Gigi Wax Strips for Hair Removal – 12 Facial Wax Strips for Women with Post Epilation Lotion, At Home Waxing Kit

These are so easy to use. I warm them up by rubbing a strip between my hands or use a blow dryer. It’s perfect for removing peach fuzz off my upper lip and between the eyebrows. It’s not as great for the arches because the wax isn’t neat around the edges, but if you use scissors to shape it the way you want it could work. It doesn’t work as well on harder hair, it’s more for fine hair. The lotion is also nice to use after waxing and it doesn’t have an over powering scent.

Really like these! I have fairly sensitive acne prone skin in my T-zone, and have to be careful with hair removal methods as they have led to rashes and ingrown hairs in the past. Some other strips I have used literally took off a layer of skin, hair removal lotion gave me chemical burns. These are sticky but light enough to just grab the hair and not rip your face off. I have mostly fine hair/long peach fuzz, but I do have some thick hairs that have shown up on my chin and around my mouth as I creep closer to 40. As long as the hair is long enough these do a great job getting 98% of them. If you wax too often the hairs won't be long enough for the wax to grip. Some hairs will be left behind with any strips you use-hairs don't all grow to the same length at the same angle. I just spend a minute or two plucking the remainder, usually the thicker ones, and then apply the lotion and I am good to go! I have acne prone skin but the lotion does not seem to clog my pores. If you are worried about it wash your face and go over it with some toner a few hours after waxing or before bed to make sure no dirt gets sealed in by the lotion. The strips are more effective when the wax is loosened up, rub the strip between your hands before using so the wax gets warm and pliable. You will definitely want to do this if you live in a colder climate like I do-it makes a huge difference.

First off, I am a HUGE fan of the GiGi wax system; however, I am moving so it's packed away and I was looking for a quick easy solution so knowing how I like my typical product I was hands down convinced this would be decent. However, I used the entire box and it barely removed any hair at all. I tried my upper lip, chin, the side of my face, under my lip, etc. It took a few of the hairs off but maybe 10% of them from each of the areas. I've been waxing with GiGi for years and I have no problems typically. This definintely is easy to use, it's gentle, but it doesn't do what it's supposed to. Unfortunately, I'm back to the drawing board until I move and unpack my wax pot. Womp womp.

I'm too cheap to pay someone to wax my brows, so I have been using these wax strips for a long time. They're pretty easy to use, and they do a nice job of removing hair. Every now and again one of the strips is a little light on the wax, but overall I am pleased with the product. Just be careful that you don't get the strip on hair that you want to remain on your face - the strips will pull out any hair in its path! Good value for the money.

Convenient strips but they are smaller than other products. The wax doesn’t grip the hair well so stubborn or more coarse hair don’t always get pulled out. Plus side is that the poor grip means the skin isn’t as irritated after use. The after care lotion is a tube instead of individual packets which is great, but it does not help with removing sticky wax residue. Overall, I would buy again because it is great on my sensitive skin.

Works just fine on the upper lip area, but had no success with my chin. My hair wasn’t too thick or too long there, it just didn’t work well. Even when following the instructions, all it did was coat the hair in wax and make it easier to tweeze, but didn’t come off on the waxing strip.

I love this product. Only wish I would have found it sooner. It is simple and easy to use. My skin is sensitive and it gets less red and irritated with this method than going to the salon. I do suggest that for some areas under the brow, to take the wax strip BEFORE you peel it apart and cut it in half. For me it was easier to get the curved areas and control the hair removal area better. If you are new to waxing it might take a bit of a learning curve while using this but the product itself is awesome.

I've been using these for two years and they work great! My hair is pretty fine, so can't comment on how it removes thicker hair, but here are some tips (all written in the detailed instructions that come with it): 1. Do this after a shower, dry your face well. 2. Make sure you warm the wax strips by rubbing them between your palms for a little. 3. Make sure you pull off the strip exactly as explained in the instructions (from mouth end towards middle if mouth, and do not pull away from skin but level with skin). 4. Remove any hair still left with pincers--any hair left should come off really easily now. 5. I like to do a quick wipe with hydrogen peroxide for good measure. 6. Apply the included Post Epilation Lotion vigorously--this will calm your skin.

Most of the time these work well. For some reason sometimes they are a bit gooey and only leave a sticky film on my lip. I do clean and powder on my face for lip and eyebrows to ensure the skin doesn't redden too much

Love these. They don't make me break out like other brands. Update, changed my rating to three stars for the price. Way too expensive for what you get. I didn't pay what they are charging now. I'm sick of all the price increases on everything.

I did not like. Item looks old and stain. I might have gotten one of expired. The papers are stuck together. The wax remains on the face, hair does not removes. Sticky face after using. Not satisfied at all.
