THUMBS DOWN!

To start my review, I just want to say this device SUCKS!

It takes a really long time to heat up, the wax does not just "roll on" as advertised and is really hard to apply. It feels as though it's tugging on your skin/hairs as its being applied and does not go on even. Also the wax did not stick to the strip, and was a total nightmare. I will never use this thing again.

I am not sure if it was me doing something wrong? But I followed the instructions. Perhaps I should have waited longer for it to heat up..

It is a very cool concept though.. too bad it doesn't work :(

What a shame - sounds like the wax wasn't hot enough. It does take longer to heat up the rollers to preserve the integrity of the wax, if it heats too fast, then it's too runny and loses the tacky nature of the product and will not reheat the same.

Veet EasyWax

Like others have said, it takes a lot longer than 20 minutes to heat up. I let it heat up for about 45 minutes. I found I had to leave it plugged in (which the instructions said was ok to do) because it cooled down pretty fast and would just pull the hairs as I was applying it, ouch! It glided it on easy with it plugged in, but the cord did get in the way a bit. The instructions were easy to follow and I had no problems waxing my legs. It wasn't very painful compared to other times I've attempted to wax! this is the first time ever I've successfully waxed my legs and I don't think I'll be going back to shaving any time soon! I like how I could use the same paper strip multiple times - I used 2 strips for each leg. I think there should of been more of the wipes though because I found one wasn't enough for my whole leg (I have thick legs lol) so I ended up needing to use all of them to get the wax residue off. The wax wasn't messy to apply which is great for beginners like me! Right after I finished waxing my legs, these dark red spots appeared where the hairs were which kinda freaked me out! but they went away after about an hour. I also decided to try this on my bikini area to see if it's worth buying the smaller applicator. Well, I will NOT be doing that haha! it hurt so much and started bleeding, so I'll stick to shaving in that area ;) Overall I love this and I'm happy that I won it from BR as I probably wouldn't have bought it after previous experiences with waxing. I find the price is reasonable for this kit and the refills.

Veet Easy Wax

I loved being selected to try this. I found it look longer than instructions for it to heat up but eventually was right. I used this on my armpits & really wish the roll was a bit smaller but if I had used for my legs it would have been perfect size. The wax was a cute colour & smelt nice. I was late on my review due to needing to grow my hair to wax. Overall the instructions were good, I've used wax before so generally knew what to do. Possibly a few more strips would have been good. I like the concept of easy at home waxing & this product would suit that with the above adjustments. I would use this again, next time on my legs :)

Veet easy wax

I was excited to be invited to Try the veet easy wax kit, was cute packaging and very pink.I found instructions easy to follow but wen heating it up i had to wait twice as long as the instructions said and waited nearly an hour for it to be heated properly, but when it came to putting the wax on it didn't roll on as easy as I thought it would have been. I did have a little trouble applying it and had to do it twice to get a good line. I could of done with more of the fabric strips and the wipes they gave you to use to wipe the left over residue I needed more to do the whole leg but it did leave a nice smooth finish much nicer than shaving, you do need to leave yourself a good hour or so to complete this thou. My teenagers are wanting to try this now! I also think for the price of 39.99 it is not bad value.

Tips: Make sure you follow instructions and clean after each use

VEET EASY WAX

I was super excited to trial this product! I have been letting my leg hairs grow for a couple of days to get the full effect of this product below you will see my thoughts x

Firstly the Veet easywax packaging and product look very professional and are boxed in a super cute white an pink package which i was quite impressed with, included is a wax cartridge, fabric strips and soothing wipes :)

The instruction are very simple and straight forward to follow it was said to leave to heat for 20-30 mins but mine took around 45-50 mins to heat

Once heated wax is applied in a thin layer, you then apply your wax strips and pull off :) its as easy as 1-2-3 I used two strips for each leg and it took me approx 35ish mins to do both legs also i have dry/sensitive skin and have had no reaction to the wax I would have liked there to be more finishing wipes included but thats okay!

For the price ($39.99) you are getting a fairly good at home wax kit I would recommend this for people to give a go if you are wanting salon quality for half the price

Tips: i would suggest leaving upto 2hours to complete your waxing

Veet EASY wax

Along with other reviewers, this did take double the time the instructions say to heat up. The wax is a real lollypop pink colour which is cute. I used the paper strips over and over, using two for each leg. This is a good product, very very easy to use. Would definitely recommend.

Veet

I couldn't wait to try this so I went out and bought it from the local supermarket, it was on sale for $29.95. I loved how professional and easy it seemed to use. However it did take quite a long time to heat up, although it did eventually heat up to the right temperature. I tried this on my legs. I found the wax to be very sticky but I guess that's better than not sticking at all. It did pull out most of the hair and didn't leave my skin red. I didn't really like the wax strips it came with as you couldn't really use it twice and I didn't think there were enough in the box. I would have to buy more cotton strips if I wanted to use this again. The wax was a bit difficult to wash off my skin. I haven't reused this as I feel it is rather time consuming and can get a bit messy. I don't like to wait around for the wax to reheat.

wax on wax off

I used this product on my bikini line and I do realize that it might have been better if I had the smaller roll on adapter. However, I found that this product took ages to warm up, way longer than it states (40 minutes). I waited over 40 minutes and when I went to use it, it felt like the wax wasn't warm enough and was pulling on the skin. Sometimes in between the waxes I found it might have cooled down so I would wait another 5 minutes or so during the waxing session just to get it to roll on smoothly. It felt very sticky and would pull on the hairs and hurt. I have used the veet wax strips and I find these in comparison much easier and less messy. While I do really like the "idea" of the product. It didn't really work for me.

Tips: Wait at least an hour before using

Almost perfect!

I really wanted to love this product! I have used Veet wax products before and had really great results from them, and was looking forward to using the Veet EasyWax.

First impressions: The roller looks professional and appealing, and has a little stand for it to sit on while you use it, which is really helpful. It comes with 1 wax cartridge, fabric strips, and soothing wipes.

The instructions were very easy to follow. I have waxed my legs before as well as having them done professionally, so I had a fair idea of what to do, but if you are a total wax newbie there is a YouTube video showing how to use the product which I thought was a nice touch.

Using the product: The roller took much longer than the 20 minutes indicated in the instructions to heat up. Probably closer to 45 minutes before I could roll out any of the wax. The wax itself was quite plastic-y, and didn't all come off with the fabric strips. After a while I figured out that it helped to hold the skin REALLY taut, but even then it took a few go-overs to get all the wax off cleanly.

Overall: Despite the initial problems with heating up the roller, I eventually got the hang of it and ended up with a good result. My skin usually goes incredibly red with waxing, and I didn't find that happening at all with the Veet EasyWax. I will definitely be using this product again, and I'd recommend it to people who have waxed before. If you're a total leg wax virgin I would highly recommend watching the video and taking your time to do it properly, but if you've done it (or had it done) before you will find this product really easy to use.

Tips: Wait a bit longer for the roller to heat up. Hold your skin very taut to ensure the wax is removed cleanly. After using 2 strips, stick the wax sides together so you can use them again.

A little Extra heat for Veet

I was really excited to try the Veet EasyWax Electrical Roll On as I have been waxing for many years, either at the salon or using the strips that you rub together in your hands.

Firstly, inside the box you will find the base, the warmer, the electrical connector, a wax refill, the strips and after wax wipes.

The instructions recommend that you heat the wax up for 20 minutes but I found that it worked better when it was heated for longer - about 45 - 60 minutes meant the wax was a much better consistency and rolled on really smoothly.

Once the wax has heated, you roll it on in the direction that the hair grows, place the wax strips on, hold the skin taught and pull off in the opposite direction of the hair growth.

The instructions also recommend that hair growth of 2-5mm is best and I was well within (or even beyond) the level of growth as I had been growing my leg hairs for the big trial ;-).

Overall it only took me around 45 minutes to wax my legs (not including heating time) but I imagine I will get faster as I use it more often. I found the applicator base in which the wax sits really easy to use, however the hotter and more melted the wax was, the better and easier it applied to the skin.

I didn’t think it was too painful but I have been waxing for almost 20 years so the hair that I do have is quite fine and sparse.

I am definitely a huge waxing fan and think this is a fantastic product which worked really well for me. I will be buying more refills and making less trips to my usual waxing salon this summer.

Tips: Heat for approximately 45-60 minutes for a smooth result and more melted wax. Try and apply a very thin layer of wax to your legs - a thicker application is hard to remove leaving wax on your legs. Apply the wax in the direction of your hair growth and rip the strips in the opposite direction. Always use the wipes and apply moisturiser straight after to leave your legs super smooth.
