle on sensitive areas of skin; but you may find you need to go over the same area a few times for a totally smooth finish. The Hollywood bikini wax is just about as far as you can go with bikini waxing, and is the style to go for if you don’t want any hair left down there at all.

That little increase in warmth is all you need to rival the effectiveness of professional hot wax in a salon or spa. And, when it came to cleaning the kit, you simply wait for the wax to fully cool and then pull it from the heating pan, which we found pleasantly therapeutic. Yes, it takes some getting used to, but after one treatment, we felt like waxing pros, and the result was a bump-free, smooth finish. The no-heat sheets are prepped with a soft gel formula, which is made without artificial colors, fragrances, parabens, or mineral oil. And, great news for those who are worried about waxing being a painful experience: "I was pleasantly shocked at how painless (well, as painless as waxing can be) my experience was," they added.The soft, flexible strips easily conform to the contours of your face, and they contain natural beeswax to yank hair as short as 3 millimeters. If dealing with messy application is your biggest pain point with at-home waxing, allow us to introduce you to this easy, clean, and efficient option from Parissa. I have sensitive skin and I’m often left with razor burn but these wax strips leave me pain free and without bumps or redness the day after.

Hot wax kits may seem a bit scary to new home waxers, but they’re worth braving if you’re after a salon-quality finish, can be cheaper in the long run, and are quite easy to get the hand of after just one go. When we're talking about waxing the hair anywhere on the body, there are a few important tips to keep in mind. The unique "soft gel" wax that's spread on the 24 strips in Flamingo's Body Wax Kit is adept at grabbing not only the coarse, obvious hairs you want to remove, but also the more elusive, finer hairs you don't want left behind. However, if you've got a special event or vacation coming up and can't wait for it to grow out, you might be successful with 0.

It’s a hard wax, which is especially choice for your bikini area; ideal for coarser hairs, it wraps around each one, making it easier to remove.

To reduce inflammation and irritation, apply a soothing serum to the area or a cool compress of chamomile tea, recommends Ophals. Also, stay out of the sun for up to a day after you finish—the skin is extra sensitive during that time. Having waxed both clients and me, I have to acknowledge that inflicting pain on oneself can be difficult. Read The Directions: No matter which wax strips you use, make sure that you read the directions carefully.

FYI, it can be a bit messy, and there is a little bit of a learning curve when figuring out how to use it, but reviewers rave about how well it works. Ahead, Maria Desmarais Co-Founder + Co-CEO of Athena Club breaks down how to use wax strips at home. These top-rated gel wax strips from Veet are formulated with good-for-you ingredients like shea butter, almond oil, and vitamin E to nourish the skin after you remove the hair. You'll then apply the strip to your skin, smooth it down to embed the hair in the wax, and tear the strip quickly in the opposite direction of your hair growth, says Ophals. If you've never waxed it may be more difficult for the hair to be removed but if you have waxed it will come out pretty easily and the pain was minimal.
