How-to: have a hair-free holiday

Is there anything more annoying than discovering you’ve got hairy bits to deal with while you’re on holiday? It makes you feel all self conscious, and that’s definitely no way to spend your holiday! Instead, arm yourself with a line-up of effective at-home waxing products and no matter where you go, your trusted beautician (read: you) will be right there with you!

Here’s how a few waxing wonders can help you to effectively deal with your hair removal – before takeoff, or once you’re away…

The facial hair solution

Discovering that the hairs between your brows or above your lip have suddenly become very visible can seem like a disaster, especially if you’re away on holiday and there’s no beauty salon to be seen. So what’s the solution? Simply include in your beauty kit a tube of Veet High Precision Facial Wax & Care and you’ll be able to easily remove visible facial hair whenever you fancy. It features a two-step system with salon-quality precision wax on one end, and aftercare cream with aloe vera on the other end to help soothe and hydrate your skin post-wax.

The hairy underarm saviour

If you’re worried that your underarm hair may begin to grow back halfway through your trip, pack an easy-to-use product that can provide you with effective results with minimal fuss. Veet EasyGrip Ready-To-Use Wax Strips are ideal as they are warmed up with your hands and can remove hairs as short as 1.5mm so can be used to touch up your underarms as well as other hairy areas, including your legs and bikini line. Better yet, the strips feature an EasyGrip tab to help you achieve fast, easy and most of all, effective hair removal. Veet EasyGrip Ready To Use Wax Strips for Sensitive Skin also contain almond oil and vitamin E, known for their skin soothing properties.

The prickly pin smoother

As the hair on your legs grows in different cycles, it’s best to get yourself into a regular waxing routine four to six months out from your holiday. This will allow your hairs to reach the same growth cycle and your waxes to last longer. The Veet EasyWax™ Electrical Roll-On Kit is the perfect product to get you started with your routine, as the handheld device is quick and easy to use, and is formulated with the same ingredients as the wax used in salons. It can also remove hairs as short as two millimetres (which makes it great for the not-so-organised among us, who haven’t left enough time before the holidays for our hair to reach the same growth cycle) and produces smooth results that last for up to four weeks. If you’ve got sensitive skin, we recommend using theSensitive Legs & Arms Refill.

Which product do you think you’d most like to have with you on holiday? Which product would you never go away without?
