    star rating

    It’s time to get those legs ready for the summer ahead! Veet Easy-Gel™ Legs Wax Strips make it easy to achieve smooth, hair-free legs with minimum fuss.

    Veet Easy-Gel™ Legs Wax Strips for Normal Skin:

    • Gel formula with Easy-Gel™ wax technology that flows around and actively grips the shortest hairs (1.5mm), not the skin
    • Removes the hairs from the root, for long lasting smoothness
    • Achieve great results from the very first time (even for those inexperienced with wax strips)
    • Formulated with a touch of shea butter and acai berries scent
    • Available in packs of 20 along with two Perfect Finish wipes

    Achieve great results in just four easy steps:

    1. Carefully peel the strips apart using the outwards rounded tabs.
    2. Apply one strip to your skin in the direction of hair growth. Rub a few times in the direction your hair grows to make sure the wax adheres well.
    3. Hold your skin taut. Grasp the tab, and pull the strip back on itself as quickly as you can, against the direction the hair grows. Pull the strip back in one swift motion, close to the skin rather than away from it.
    4. After waxing, clean away any wax left on your skin with a Perfect Finish wipe.

      I tried the Veet easygel legs waxing strips last night and I must say they were so easy and convenient to use and now my legs feel so soft. I would definately purchase them next time im at the supermarket 🙂

      Thanks for the opportunity to try the Veet Easy-Gel leg wax strips!
      I had been cultivating my leg garden for quite a while so was really looking forward to/slightly apprehensive about this!
      Firstly, product packaging is nice. I was confused that there was no instruction leaflet inside but then noticed all the info was printed down the thin sides of the box.
      The strips peeled apart easily without having to warm with my hands – I know that from past experience this can make them TOO soft – and they smelled really good!
      Easy to apply, and get a good grip on round edge of the strip for pulling off.
      It still hurt just as much as any other waxing I’ve had done, despite the packaging giving the impression that it would hurt less as the wax grips the hair only and not the skin. I’m not sure you’ll ever be able to do anything about the pain side of waxing.
      Despite my extreme hairiness, I was surprised that each strip was effective for 4-5 applications. I had initially worried there may not be enough in the whole box for my legs in the state they were in!
      It did get a bit sticky with some residue left on my legs and I managed to get it on my hands too.
      I didn’t think the two little wipes would be enough for clean up, but they did the trick (had run quite firmly several times) and left a lovely sheen on my skin.
      Despite the sensitive skin claim, I still broke out in a welty raised rash, just as I usually do for salon waxes.
      Bit tricky doing this yourself. Undecided if I’d buy these or just pay the extra to go to a salon. If they lived up to my sensitive skin claim expectations I’d probably buy them.

      Great product! So easy to use very gentle on the skin. Left my legs smooth and didn’t leave any wax behind. Will absolutely be purchasing again

    4. Stepanka 17/11/2020 at 9:37 pm

      Believe or not… but this was the first time I used wax! So I didn’t really know how I’d handle it :). To start with packaging, I do like it. Nice bright colours and lettering, to catch people’s attention. The strips are easy to peel apart. The smell is really nice & pleasant. I found it little bit tricky to apply or more like make it smooth but that’s probably because I haven’t done that before :). To peel this off, I think the first time I went little bit too slow but I learnt my lesson, and used much faster movement times after :). It was little bit painful but hey… I knew that! My skin is very sensitive but I did not react to this at all, and also 5 days after and I can hardly feel any new hair growing yet! Fantastic! A definitive win for me. I will for sure buy in future, I’m sure I’ll master how to use these in very near future. Thank you.

      I love these wax strips. As it was it was my 1st time I was a tad nervous but once I work out what I was doing it it was easy and didn’t even hurt. Will be buying these next time.

    6. Chompy101 17/11/2020 at 6:57 pm

      I tried these wax strips and I really struggled to use them as my leg hairs are definitely not long enough to wax but they needed this review done. So overall they smell really good but they are really hard to use with short hairs. It would be really good when the hairs grow longer they will be really worth it. I found the wipes to use afterwards were hard to use they didn’t get rid of the left over stickiness overall these would be great.

    7. rachaelsfun 17/11/2020 at 10:47 am

      Loved it hadnt used a wax much before but was easy and fast and pretty much painless and great results 🙂 def recommend used the cream in the past and its been the best brand 🙂

      great for beginners too no mess no fuss and pretty painless too and left a great smell (photos to come)

    8. Helenmareexx 17/11/2020 at 9:44 am

      It doesn’t get much easier!!!! These straps are so blimin good and so insanely fast and easy to use. I have super sensitive legs, so much so I cannot shave without getting the worst razor rash. But these left no rash, no irritation and no headache haha!
      Love the size of these too and the shape with the wide rounded top so they are easy to rip. Definitely getting these again. Awesome, yay, hello summer legs

    9. Krystie 17/11/2020 at 7:47 am

      Thanks kidspot for the chance to review this product!

      I was really excited to try this product. Pre children I waxed but since kids (due to lack of time) I’ve been shaving. I’ve never tried an at home wax product so was interested to see whether it worked!

      First thoughts on the strips were they were the packaging was pretty and they smelt nice! Unfortunately I had very mixed results… We initially tried one strip on my partners leg and it worked brilliantly! Smooth as a baby bums! I spent the next 2 weeks growing out my leg hairs until I was sure they were long enough to wax successfully. The box says minimum of 1.5mm so I made sure mine were well above that. The first problem I had was applying the strip smoothly. I probably didn’t think it through well enough and applied the strip down the centre of my leg midway between my knee and ankle. I have very bony lower legs and so found I was unable to get the strip to apply smoothly. I rubbed it in as best I could and then tore it away. It definitely took some of the hairs but it also left about the same amount and also left bits of wax on my leg too. The next strip I used was on my calf muscle and this time it went on much smoother but still left as many hairs as it took. Repeated attempts yielded the same results. It may be as I have very fine hairs but I was expecting better results.

      Overall I would give this product a 6/10. On the plus side it smells lovely, I don’t seem to have any ingrown hairs and it definitely removed some hair. However, on the flip side it left wax behind, didn’t remove the majority of the hair, and was difficult to apply smoothly.

      Soooo I haven’t waxed my legs for years, but my Mum taught me when I was a teenager. Now I’m 34 and man Veet Wax Strips are so much better than they used to be!
      I had to grow out my previously shaven leg hairs abit but it’s true only 1.5mm is enough for these wax strips to grip!
      I did a trial last week and I decided having a bath and having nice soft legs first would help get a better result. (It also made waxing my legs feel like such a nice pampering thing to do! Definitely a good idea for a mumma of 5!)
      It was a good plan and I found the Veet wax strips worked a treat. It was so much cleaner and simpler than I expected, but as I’m a wuss I did watch YouTube to distract myself a little as it is a tiny bit ouchy.
      The instructions are simple and it’s so straightforward and a great product that I expect to buy again. I’m looking forward to less bristly legs!
      Bring on summer! Thanks Veet and Kidspot for the trial!

    11. Emberruby 16/11/2020 at 8:46 pm

      So happy to trial this product out, this has left my legs feeling super smooth. After a few days I thought my legs would become dry as usually they dry out from shaving and other hair remover products. So I very happy with the end results, would definitely buy and recommend as its ideal for sensitive skin.

    12. jeniplatt 16/11/2020 at 8:24 pm

      I am usually so scared of wax strips – all pain and little gain but these strips were great.
      They had minimal pain and very effective.
      very easy to use and easy instructions to follow.
      definitely worth the money and lasts far longer.
      Awesome product
      attractive packaging too

    13. Girlzcurlz 16/11/2020 at 7:55 pm

      Thank you for the opportunity to use this product. To be honest I struggled with the strips. Firstly they smelt wonderful! I found them really sticky and ended up with really sticky fingers at the end but maybe it’s just my inexperience. Easy instructions but I found them quite painful even after several goes at it. The first time hardly any hairs came out so I waited for the pain to subside then had another go. Was more successful but still hurt and for a reasonable time after so only ended up doing part of my leg. I tried again the following day but still feel this was working for me. Thy left my leg and fingers sticky so I opened my wipe and it was small and very dry hardly any moisture it at all and didn’t take off the stickiness. Maybe it was a one off dry wipe? The next day my patch of waxed leg felt lovely and smooth and lasted like that all week. The hairs are starting to come back but way softer and slower. After all that I may give this another go as the result is good if you have the time and can persevere with the pain. Maybe it will get easier? I probably wouldn’t buy them again but I am keen to finish this pack.

    14. Sdunkley 16/11/2020 at 7:20 pm

      I was super excited to be selected to review the Veet Easy Gel wax strips, I have tried lots of hair removal products before but always went back to the trusty razor! Buuut these are awesome, I tried these on one leg and razor on the other and the wax side lasted soooo much longer! The pack was enough to do both full legs and was a little painful, but nothing outrageous, the only issue I had was getting rid of the residue, I found it a bit sticky and the wipes didn’t really clean it all off properly, aside from that, definitely recommend this product!

    15. jessiecressie 16/11/2020 at 6:32 pm

      I’m a 1st time wax user and have to say, apart from the fact that it hurts , my hairs are still yet to start growing back a week after . these wax strips are very easy to use and smell delish!

    16. Missmel123 16/11/2020 at 5:22 pm

      What a great product
      So easy to use , I think next time I need to let the hairs grow longer but these were so easy to use. I’ve only ever waxed once before with hot wax and these hurt way less and much less mess
      100% recommend these for convenience and easy of use

    17. Hina 16/11/2020 at 4:26 pm

      I am so glad I got selected for this. Its been a while since I have been to beauty salons to get waxing done as I have pretty high growth on my legs and I always feel I am being made fun off by waxing ladies so out of sheer embarrassment I stopped going. I would occasion shave / cream them off but not regularly. Using this reminded me how good it feels and how it boosts your self confidence not having to hide that weird patch of hair sneaking out from under your trouser. And shaving normally gives me half removed hair and never the smooth feel

    18. Arna.williams 16/11/2020 at 4:20 pm

      Thank you for the opportunity to review this product.

      It was my first time using at home wax strips and I found them very easy to use. I love that the wax doesn’t get stuck to your leg!
      I think for an at home product these are great, although I had trouble getting some of the shorter hairs off so didn’t feel like my legs were smooth all over.

      This product is gental on the skin and didn’t irritate it at all. My leg was red for less then 5 minutes after pulling the was strip which is great.

      I would be happy to buy and use this product again. I think with a bit more practice I would be successful at getting all the hairs off.

    19. KAHamilton 16/11/2020 at 4:09 pm

      Thank you for the opportunity to try these fantastic Veet Easy-Gel Legs Wax Strips! The ease and convenience of use was second to none, my husband even tried to reuse my one strip to try it out and it worked fantastically, I love the scent of the shea butter and acai berries too. I could reuse these 2 to 3 times aswell which was super cool 🙂 Will definately be purchasing sometime soon. Thanks Kidspot & Veet.

    20. Tashakobe 16/11/2020 at 4:03 pm

      I tried the Veet Easy Gel Wax Strips for the first time over the weekend. I have to say I wasn’t that impressed with them. I used one strip about 3 times but it didn’t take the hair off very well, it took 5 pairs for each leg and even then there were still hairs left on my legs. I have a high pain threshold and these actual hurt to pull off. My 13 year old daughter was going to try them but she decided not to.

      The Finish Wipes were very greasy and I had to wash my hands twice to get rid of the oil. I then had to wipe my legs with a cloth before putting my leggings on.

      The packaging is very attractive and the has a slight smell, a nice smell.

      Unfortunately it won’t be a product that I will buy, my leg is still stinging half an hour after I used them.

    21. Rhian 16/11/2020 at 3:48 pm

      I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try the Veet Easy Wax Gel Strips.

      Things I loved
      * It was really easy to separate the strips without having to warm between my hands first
      * One strip can be used several times before needing a new one
      * Quick & relatively painless
      * The rounded tabs make them easy to grab to peel off your legs
      * I have sensitive skin and although I was a little red & bumpy afterwards, it quickly disappeared
      * The wipes easily removed any sticky residue on my legs

      Things I didn’t love so much
      * I ended up with sticky hands
      * It didn’t grab all the hairs and my legs still feel as though I need to go over them again with the strips or a razor

      Conclusion
      I’ll definitely use these again but think I’ll wait until the hairs on my legs are a little longer next time so that hopefully it grabs & removes more of them.

      I tried the Veet easy-gel wax strips over the weekend and was really happy with the result. My skin is slightly on the sensitive side but I had no problems there and loved the subtle smell of Acai berries. The strips themselves were easy to use and it was an added bonus not having to rub the strips together first before separating. The easy-gel wax works well and probably removed 95% of the hairs on my legs. It was actually quite a quick process in the end and I may be a convert due to hating shaving in the shower. Love that they come with the finish wipes too, these are key! Thanks Team 🙂

      Thank you Kidspot for the opportunity to review Veet wax strips. I tested the waxing strips on my leg hair. The strips had a pleasant fruity smell, and I particularly liked the cut-out shape which made it easy to wax the lower leg areas and around the knees. The wax strips peeled apart easily, without wax sticking to one of the strips and not the other – an issue which I’ve had with some of the other brands. I found the wax a little sticky, it left a bit of a residue in some parts, but luckily the pack came with 2 oil wipes which removed the residue easily. The oil wipes were quite large and infused with a generous amount of finishing oil, it left my skin smooth without feeling too greasy. The product removed about 80% of hair in one go, which I found reasonably good compared to other waxing strips I’d used. I could reuse each strip 2-3 times. No skin irritation occurred after using these waxing strips, the packaging says that it is also suitable for sensitive skin. I would definitely recommend this product, it is good for keeping unwanted hair at bay for summer.

    24. Elliejelliebobellie 15/11/2020 at 9:07 pm

      I was really excited to try these wax strips, and discovered that they are very simple and easy to use. Easy to pull apart. The first strip was a little uncomfortable but definitely got easier! Was so sticky on the hands which was a bit frustrating however the wipe at the end was great and removed all the stickiness! It left my legs all rash like afterwards haha so would definitely use these with plenty of time before showing the skin off! Would use these again.

    25. Abs46 15/11/2020 at 4:51 pm

      I have never waxed my legs before in my 38 years! But thought it was about time and great if I didn’t need to shave every second day!

      So I let my hair grow long enough on my legs and amped myself up!!! I did exactly what the packaging said…. Apply in the direction of the hair growth and then quickly pull against the hair growth keeping as low as possible. They came off with roots and all and my skin was super soft but…….. OUCH! I do have sensitive skin and are probably a bit of a sook, but I could only get through half of one leg!!! It made my skin go bright red and angry and appeared to have taken skin off?

      However, a few days after, the parts that were waxed are soft and still hair free! Just wish I was braver!!!!

    26. MuddledUpMolly 15/11/2020 at 12:56 pm

      Thank you for the opportunity to trial the Veet wax strips.
      I have actually used these in the past and haven’t used them for some time as I don’t like to let my leg hairs grow too long and I’m also a sook with the pain. The weather has been rubbish so growing my leg hairs out wasn’t an issue this time. I used twelve out of twenty of the wax strips and got a pleasing result, 90% of the hairs were able to be removed and perhaps the other 10% weren’t quite ready in their growth cycle. I really like the finishing product as it removes all traces of the wax from my skin and it is handy to see if there are any patches that have been missed. The thing I like the most, and what is worth pushing through the slight pain, is that waxing removes the hairs for longer and has a much better result than shaving. Lovely smooth legs just in time for weekend parties and the sun 🙂

      I have been given the amazing opportunity to try the Veet Eas-Gel legs wax trips. I was a bit hesitant at 1st because my skin is very sensitive and usually when I get waxing done, it takes my skin off. This worked flawlessly, no redness and smooth as silk. Got the job done quickly and it’s a bonus that you can use a strip more than once. This is def going to be part of my shopping list when I run out. Thanks for the great opportunity! Love the ailky feeling of my legs and will save me time shaving every 2nd day. 🤗

    28. Maur 14/11/2020 at 11:37 pm

      Thank you for the review opportunity. I actually was surprised at how quick and easy the whole process was. Cute packaging, pleasant smell, and reuse able 2-3 times. Applying was easy, pulling off wasn’t painful at all, i had a few raised red bumps afterwards but that was to be expected. The strips probably pulled 95% of the hair but that was algood. Only a small amount of residue left on my leg, that was easy to remove. All in all i am sold on these, especially if it means not having to shave every 3 days. So easy i wasn’t expecting it at all. Gone are the days of warm wax 😊

    29. Lizzie 14/11/2020 at 12:12 pm

      I loved using the wax strips. They are so easy to use. The hairs on my leg weren’t that long when I used it but it managed to pull out hair that was only a couple of milimeters long! I was able to use each half strip about three times and most of the hair pulled out. The finishing wipes take off any wax residue but then you do have oily legs and hands afterwards. But easy enough to use a damp cloth to get rid of the extra oiliness.

      I decided to wax one leg and shave the other to see the difference. I asked my husband the next day whether he could tell which one I waxed and which one I shaved. He said it was fairly easy to tell as the shaved leg had a stubbly feel and look to it. So a win for the wax strips!

      I can tell that using the wax strips will save me time compared to how frequently I had to shave my legs. Also a win for busy ladies!

      Thank you for letting me trial the Veet wax strips. It’s a great easy to use product and the results are far superior to shaving!

    30. Sheela Duffy 14/11/2020 at 9:31 am

      Thank you Kidspot for giving me the opportunity to trial the Veet Easy Gel Wax Strips.

      Pros
      It was super easy to use the product and the pain was minimum (my pain threshold is very low)
      I used in totalled 12 strips (both strips or 6 ‘pairs’) for my both my legs as each strip can be used a couple of times before a new strip is required
      The process was quick and fast and no mess at all
      It is a definite go-to for me from now on and no more paying $60.00 at the salon to get my legs done. It cost 13.49 at my local Pak N Save for a pack of 20
      Waxing last way much longer than shaving

      Cons
      Nothing!

      Conclusion
      I am a fan of this product and will definitely be adding it to my grocery list.
