Can anyone recommend a home waxing kit. I can't wax as my skin is too sensitive but it's for me to use on my teen.

I have a Mylee home wax pot. It's really good! Takes a bit of practise but generally easy to use! It's a big initial outlay but if you add up how much you spend to get waxed professionally it's not too bad and sometimes they have discounts on xx

For a teen I would pay to get it done professionally at least once if that’s an option.

Home waxing is quite tricky and fatty. Ansolutely
do not get the waxing strips as they just don’t work.

I was actually looking at that today, thanks for that.

I love the sugar wax from veet - it's not as painful as regular wax, and works really well.

I was going to but it's quite expensive. It will cost around £70 for underarm, bikini and full leg. That would be every 4 or 5 weeks. I am quite handy at doing beauty stuff.

I was just about to ask about sugar wax. It's supposed to be good for sensitive skin as well. Might be good for teen skin.

Yes I found the sugar wax a game changer - didn't get any rashes or irritation, didn't bruise either and it didn't hurt as much either, I just got mine on Amazon 😊
