I bought these to wax my upper lip. I have tried the Veet wax strips for my legs but did not like them. I was hoping that these would be better as it is for finer hairs in smaller areas. I have never waxed my lip before, and did so for the first time the other day using one of these. I have really sensitive skin usually but could only find a box of regular strips, but decided to try them anyway. The process was really simple, really quick and virtually painless. I did not lose skin and the irritation (redness) passed very quickly. I am really impressed, and would highly recommend these. The price is also great.
