Instant Eyebrow Shapers - Fast, Easy, & Mistake Proof Waxing Strips - Natural & Pain-Free Eyebrow Waxing Kit -Wax Strips for Hair Removal for All Skin Types (18 Each, Pack of 1)

I used to get these years ago at Walmart. When they stopped carrying them, I could get something similar at Sally Beauty Supply. Now Sally doesn't carry them either, so I ended up getting the eyebrow wax strips. They did not work for me! I hate the wax strips! They tore my skin and I had a scab on both eyes for a week. I prefer these, they are easy to cut to fit the shape I need for the area on my eyebrows that I'm doing, and more gentle to the sensitive skin. Very satisfied!

Let me preface this by saying that I normally do my eyebrows at home with regular wax strips. I just cut them in half lengthwise, apply and pull. But these were special wax strips. They were not only less expensive, but meant to be easier to help you shave your eyebrows. They weren’t. They were two sticker sheets with two different size rectangles. Rectangles are not really conducive to shaping eyebrows. And the solution was so gentle in that they became unsticky extremely quickly. I also didn’t realize while I was using them that they were pulling up layers of skin. I did realize that they were leaving a lot of hair behind. The wax solution, was so gentle that I didn’t think anything was actually going on, and that it wouldn’t be a big deal to use multiple strips in the same area. I know, stupid me. I use almost a whole sheet of these stupid wax strips because they were so gentle. I didn’t realize the damage they were actually doing to my skin. I decided that I didn’t wanna go through too many and I did not want to aggravate my skin as my skin still felt fine. It was only after a while that I realized the damage that had been done. I never have issues with stubborn hair or hair being left behind when I wax. The strips left a lot of hair behind and some of my chapped areas and extremely dry Areas where I unknowingly over waxed there’s still a lot of hair. I think these products are a waste of time, a waste of money, and the formula is a very poor substitute for regular waxing. Especially as it leaves hair and takes skin strips with it. I’m hoping that my skin heals quickly so that I can remove the remaining hair without issue. I will never ever buy these strips again!

I have tried it all - the roll on wax with strips, the wax you smear on and peel off, the wax you smear on and pull off with strips, the strips with wax already on them, and just plain ole plucking.While I mastered the smear-it-on-pull-it-off-with-a-strip method, I always found I was out of strips, with a lot of wax left. Plus, it was troublesome to keep the wax at the correct temperature.Finally, I tried these, and for the very first time, in all my plucking/waxing history, I had perfectly shaped, beautiful eyebrows WITH NO REDNESS OR PAIN!! (This includes dozens of trips to the spa where pain and redness occurred). There were only a couple of minutes of redness and tingling, and then it completely went away, and my eyebrows are perfect. Typically, because I have sensitive skin, my eyebrows would remain red and itchy/painful for a couple of days.I'm thrilled to have found this product, and I hope everyone else loves it as much as I do so that it will stick around. It was the easiest, most pain-free method I have ever used, and I will never have ugly eyebrows again thanks to these!-----Update on 3/16/2010:I am still using these strips and have never been happier with an at-home eyebrow waxing product. I have to contest those who compare this to "scotch tape". That being said, you have to wash your face, freeing it of oil, and dry it thoroughly before using these. These will do the job completely as long as you do so. Great product. Still very happy!

I’ve been using this item for years. They work very well for me. Delivery is fast and efficient.

Value wise these are a 5 star item for me. But I'll admit that there is a steep learning curve, and it certainly doesn't work 100%. Sometimes it's frustrating. But for me this is far less time consuming, painful, or frustrating than tweezing with better results. Tricks I've figured out:1. I MUST put vaseline on areas up to the eye where there is no hair (or you'll tear off eyelid skin). I can't be lazy about this or I regret it every time.2. I must make sure not to get any vaseline or oil on areas I'm waxing. So face must be freshly showered and completely dry. And then no finishing oil until I'm complete done, and apply the vasoline very thinly with a q-tip.3. Cut the strip to the right shape, and warm it just before applying. A blow dryer works best. After applying, let it cool for a second before tearing off.4. Always pull the skin taught with the other hand while tearing off. Having an assistant is probably helpful for beginners.5. Don't go over the same spot more than once. Ok, this one I do cheat on, but I limit myself to 2x over any given spot. Any more than that and it's so raw I look like a clown. Often with some bleeding. If it doesn't get the hair on the first two tries, then I have to tweeze them or try again after a few days. And sometimes it doesn't work. Fortunately tweezing (or even squeezing the hairs between strips or my fingers) is easy at this point because there is sticky wax on the brows to tug at.It's not perfect, and sometimes it is downright frustrating.. But for me still 100x better than tweezing, or hot wax. And much faster, with much cleaner and well shaped results.

O stars. It does not work. Save your money
