Appalling product. Do not buy. Wax stays on skin when you pull the strip and no hair comes out. It leaves a mess on your skin that takes great effort to get off. Had to use oil to get wax off. Not water soluble. Very sticky. Damaged my skin, left bruises. Retailers should refuse to stock it. Do Not Buy. Show details

Not very useful unfortunately – It doesn’t work. I have used two different types, the blue pack and the green pack. I end up with so much hair left on my legs and need to puck those out by hand. Also there is only one tissue to wipe the residue off and it gets gross, you need to keep it for the next times. The strips are plastic and can not be recycled. I had high hopes for this product. I give two points because it did remove some hair.

Waste of money – Doesnt remove course hair, brings them out visually. Still need to pluck. 20 mini wax strip's and a small after care wipe. Don't even bother seriously just expensive and nasty. Product should not be sold. Product is trash Show details

Complete rubbish – Do not waste your money on this useless product. They just leave wax all over your face and pull no hairs out whatsoever. Save your money and buy a decent wax strip Show details

GREAT PRODUCT – Waxaway wax strips are great for fine hair... No need to heat up..just use straight out of the box... Always removes all unwanted hair and you can use the strip more than once which is great compared to other wax strips.... it does leave a bit of wax on skin but just use the post waxing wipe to remove it...very easy & convenient... highly recommend Show details

Never Again! – This is by far the absolute worst product for hair removal I have ever used. The wax stayed on my leg the plastic came off! Even hot water doesn't remove it. I had to scrape off with my nails. Never again would I use this or recommend to anyone. This should be banned from stores, Show details

Dreadful – These strips are not at all effective for removing hair from anywhere. They do not stick to grab the hair for removal, hence completely useless. I will be returning to my trusted Veet warm wax.

Amazing product! – I decided to try this product for the first time. I have used the hot wax before. I was very impressed with how well it worked easy and non messy. If you want something quick and easy to use,this the product! Will definetely buy it again!!!! P.s I liked the after oil wipe.

Left with cuts and scars – I used the facial hair remover one... which removes hair so quickly on just one time and also removes the skin as well... I left with cuts and scars... tried 3 times and got the worst cuts every time

Easy to use! Works perfectly – I used the Waxaway body strips and they were so easy to use. A quick look at the instructions and then I warmed them up between my hands. They peeled apart easily and then in no time I was done. I used each strip 2 or 3 times before having to switch but my legs were quite hairy at the time. The little bit of wax residue left wiped up with the aftercare wipe without a problem. I would recommend trying these strips.

Disappointing! – I bought these to use for waxing my bikini line for an upcoming school swimming event and was terribly disappointed. I paid close detail to the preparation and directions and followed exactly. The result was awful, the wax strips not only left heaps of sticky residue on my skin, but also did not take any hairs! I tried using one of the strips on… Read more

my leg to see if the results differed but was only disappointed when the same thing happened. I will never waste my money on these strips again, very upset.

Never again! – I will NEVER buy this product again. It's too sticky, leaves heaps of wax on the skin & sadly even the hair. And just 1 afterwaxingoilsachet others have 4! Don't buy this product.

Just awful – I found these strips terrible to use! The wax often came away from the backing and stayed on my leg! Nightmare! It would take several goes to get all the wax off and then my skin was sore as a result. Would never buy again!

Will never buy again!!! – After trying many different waxing products on my twelve year old daughter wax away was the last and I'll definitely not be using it again! It caused pimples on her legs the size of 5 cent coin they were filled pus We waited a day to see if they'd settle when they got worse I took her to the doctor. Thanks to your product they are seriously… Read more

Didn't live up to my expectations – This was always left wax on my skin after I used it and it would stay on there for about a week and be really itchy and it only comes with one wipe to get rid of the left over wax, which clearly wasn't enough and it didn't get all the hairs off when I used it. Not impressed with this product.

Rubbish – I found the strips sometimes ripped and didn't get all the hairs so pain for nothing. And left a lot of sticky residue which was hard to get off even with the oil wipes. Not as good as Veet which I've never had any problems with.

This is perfect! However leaves too much residue – This is good and easy to use, it takes off so much hair in just one go and afterwards your skin is feeling smooth. And you could use one strip many times, also takes off hair as small as 1 mm. I like how convenience it is, rather than needing to do hot wax etc. The only concern and problem i keep having is that it leaves too much residue and it… Read more

doesn't come off with neither water or the wax removal oil. Other then it leaving your legs sometimes sticky, it is good and would recommend to all. Easy to use and removes a great deal of hair on one single strip and that strip can be used numerous of times. leaves residue and if you don't rub the wax strip before opening the wax won't evenly spread onto both sheets.

Won't use anything else – Wax away strips are just the best for my hair removal. I have ultra sensitive skin which I can't use any products such as Veet because the simply burn my skin,similar to hot wax. The wax away strips are so simple and not at all messy to use,they also usually come with wax away oil wipes. Therefore to clean up any left residue. I have never broken… Read more

out or received ingrown hairs. They are very gentle on your facial hair and simple to use. Even my 21 year old and 16 year old daughters can use them. They have actually even put them to the test on their brother and their boyfriends(hairy necks & shoulders). Very convent for travelling to,just pop them into my beauty case. Safe,inexpensive and easy to use. Sometimes if not kept in a dark cool place it melts too quickly. A durable flat container would be great for travelling.

OK – These are great for in between waxes or If your not keen on heating up wax. Not as good as Veet, but it does the job! A great cheaper alternative. If they changed it from the plastic to something else it would make it alot easier to use. Readily available from Priceline, Chemists and some supermarkets, and department stores such as Big W & Target.… Read more

Easy to use. The slippery plastic can be annoying instead of the other fabric usually used on other brands

Excellent – Very convenient waxing, work well for underarms and legs. Inexpensive to purchase, can get 2-3 uses from one strip depending on how thick the hair is. Easy to use, great to travel with, no mess or fuss. Best of any ready wax strips I have tried. Don't remove as many of the finer hairs as, eg, a professional wax or using hard wax.

OK – Pretty good product. Nice and convenient especially when travelling so you dont have to heat up. The price is pretty good - much cheaper than getting waxing done professionally. This would be an awesome product if they improced their after wax strips. Nice and convenient and relatively easy to use. The frangrance isn't too bad. Not a bad… Read more

price compared to other wax strips on the market. I don't really like the clean up strips. I find other brands have better ones. In this case I just used a cotton ball with some of my baby oil. It worked a treat.

Good – i have used nair for the last few years and found this strips were alot cleaner and easier to use. The strips are already to use which is very handy when you have a busy lifestyle

Good – I prefer to use the hot waxes more, in my opinion they seem to work better. The stipes are relatively cheap and because they are ready to use they are easy to take a long with you to do touch up whilst holidaying. I like how you can cut the strips to the desired lenght. I like how it is ready to use, you don't have to heat it or make many… Read more

preparations. It has a tendency to leave behind a bit of wax residue which is difficult to take off. Water does not take it off so you should make sure you alos have a product that will remove it.

Excellent – Waxaway strips are really easy to use. You don't have to heat them up or anything, just pull them apart and go. They come in all sizes which is great. The only thing is that the after waxing satchet is practically paper with oil, I would reccommends using another brand's after-was towels. They're really easy to use, all the other wax strips i've… Read more

used you have to warm them up by rubbing them in between your hands, but for Waxaway I don't. They remove hair easily, smell nice and even look nice! I like the packaging a lot. The after wax satchet is just like paper that has been drenched in oil, there are other companies with much nicer presented satchets.

Excellent – Very quick and very easy to use. In the cooler weather it is advisable to rub the strip between your hands prior to separating so there is an even amount of wax on each strip. I bought the antibacterial After Waxing Oil with this as well because any residue left does not wash off in water. Do not even try! However, if you rub the strip on the… Read more

skin and then pull back very quickly in the opposite direction to hair growth, you shouldn't be left with much, if any residue at all. These are great strips, and I use them in between visits to the salon. Very quick and so easy to use, no preparation required. Really good for underarms, legs and bikini line. You can cut these strips to size and they come in a size for the face as well as the body. I love that there is no heating or preparation required! Residue doesn't wash off in water.

Excellent – We used to use the microwaveable pots of wax that you apply with a stick and rip off with, they are still our first choice even though they are alot messier than these strips they do seem to work better.I like the prewaxed strips for upperlip hair removal and also because you can take them with you when your on holiday. The fact that the strips… Read more

are all ready to use makes it ideal for holidays away where a touch up is needed.Price is good and its easy to get at priceline etc Not as effective as the pot of wax that you heat and apply then remove with cloth strips.
