Mylee provides wax for salons and professional waxers, so you'll be in good hands. The tea tree-infused creme wax in this kit has antibacterial properties, helping to minimise ingrown hairs. With 3,497 reviews with an overall rating of 4.5 stars, this kit is a steal.

Review: "Very high-quality waxing kit. I bought another one from Amazon last time but it gave me a rash for some reason. But when I used this tea tree wax it was very soothing and removed all the hair effortlessly! I was surprised to see the size and consistency of the pre and aftercare lotions, really good they made me feel all pampered. I would HIGHLY recommend these products."

Apart from the complete satisfaction that you'll get from watching the wax beads melt in your wax heater, this Tress Wellness kit is also the best way to imitate a professional wax from the comfort of your home. It includes five bean bags, 20 waxing sticks, 10 eyebrow waxing strips, as well as a digital heater displaying exact temperatures.

Review: "I don't usually leave reviews, but this is amazing. I used it for the first time today. I normally use cold wax which is a sticky mess. This I found very easy to use no mess and did a fantastic job. Will be using it again."

This waxing kit from Nads is a superb value - it contains reusable strips, an argan-infused pre-wax soap and 100 per cent natural sugar wax. Any residue washes off easily and leaves the skin feeling silky smooth.

Review: "I've never had a professional leg wax so I can't compare to that but I found this product so easy to use and my legs feel silky smooth afterwards. I love that it's sugar-based and any mess can be easily washed away. My skin isn't irritated afterwards, just a bit tingly as to be expected. This wax is actually less painful than other DIY products I've tried! Overall I am so pleased and will purchase again."

This sugar wax is a great vegan option. The 100 per cent vegan wax is water-soluble, so you shouldn't be left with any nasty residue. It's free from additives, resins and citric acid and comes with biodegradable, reusable strips.

Review: "I finally found the wax I've been looking for! This is the kind of was we used back home, with no mess, no skin irritation and easy to clean. Easy to warm up, come with reusable strips, and it removed all my hair from my legs with no fuss. I have sensitive skin and usually rashes, but not with this wax. Very happy and will purchase again!"

If Brazilian waxing's your game, you have to try this wax kit. It specifically targets coarse hairs and leaves a smooth, surprisingly hydrating finish. It's a strip-free wax, so you'll need to apply quite a thick layer of this one to be able to grab the end.

Review: "By far the best wax I've ever used. As painless(?!) as wax can be, gets out all types of hair with minimal discomfort. Gentle enough for brows and face, but durable enough for tougher hairs like bikini/underarms. A little goes a long way, but you must get the consistency right through trial and error - I heat it until liquid forms and then put my warmer on low and start using it from honey-like consistency."

Veet is another household name when it comes to hair removal, and this microwaveable wax is a great option for an at-home wax. It's enriched with essential oils and is perfect for legs, bikini and underarm areas.

Review: "This wax is brilliant for first-time waxers. The wax simply needs to be heated up in the microwave and can be used 3 times to remove hair on the bottom half of the legs. There are plenty of strips that come with the product that can be washed in warm water and reused, and the wooden spreader has a handy indicator on it to tell you if the wax is too warm for your skin."

Another great option for a salon-feel wax is this set from Argos. It has rave reviews and can handle two types of wax, soft or hard, depending on your preference. The kit includes a heater, wax, spatulas, wax strips and a tutorial DVD.

Review: "Absolutely love the wax heater! I don't know why I didn't get one sooner. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a salon-standard outcome at home! Great product, easy to use and easy to clean."

This stripless wax has over 4,000 raving reviews on Amazon, so we're pretty sure it's a knockout product. This set from Parissa is particularly great for sensitive areas like the underarms, bikini area and face.

Review: "I have been getting waxed in salons for years. However, where I am now based, nobody can seem to wax efficiently so I decided to DIY wax on myself. I usually go for Brazilians so I used this ALL over. 100% less painful than in a salon. I have 0 blisters or red bumps which was a first in 8 years and it has been the most satisfying and relaxing experience I have ever had with waxing. This, girls, is the key to happiness."
