Methods
Epilation differs in that it implies the complete destruction of the hair structure along with the root. It can be achieved by destroying the hair follicle or removing it from the hair follicle. When depilating, only the cutaneous part of the hair is removed, that is, it continues to grow in the future, you can only delay this process for the maximum time.
For hair removal can be applied by removal of electricity. The disadvantages of this method are painful procedures, the possible appearance of edema. In this process, a small needle is placed in each hair, so it takes a long time and is not cheap. Traces of needles subsequently remain for some time.
Another way - laser hair removal, which does not cause discomfort and occurs fairly quickly.
But with her, the skin can become stained, especially in girls with blond hair. The cost of this procedure is as high as that of photo epilation. But the latter has only one minus - the price.
For temporary removal using mechanical methods. The most traditional is shaving. It temporarily eliminates the problem, and then the hair grows more intense and more coarse. Pulling hair with tweezers is painful and time consuming. The same disadvantages and cauterization, moreover, it is also unsafe, can destroy the delicate structure of the skin, leading to the appearance of ugly sores.
Chemical methods also have a lot of disadvantages. Using creams can cause burns and allergies. Bleaching only visually fixes the problem.
The use of wax for depilation has been known since ancient times. Then applied folk remedy - a natural bee product. Today, you can use wax to remove hair from Veet skin, which has a number of beneficial properties.

- can relieve hair problems for a long time - up to 40 days;
- All Veet wax options are easy to use at home and without help.
- There is a convenient package with instructions for use.
Warm wax from a popular brand can cost more than similar products from lesser-known manufacturers, but in any case, this method of hair removal is much cheaper than procedures using instruments in the beauty salon.
Kinds
The Veet product in jars contains a plastic container with a 250-ml wax, a wooden spatula with a heat indicator and paper strips. There are varieties with the aroma of jasmine and essential oils. The consistency in the cold rather thick, slightly transparent. The color is dark brown with a reflection, the wax looks like a homogeneous mass. The box has an insert with instructions in various languages, including Russian.
Veet wax strips are available in 12 pcs. Additionally, there are 2 moisturizing wipes that must be used after the depilation procedure. There are several types of this product:
- with shea butter and berry extract;
- for dry and sensitive skin;
- with the effect of quick hair grip;
- with vitamin E and almond oil;
- with aroma of velvet rose and essential oil.
New variants are also available with natural healing ingredients.
In addition, there are types for individual parts of the body: for feet, face or universal. So the choice of strips for Veet depilation is quite large.
The Veet wax in the cartridges contains a roller cartridge, a heating appliance and paper strips for hair removal. This is the most expensive option, but it does not require the use of a microwave or water bath for heating, besides, it creates the optimum temperature for using the product and applies a uniform layer. The roller allows to spend wax most economically. The disadvantage of using Veet in cartridges is that it is not suitable for the face and some other areas, and for depilating large areas of skin (for example, on the legs) it will have to be heated several times.
How to use?
Canned wax before use must be heated in a water bath or use a microwave. In the latter case, the heating must be done carefully. If you overdo the product inside, you can hopelessly spoil it. There is the following memo on the time of heating the capacity of Veet wax 250 ml (depending on the capacity of the device):
- 650 W microwave: full bank 60 s, half - 40 s;
- 850 W microwave: full bank 45 s, half - 30 s;
- 1000 W microwave: full bank 40 s, half - 30 s.
If a water bath is used, then readiness is easiest to check by the indicator in the form of a blue square on the handle of the wooden scoop included in the set. It is necessary to immerse it completely in wax and hold for one minute. If the inscription “No” appeared on the blue square, the composition is too hot and can cause burns on the body. We must leave it cool until the letters disappear. But with insufficient heating, the tool will be too thick and will not be smeared with a thin layer on the body.
When heated in a water bath, it is necessary to pour water into the pot at a level just below the jar of wax, bring to a boil and make a minimum of fire. The heating time of the full tank is 10 minutes, half time is 5 minutes. You need to ensure that the tool does not boil, since it loses its useful properties.
The paddle for applying such cosmetics has different sides - especially for different parts of the body. When removing hairs on the legs, wax is applied with its concave side (in the direction of hair growth). The wax is evenly smoothed with a thin layer. Then the strip is laid over and smoothed to a tight fit to the body, after which it is removed with a sharp movement.
In the armpits, wax is applied with a rounded end of the scapula. The main thing is that the skin in this weather should be completely dry, since a large number of sweat glands are located here. To ensure dryness, you can use talc. The tool should be applied, raising his hand in two directions - from the middle of the axillary zone to the elbow and vice versa. Then, without giving up, you need to smooth out the strip on this area and tear it off with a sharp movement.
For the area between the upper lip and nose, special small strips should be cut.
The wax is smeared with the flat end of the scapula. Hair is removed first from one, then from the other side. The procedure in the bikini area is no different, only if necessary, you need to cut strips of the desired shape and size for problem areas.
Epilation with Veet wax strips is much simpler. The strip must be rubbed between the palms, warming it. Then separate one half from the other and stick to the desired area, smoothing in the direction of hair growth. Then she abruptly breaks down. It should be borne in mind that one strip is used repeatedly, so that the Veet packaging is not enough for 12, but for more times.
When using a cartridge, it should be placed in a heating device and turned on for 20 minutes.After that, the liquid substance is smeared with a thin layer on the desired area in the direction of hair growth. Then everything is as it was already described: the strip is smoothed and sharply broken.
After carrying out any of the described types of depilation with warm wax, no one is immune from minor skin irritations, even if the temperature of the heated product was the most suitable. Hair removal can always provoke red spots, rash or slight itching. To protect against bacteria after the procedure, you can treat your skin with disinfectants: calendula oil, ethyl alcohol or peroxide. To soften delicate skin and eliminate sores, you can spread the treated places with baby or moisturizer.
After such depilation for 12 hours, do not use decorative cosmetics.
Prohibited natural or artificial tan.
Composition
In a can, strips or cartridge - the composition of the product itself is always the same.. The basis of the product is distilled water, citric acid, potato starch and sucrose. The virtues of Veet wax are that the perfumery components are mainly of natural origin: shea butter, citrus fruits, pine nuts and tea tree. Jasmine gives the skin an additional aroma of freshness, and essential oils nourish and strengthen skin tissues.
