Facial Wax Strips Reviews

I waxed my upper lip with these last night. I feel I used it exactly how the instructions said but feel like I must have done something as people have said it can cause redness and a bit of after pain but mine has been horrible. I had to ice it all last night and has woken up and it is just as red and sore. I have an event later and I’ve tested covering it with make up and it looks so bad and made me realise is actually taken some skin in place with it. I’m really not sure what I could have done wrong, I’m a waxer so it’s not my first time just first time with these ones. It’s too painful and ugly I won’t even give another try to see if it was just a once off.. OUCH!!!

I'm afraid to say I'm not a fan of this product, not one bit :( I used some on my eyebrows and it really hurts in comparison to something like hard wax. It can be difficult to use for a beginner and I actually waxed half my eyebrow off owies! I then read the fine print on the packaging to see what I might be doing wrong, turn though these are facial wax strips they are not suitable for eyebrows????

Yes, it is my bad I should have read the instructions on the packets properly before applying it but I do wonder how many people will pick something like this up from the supermarket shelf and think that it's NOT suitable for brows?

That's not the worse of it though, the after care wipes though they do remove the residue it caused me to break out real bad so if you're pimply like me I'd suggest wiping it away with water and avoiding the wipes all together. I'm giving this two star because although it's as painful as hell it did do it's job of removing hairs and quite effectively too! I'm half a eyebrow-less after all hahaha.

I love these wax strips, I use them to get rid of my upper lip hair. I have very fine hair, and, after warming the strips between my palms, I'm able to quickly remove all the hairs effectively, with no snapping of hairs as I've experienced with other brands of wax strips. I love the no mess format of these strips, there is no hot wax to drip all over the bathroom, and all you have to do is throw away the strips once you are done. I rarely get any wax residue stuck to my skin, but if I do it comes off easily with a bit of rosehip facial oil.

My mum gave me a pack of the Nads sensitive facial strips to try and save me some money instead of having to go to salons for eyebrows and lip waxing.
Never follow your mothers advice on how to use the strips!

You simply warm the strips between your hands for a few minutes,
seperate them,
then rip off in the opposite direction to your hair growth.
There is enough space at each end of the strips to firmly grab hold without getting wax on your fingers. Any residue left on my face I reapply the strip and pull off again.
In the pack are some after care wipes that will remove any stickyness left over.

I find the Nads strips to be the most effective in home hair removal brand and also the one with the least irritation to sensitive skin.

I have been a loyal another brand wax strip user but a friend recommended this one. Nads strip are good quality they don't tear while pulling them apart or from the skin.
Doesn't have any strong smell and does a good job. I have dark coloured hair and it still did similar job to the other brand I used. I used it for my hands and legs. It is super convenient, affordable and handy to use anywhere.
I tell all my friends that waxing is way better than shaving!
Anyone who hasn't tried it yet should do.
Regrowth hair is much finer and softer.

Ive got sensitive skin when it comes to skincare products and have been wary to use this because of this. But after reading some reviews online it feels like it was worth a try and yes it was fine to use for my facial skin.

The product worked well, removed all my unwanted hair easily and didnt give me any irritations or rashes etc. The after wipes were great, not sure if it really did soothe as my skin wasnt irritated to start with.

I have sensitive skin when it comes to hair removal, but these Nad's Facial Wax Strips do an excellent job.
I cut them in half, they are so flexible and easy to fit to the curves of my face. I only use them on my upper lip.
I love the woven fabric feel, which distributes the wax effectively and makes the strips easy to grip for removal.

They are hypoallergenic, so my skin doesn't have any adverse reaction, apart from a little initial redness, which quickly fades.
The inclusion of the calming swipes are a great addition in the pack.

I use the Nads facial wax strips on the regular to remove my unwanted facial hair. The strips are made of white fabric and the wax is an even layer of pale green. I usually cut the strips to better fit my upper lips and chin area. I warm the wax strip between my hands, peel the strip off and apply is to my upper lip. I make sure to press the strip down firmly and than I peel the wax strip off.

The wax strip usually takes off my unwanted hair. Sometimes I do have to go over the same area twice to take off any stray hairs. After waxing I apply the post wax calming oil wipes included in the wax kit. It soothes and calms the waxed area and I find my skin isn't as red or irritate afterwards.

This product is absolutely great!

It's hypoallergenic, so good for sensitive skin; however, always do the24 hour skin test recommended on the packet. There’s no perfume, so if one doesn't like strong fragrances, then this is absolutely ideal!

Quick and easy to use – no mess, no fuss.Just make sure skin is free of makeup, dry and free of oils and moisturisers and hair is 2 to 5 mm long.

Strips can be used on all areas of the face and body and will even remove a few stray hairs on the legs, but doesn’t tend to work too well on coarse hair.

It's also very economical, as one strip can be used more than once, but again, this depends on the amount of hair to be removed, coarseness etc, considering the strips are only small.
