Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips are not very good for money and comfort its worth every penny to get waxed professionally
just left a sticky patch and made the skin sting for about a week

good, veet wax strips hairs off fairly painlessly, but way not enough in a packet and no where near big enough strips.

I bought these Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips to give them a go 'cause I normally just shave my legs and I was getting a bit bored of that.
The instructions said to rub the strip in between your hands to warm up the wax. I'm not sure whether it was because I didn't heat up the wax enough or maybe the hair on my legs was too short, but when I pulled the strip off it left a lot of the wax on my leg. It took out about 4 hairs, at the most. That wax isn't as easy to get off as you'd think.
You're bet ...

Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips are the Worst waxing strips ever! I have dark hair and so have quite thick black hairs on my legs and thought it would be easier for the wax to pick up! Barely picked up anything! paid 10 euro for them too.

Rubbish on the legs haven't tried anywhere else - better off paying for a professional to do it I think. My legs sting I've used nearly all the Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips and there's still loads of hair left on my legs.

I am very very mad! I spent so much money on these stupid wax strips that didn't work. They didn't remove any of my hair. I will never buy something just because of a commercial again. I'll stick to shaving because at least a razor removes hair. For anyone who hasn't bought Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips yet, please don't you'll just waste your money.

I would definitely use Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips again. Despite the initial pain, once you've done it a few times, you're just used to the pain, as you would if you went to a salon to have a wax, the more times you have it done, the less it seems to hurt. I can understand that people have had problems with these. I too experienced the wax remaining on my leg, but i just reapplied the strip, and pulled it off faster. It's true, some hairs are left, but not enough to be noticed, and I just end ...

While I did find the smaller strips useful for waxing my eyebrows, bikini waxing with these strips is very painful and does not remove much hair at all. The wipes provided do not remove the wax, it sticks everywhere. When trying to wax my bikini area I ended up with small bleeding cuts on the inside of my leg. This product is expensive, given that it isn't every effective.

Didn't really work very well for me - I've read about people plucking out the remaining hairs...well, there's more left on my leg than on the strips. Also, with one strip, I pulled it off as directed, but ended up with the wax on my leg rather than on the strip.I think I'll stick to shaving/cream...although the idea of smooth legs for up to four weeks is nice, I'm not quite sure that this would give me smooth legs for four minutes...

I felt that Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips were a waste of money. I spent $14 on this seemingly useless product and it only removed a bit of my hair, I went through all 20 strips because I could only use each piece once. They say you can reuse several times if it still sticks but I find that hard to believe. I'd rather shave my legs instead I'd probably get better results anyways. The wax sticks everywhere, I had to go over it several times especially on the knees because it didn't pick up many ha ...

First time leg waxer...I thought the Veet Ready to Use Strips were AWFUL.It seemed as though I could never get the wax to warm in my hands as per the instructions. I ended up heating them with a low-heat hair dryer (not in the instructions).The first application left a sticky mess on my legs. The after waxes were not nearly as messy but at no point did any of the applications actually remove any hair.After a third shot, I am left with what appears to be bruising of some sort and red rectangle ...

Veet Ready To Use Wax Strips - (From a regular long term user of waxing products and epilator)Good: - hardly any preparation time- if you get correct temperature, removes longer (over 3mm) leg hairs- strip will stay sticky for multiple goes if you rub it tightly onto legBad:- strips are stiff = difficult on knees.- often have to go over patches repeatedly = irritated skin- leaves stubble- wax comes off strips = stays on skin, gets on hands, then everything else gets stuck to you. If you use talc ...

It seemed simple enough to do before I actually tried. Mostly what happened was that I applied the strip as per the instructions, then pulled it off, leaving the gel (which doesn't smell too nice) and all my hair still on my legs. The gel was really difficult to get off too. I tried several different things but whatever I did, the hairs weren't removed.

I used the veet bikini hair removal ... and to be honest it seemed to take a layer of skin off and leave all the hair there! determined 2 get rid of it i used a couple of strips in the same place (ouch!) and it still didn't work.... just left me as hairy as i started off! I feel as though this product was a pointless waste of time and money for me.

I think I'd buy these again. It was nice that they were mess free. At times, I found it difficult to warm the strips like they recommended. I have a few stray strands of hair on my legs, but I think they were mostly fuzzy hairs than the long ones that really show. I have fine blond hair, so it's ok for me. I don't know how well they'd work for people with really coarse, dark hair. But if you're like me, with soft, fine blond hair, I definitely recommend.

This has got to be one of the worst beauty products I have ever bought! I thought it was a complete waste of time and money. I specifically picked out the ones designed for sensitive skin, thinking it would be a lot more gentle, but after I used the product I had very sore and red skin! And to make it worst my legs were left feeling anything but smooth.. they were still stubbly and looking really horrible! I found myself going over the same patch with absolutely nothing happening but putting me ...

I found that the Veet waxing strips were an entire waste of my money. I got the bikini and under arm kit and it didn't work for either place. I have waxed once before and it worked a treat, however that was with a different product. The after feel on my skin was rough stubble which was very red and sore. I also had around 60% remaining hairs left behind. What's worse is that within 2-3 days all the hair had grown back again which I do not expect from waxing. Even the box says 4 weeks! I have als ...

I bought the Veet ready to use hair removal wax strips for use on my upper lip. (I'm dark haired so it can be pretty prominent sometimes) and I'm absolutely overjoyed by the results.I've gone through tedious years of creams and waxes trying to minimise and remove the hair, and I can safely say I've finally found what I was looking for. The wax strips are for normal skin, you get 20 strips and 4 finish wipes which moisturise and remove any left over wax. I used the strips in the pink box with the ...
