The festive season is around and we all want to look our best. Three cheers for the salons which are already jam-packed with ladies. So this has led us to try out some stuff ourselves at home.To avoid the hustle and to waste no time waiting for your turn in the salon.
For me, removing body hair is the cruelest necessity. While I can let them grow most of the times as body hair is natural and one shouldn’t be embarrassed by them, but when you have a party and you wearing an LBD, they aren’t adding to your beauty. LOL.
There are a few methods of hair removal like Wax, Shave, Hair removal creams, Laser, Tweeze, Thread etc. All the methods have their own pros and cons. Which of these methods is more effective is a whole another debatable topic. We want something which works fast and delays the hair growth for a longer time. Waxing can delay the hair growth but shaving is a much faster process. How about getting the best of both worlds? Veet Instant Waxing Kit For Dry Skin make it easy and convenient to remove body hair. So here’s a review of the same.

My experience with Veet Instant Waxing Kit For Dry Skin
I used it for the first time over my arms. The results are amazing.It works well for the really tiny hair too. Yet, if the hair is dense then it might not wipe out all the hair with the first pull. You need to do it at least twice or thrice for complete results. The product is available in 2 other variants.
1) Shea butter & Berry for normal skin
2) Vitamin E & Almond Oil for sensitive skin.
I wanted the one for sensitive skin but that wasn’t available on the market so I took this one and it worked fine. Always remember to do a patch test, which I did, before using the wax strips as we all have different skin types and what works for me might not work for you. I even used it for clearing my upper and lower lip hair which is much thinner than the normal body hair. Though the wax strips are only suggested to be used for removing body hair only. I did it because threading hurts like hell. This method is less painful. The wipes too are pretty good. They leave your skin look smooth and shiny.
Recommend/Repurchase?
Yes, I would definitely recommend this product. It has made removing body hair hassle free and a lot less painful. Also, the skin stays smooth for at least 2 weeks. I am in all praise for this product. Would love to buy it again.

This is a good product but needs a little bit of skill to do the sensitive areas like underarms. I once tried this one on my underarms. Sadly, I did not pull it correctly and the result was awful. I got cuts everywhere plus blood clotting under the skin. The scar is still there after 5-6 years! But, at the same time, a friend of mine sings its praise all the time. It worked out really well for her; better than even salons :haanji
That’s bad…nothing as such happened to me or my friends who used it. Did you do the patch test beforehand?
No I did not 🙁 The wax did not irritate my skin, it was the process of pulling ruined everything!!
It did not work for me either..
It’s very hard to pull it yourself?
Hey Juhi. Initially, I too was a bit scared as it was my first time but surprisingly it didn’t hurt much as compared to threading. I have thick dense hair. But Not everything works for everybody. If it pains and you think it is not worth it, then go for shaving. It’s easy! 🙂
I’m confused seeing mixed responses. But nice review
thanks!
well i have used the sensitive skin one too and i think it works if you want to wax areas like your legs but you might need a companion or maybe call your mom for assistance if you want to wax the arms and such for better results
