Veet Easy Wax Roll-On Electric Kit

Product Information

It takes a bit of practice to learn the best way to angle the applicator against your skin for even distribution.

I’d left my leg hair a few weeks to get it to just over 1cm and it was the ideal length to catch in the wax and come out easily. To use the Easy Wax Roll-On Kit, you just have to put the wax refill into the device, plug it into the mains (so no expensive batteries) and leave it for about twenty minutes, until the wax has melted. No pots of boiling water, microwaves or clunky equipment, just a tidy little handheld unit that does it all for you. I literally had the biggest smile ever on my face as I held the finished strip in my hand, mammal-like fuzzy from my copious amounts of leg hair, and as I looked down at my gorgeously silky smooth shin I couldn’t help but laugh triumphantly. I peeled open my strips and had them near by ready, pressing the smooth roller of the handset against my shin as I moved downwards from knee to ankle.I have to admit I was nervous as anything about doing the first strip because my first and only experience of home waxing as a teen left me petrified, and since then I’ve only ever been waxed at a salon, but not very often as I mostly shave. From that point on I could hardly contain my excitement as I stuck, rubbed, whipped and stripped both of my lower legs.

These days, I have the hair on my head pretty much under control (or so I’d like to think), but like most women, the hair on my legs is an ongoing battle. There’s something strangely therapeutic about waxing your own legs, as seeing the offending black hairs sticking to the strip afterwards is fascinating, leaving behind fresh and glowing flawless skin as it exfoliates away the dead cells too.If you are tackling underarm hair, or your bikini zone, you can use specific refills with specially designed heads, for further ease and comfort. During the winter, most of us occasionally skip shaving and cover up with opaque tights or cozy pants. The hair on my head was unruly and frizzy, and I was constantly trying to tame it with mousse, an iron (flat irons weren’t a thing yet), or a helmet of hairspray.
