I wanted to get this when it first came out, but I never got around to it because I read a lot of negative reviews about it on the boots website. Now it is half price for £14.99 so I thought I should get my hands on it, So I did! I don't go to a salon for waxing as I have a waxing kit at home and I have been using it for about 2 years now. But it can get messy, sticky etc so I thought I would try this product.
There are only 2 flaws about it, on the kit it says it warms up in 20 minutes, but It needs about 35-40 minutes to warm up. When you are using it the wax can again start to dry up so you need to heat it again. But what I did was I didn't take the wire off. I took it off only when it came in my way, this way the wax didn't dry up and I didn't have to wait longer. Second fault it that the cartridge is very expensive. its £9.99 for each cartridge, for my home wax I get one pot for that much and it lasts me about 4 sessions (for arms, legs and underarms). With one cartridge that I got with the kit I waxed my legs, arms and my mum's arms and I still have about a quarter left which I think will be enough for my arms only. So as it says on the packet that 1 cartridge=4 wax sessions that isn't true.
Despite of those two facts I still love it. It is mess free, easy, quick way of waxing. If you know how to wax then it should be a piece of cake for you, however if you have never waxed yourself it can be tricky. How I use it is I apply it in small sections, in length a little shorter than the strips I use. If you apply the wax first to the whole leg or arm and then start to wax off then it will be difficult and can get messy and annoying. With the home wax or salon wax sometimes layers of skin can come off because its either too warm or gets too thick in some areas, but this one is smooth, applies even and doesn't take skin layers off. Also all the wax comes off and doesn't leave me feeling sticky.
For me 12 wax strips they gave are enough as I don't use many strips, but again if you are new with waxing then they might not be enough. Inside they also give 4 finishing wipes which are oil based and smell so good and makes skin smooth and takes all the remaining stickiness off.
In conclusion, I love this product guys and I am very happy with it and it is cheaper than getting waxed at a salon. The results will last the same amount as getting waxed any other way. Sorry for writing such a long essay hope didn't bore you guys :)
Let us know if you have tried it or would like to try it and what you think of it! :)
