Veet Warm Wax Review

I'll admit I was a bit scared to use this product initially. Easy to use and with the added bonus of the indicator, you can't go wrong really

Okay, well this wasn't a very pleasant experience. Let's just say I won't do this again by myself.

The first few strips, that I used and applied on the wax worked okay, but then as I did more and more it got more and more messy. It was sticky everywhere and water doesn't really help to remove it. I have to use coconut oil to remove it, which helped slightly.

I definetly wouldn't do this again at home, i would rather spend a bit more money and get it done professionally

This was the first at home DIY wax I've used. The application and product was fairly easy to use with easy instructions. The smell is also lovely! The first time using it everything went great, I managed to remove unwanted hair on myself and a cheeky strip on my partners back haha! However the second time I used it it was a disaster, the wax just tore at my skin. Not really sure what went wrong, maybe I got water in the pot when heating? Overall I will probably buy a new one in the summer and give it another go.

I usually epilate - but my partner wanted his back wax - we started with this veet wax, but found that you couldnt reuse the wax on the strip once pulled. Its a good wax - but Nair is better in my opinion.

I had never even considered waxing, until I saw this product on special and thought i would give it a try (this was at least a year ago). I had always been a razor girl so was interested in how I would find a waxing kit.

This product comes with the wax in a big white tub. The tub has a twist off lid (which can be hard to get on and off and the wax residue can harden and make it stick). The tub is boring, and nothing special. It also comes with a spatula, which has a heat temperature spot which lets you know if the wax is too hot to use (something that i found really handy), and it comes with fabric wax strips as well.

The wax is slightly darker than golden syrup, and an almost solid consistency. Once heated the consitency turns into a thin runny honey, which makes it really easy to spread thinly. Then its easy to place a strip down, rub it over the wax, pull skin tight with one hand and remove the strip with the other,

This product definitely isn't painless (but easily bearable), and removes about 80% of the hair on the first go, so i find you do have to go over the same spot more than once which makes my skin a bit tender.

There are some issues with this product. I find there actually arent enough wax strips to wax my entire legs, especially when i have to wax spots more than once. I find that i actually use a lot of wax as well, which means this is not a cost effective option for me. The wax also cools down really quickly, which is annoying because then you have to reheat it.. and wait for it too cool down and it's really time consuming.

On a positive note, it does remove hair and provide long-lasting results, as well as the residue wax spots being easily removes with a warm wet flannel.

Overall, this product has as many pro's as it does cons. Its a nice product, but the design and kit needs a bit more thought, and using this requires patience which I don't always have.

I used this on a friend's legs, and as long as the pot was kept hot, it was just fine. I only had an issue with the pot cooling to quickly so I had to keep getting up to zap it in the microwave, then waiting for it to cool a little so it wasn't too hot. Tedious process!

I bought this when I first started waxing my legs and under arms and wanted a cheaper option than going to the salon. It's a long, messy process but the wax does work.

I find I have to heat it up for longer than stated, but the indicator on the spatula is a pretty good indicator of when the wax is ready. To have a good result, you have to spread it on quite thinly and evenly, which is not easy! It does remove the hair quite well when applied properly.

The reusable strips are great and cost effective, but I do find that the hairs get stuck in the fibre and don't come out so the strips are never as clean as new.

The smell is quite weird, but not many waxes smell good! This is a much cheaper alternative to going to the salon, I find using this on my legs too much of a mission but still use it under my arms.

Wanting to wax my legs for a cheaper price than going to a salon, I bought this. I heated to the right temp, checked it with the application wand thing and got to work. I applied the wax and then the strips, pulled aaaaand basically nothing! Most of the hairs I was aiming to get rid of were still there. I was super disappointed, but I tried again. Aaaand again. And again. Still, did not work for me! I applied it exactly as the instructions said (albeit slightly more messily) to no avail. However, the instructions were simple and easy to understand and follow and the wax had a nice smell and good consistency. Don't think I'll use it again, but maybe my leg hairs just didn't like it!

I used this a few times to save money on eyebrow waxing and it worked so-so. It was quite messy and being a novice, it didn't pick up the hairs all of the time. What turned this product into a nightmare was when I took it out of the microwave and dropped it (it was crazy hot) scalding my finger! Cut to an hour later with second degree burns. While some of this is obviously my fault, I just don't think I could trust a product like this again especially when it didn't work amazingly from the start. Pass.
