SKIN TYPE

RESULTS
Long-lasting smoothness for up to 4 weeks
IDEAL

Ensure your skin is clean and dry. Warm up the wax wand by immersing it, nozzle side down, in hot water for two minutes. Gently shake the wax wand to distribute the heat evenly.
Remove the nozzle and twist the base until wax emerges from the dispenser. After testing the temperature on your wrist, apply a layer of wax in the direction of hair growth with a smooth, gliding action.
Apply the backing strip and rub firmly several times with a smoothing action.
Hold the skin taut with one hand and grip the end of the strip with the other. Staying close and parallel to the skin, pull back the strip quickly and decisively in the opposite direction of hair growth. Apply firm pressure onto the waxed area with your palm to relieve any discomfort. The strips are washable and can be re-used.
If there's any stickiness or wax residue that remains, just use a little moisturiser or baby oil to remove it
PRECAUTIONS

- Do not scratch or rub the skin after waxing.
- Do not expose waxed area to harsh sunlight or hot water before or after waxing. We recommend waiting 8 hours before suntanning.

- If any irritation, tingling or burning occurs during use, remove the product and rinse the area thoroughly with cool water. If symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
I’ve heard waxing can be sore or uncomfortable which makes me apprehensive. Is this true?
Waxing removes the hair from the root, so yes, there’s a level of sensation as nerves surround that hair root. But everyone is different and the experience varies from person to person. Avoid waxing a few days before or after your period, as your skin is more sensitive at this time. The muscles around the hair contract when it is cold, so wax in a warm room where those muscles are relaxed and comfortable which will minimise any discomfort. If you can pull a plaster off your skin, you’ll be just fine with waxing!
How hot should the wax be?
Follow the heating instructions on pack to heat the wax. Test the temperature by placing a small drop of wax to the inside of the wrist. The sensation of the wax on your skin should feel hot, but not to the extent of any discomfort.
How should I prepare my skin before waxing?
Waxing works best on clean, dry skin that is free of moisture, sweat or natural body oils. We don’t suggestion moisturising the skin before a wax. If you’re in a humid environment, apply a light layer of talc to the skin before waxing to absorb any excess moisture.
Do I need epilating strips for this product?
Yes – there are reusable, washable strips included in the kit.
I didn’t find the product effective – what went wrong?
Ensure the wax is hot and malleable enough to grip on to the hairs – if it’s too cold, it won’t do so. Ensure your skin is clean, dry and in good condition – if it is too dry and scaly, or sticky and greasy, the wax will not work effectively.
Can I clean the wax and reuse it?
Recycling wax it not advisable – it’s both unhygienic and compromises the integrity of the wax.
There’s a slight stickiness or residue after I’ve used the wax – how can I get rid of this?
The easiest way to remove the residue is by using a little of your everyday moisturiser or baby oil.
