Convenient, effective and a lot of strips! I don't use anything else. These are not messy at all.

I use the big ones for my face too, just use scissors to cut the right shape. Make sure you leave an "edge" to grab hold of without having to get your hands sticky. Once you place it on, rub it 2-3 times, no more, and then pull against the grain. If you rub more than 3 times, the honey can get soft.

Update:

Years later I still use this stuff! I read some other reviews on this product. You really have to pull fast enough and make sure you're pulling the right direction. That is key. I've used these on my really thick pubic hairs (yes TMI, I know) as well as fine facial hair and it works. If you're wondering if you're pulling the right direction: your fingers should be closest to the end of the hair and farthest from the root. When you pull you should NOT pull UP (perpendicular to your skin) you have to pull in a direction that is PARALLEL to your skin. And pull very quickly.

My sister recommended this product awhile back and I just didn't believe it could work. Boy was I wrong. The strips (clear, plastic strips)are prewaxed and stuck together so all you have to do is warm the strip against your skin (I put the wax strip against my stomach and place my hand over it) and tear them apart, then place the strip where you want hair removed, yank it off (against the way the hair grows) and viola the hair is gone. You just throw away the used strip once you are done with it. There is no mess and no fuss. It does get most of the hairs you want removed too. I have used this for a year now and absolutely love it and highly recommend it. You can get this at Ulta which is where I get mine.

Bought this on a whim to try waxing my legs (something which I'd never done before at home OR at a salon). It's been a week and my legs are still perfectly smooth, compared to the stubbled nightmare they usually are a week after shaving.

Pros

No microwaving means that it was super easy and not very messy

Only a handful of stray hair didn't get grabbed, probably because they were to short

Actually not that painful, which I was worried about since I have sensitive skin

Was able to use each strip 2 or 3 times, and cut them for better placing in some spots

Cons

Some wax residue, but it was easily cleaned up with a bit of baby oil and a couple cotton balls

Had to go over a few areas multiple times, but that's not entirely the wax's fault--some of the hair grows in odd directions

Overall, I'm really happy with this product and will definitely purchase again when my first 3 boxes run out! ;-)

Honest reviews on Surgi-wax Honey Wax Strips For Bikini, Body & Legs, 14 Double Sided

These do not pull out all the hairs on the leg, make sure you don't leave the strips on too long, or not long enough. It depends on the temperature. You can also reuse them, especially if you aren't too hairy like me. They also work fantastic on the armpits, and I'm noticing my hair regrowth is slowing down. Place the strips in the direction of the hair growth and pull out against the hair growth. You may have to try multiple times as my hair growth isn't the same direction. Tried on bikini line, works OK I recommend the Brazilian hot wax for that.

I bought the Bikini, Body & Legs honey wax strips at Ulta. There are 14 double sided strips, giving you a total of 28 strips. It is a bit painful when you rip them off but the pain quickly subsides. I used the strips only on by upper legs (above the knee); I did it in 4 days because it was sticky, a bit painful and time consuming. After using all 28 strips my upper legs still have some hair on it. The strips were not consistent in taking alot of hair off, sometimes they would pull alot other times barely any hair would come off, I would try to reuse the strips again in another spot but it would only take a couple hairs if any off. I followed the directions, warming them between my hands for a few seconds, smooth on in the direction of hair growth and tear off in opposite direction; I even went over some areas in different directions because not all the hair grew in one direction. Never got the result I had hoped for... smooth legs. This product I believe would work well if you were doing an upper lip or under the arms but not a large area. I had let my hair growth on the leg to 1/2 an inch and even experimented on my lower leg with one strip which was at 1/4 inch of hair growth but the results were no better. Gave it 3 stars because it sort of worked but not the best results, and because you may be happy if you used it in a small area but you would probably need a couple applications over the same spot. Also some of the stips would get sticky on my legs, did not wash off with soap and water, I found that after an hour or two it would just disappear on it's own, don't do this just before you intend to go out on for a fancy occassion you will not be happy, it needs sometime to work with and unstick itself so it does not stick to your clothes.
