I bought one of those self-wax kits and tried it at home. I had to get someone to help as I couldn’t be sure I’d done all of my legs – it’s hard to see the back. It worked really well for me. The “pain” was minimal (honestly!) and the hair came off properly. However, although the strips were billed as “reusable”, subsequent attempts resulted in patchy, uneven removal. Buying new strips all the time (or even getting it done professionally) would be far too expensive for me. I’ll definitely wax for special occasions, though.

I’ve finally worked it out. It’s harder with contact lenses (I think), not totally worth it. Eyeliner is a now a staple of my makeup bag/pot.
