Waxing without fear

One look at the supremely high-cut bathing suit Kelly Brook has been sporting on a Barbados beach this week and you'll be thinking about waxing (and grimacing at the idea).

Tackling those delicate zones with home wax kits can be perilous but Bliss reckons it has found the answer. The new Poetic Waxing Kit (£35) shrink-wraps and rips out hairs as short as 1mm.

It's worth getting the Ingrown Eliminating Pads (£26, blisslondon.co.uk) too.

To get rid of hair for good, try Soprano laser hair removal treatment at EF MediSpa (cost on consultation, efmedispa.com).
