Sounds like a good idea, a home, DIY, no heating required wax kit but it didn’t work.

This product sounded like a great idea. I am tiring of shaving my legs and don’t have the time to head to the local beauty salon to have my bits waxed with baby, so I spotted this in the local supermarket and decided to give it a go.

Its basically an easy to handle formed plastic tube of wax with roller, some disposable cloth strips and 2 small wipes.

You roll the wax on directly from the bottle, at room temperature, there’s no need for heating the wax. Then apply the cloth, whisk off and the hairs should come out too. It all sounded so easy and so efficient.

The packaging claims you can use it on hair with just a week’s growth. I tried it after a week without shaving and it removed no hairs. I waited another week and it removed a few. I don’t think I’m abnormal in the rate of growth of hairs on my legs but I found this product totally ineffectual. I tried and tried, applying less wax, applying more wax, pressing down on the strips, removing them more slowly, more quickly, at different angles. All to no avail.

Eventually the cloth strips ran out and my legs were still hairy.

A very disappointing product which I won’t bother buying again.
