Rhea Souhleris Grous is the founder of La Suite Skincare at Union Square Dermatology and an aesthetics specialist with more than two decades of experience. If you’re looking for a quick way to remove hair at home, one that delivers long-lasting results, then waxing strips are hard to beat. The wax heater is handily portable, warming in just a few minutes, and can be used with a variety of different wax types. You get 40 of the strips in a pack, which take off even super-short hairs, along with post-wax wipes to quickly and easily clean up any residue.

But bear in mind that after waxing, we were left a bit red for around two hours, which although normal, isn’t ideal if you’re heading out. A cheekily named product that will quickly get your bikini area looking super-smooth, this wax kit is compact (perfect for suitcases and carry-ons) and is here to save the day when you have no room to fit a salon visit into your busy schedule. You won't waste any of the 32 strips going over the same area more than once because they work exactly as they should the very first time.Here we’ll take a look at these methods, to ensure hair removal is as quick, easy and pain free as possible. This is simply a ‘tidy up’ that removes any hair that could be seen while wearing a bikini or a swim suit – so from the upper thighs and just outside the panty line, and also from the top that might peek over the waistband. The hair should be between an eighth- and a quarter-inch long," aesthetician Hannah Naranjo previously told Allure. This should never be your first option, as it can leave ingrown hairs, as well as dark undergrowth and black dots making it very difficult to get a clean line – and that’s before we even get on to the itching! One of the most important things to always ensure, however, is that the area you are going to wax is clean and dry, regardless of where it is.

For those looking to wax their face, the Flamingo face wax kit or FFS facial wax strips are hard to beat. After a few minutes, scrape a small amount off to see if the hair comes with it, if not do the same every minute or so until all of the hair is gone. In addition, we advise steering clear of perfume and any fragranced skincare products for a few days after waxing since these too can irritate sensitive, freshly waxed skin.We found the strips were easily strong enough to take all the hairs out from the root in one go, leaving hardly any red spots and – believe it or not – was relatively pain-free. The creams come in different formats, such as a tube, like the classic Veet hair removal cream, or with a domed applicator like the Bodycurv which is specially designed for the bikini line, as it follows the contours of your body. Whether you choose to epilate, laser, shave or use hair removal cream, each method has its pros and certainly its cons.
