In an attempt to curb spending (and given the difficulty of getting to my beautician with a toddler and a newborn) I'm thinking of starting to wax my legs myself.
Can anyone recommend a good at-home product?
I recall seeing one advertised on tv lately that looked pretty good and had wax cartridge type things that it used - I think it was one you plug in so would be a warm wax? Can't remember the name though.
I have tried all the microwaveable waxes you get in the supermarket ie. nads, veet, nair and find them all effective. However I find the time required to wax at home is longer so prefer a professional wax now that it is easier to get out. But wirh 2 littlies, DIY should work for you. I got a tub of veet gel wax for $6 in our local crazy Clarks. I thought it would be hopeless for $6 but is really good.
$6 is good. I found nads good for eyebrows, but legs- I can't inflict that kinda pain on myself :lol:
Best of luck ;)
Bumping - any more advice? Or are we the only crazy ones waxing our own legs?!?
I brought the plug in one with the replaceable cartridges & hated it! The wax wouldn't go on to my skin properly & in the end I contacted the company & sent it back for full refund.
I have used the (I think veet) strips before that you warm by rubbing your hands together & found them easy to use while sitting in front of the tv :)
Ok so woolies has the Nair ones on sale so I've ordered two different types of strip wax for about $7 a packet. Home delivery is tomorrow so might give them a go in the arvo. Ha what an exciting life I lead...
I've used the veet strips before and they worked fine. Only problem was that I put the used strips next to me then our long haired cat came and sat next to me too :/
