HOT (Hard) Wax Strip-Free (120g), Parissa Salon Style Hair removal waxing Kit for bikini, brazilian, face, upper lip, Eyebrow With after care Azulene oil

So I was a little intimidated when I opened the package. It Contains two large popsicle sticks, a small one that looks like it's for the miniature ice creams, instructions in every language known to man, the soothing after oil and a little metal pot of wax that looks like it belongs in a camping kit. I was kind of bummed that I wouldn't be able to heat it up in the microwave, but I read the instructions for the stove (there's also instructions for a hot plate.) And it was simple. You put it on the burner on low until half of the wax is melted and then you take it off and start working it's magic.When I say magic, I mean Magic. I bought this wax for the little straggly chin hairs (peach fuzz and dark coarse ones), my upper lip hairs and potentially when I'm confident enough, my eyebrows. I typically Shave/Tweeze the hair on my face (The dark ones). But I'm getting too old for that mess and I want it all off at once and quickly. I've tried Sally Hansen's facial wax (All of them... the strips you warm up in your hands, the wax you microwave), All of the Nair available and basically any lightening cream or hair removal you can buy at Walmart. They're all a pain, messy and do a mediocre job as pulling/removing/vanishing the hair. I remember waxing with the Microwave wax and it would only pull off every other hair and the wax was very...cheap...flimsy.But Parissa Strip free wax is The Business! (a.k.a. The Bomb, Legit, For Real, The Best) After I heated up my cute little Camping stove pot of wax (it really is cute, like easy bake oven cute) I quickly took it to my bathroom, successfully without tripping and spilling it everywhere. And I stirred it up with an included popsicle stick. I hesitated because I knew it would be hot, but I wasn't sure if the entire pot needed to be melted as well. After a minute I got tired of waiting so I slathered it on my lip and chin. It was warm and I'm glad I waited a minute. I ripped it off when it was cool but still movable like putty, and Holy Cow did it pull the hair. I inspected one piece of wax I pulled from the side of my lip and it got all the little peach fuzz, it even got two thick dark hairs that I didn't even see on my face!! This wax feels like the kind you would get at a salon or spa. It feels like real grown-up wax.For people with sensitive skin, I do recommend trying a patch somewhere because there is some sort of essential oil in it, some sort of fragrance, like a pine tree or eucalyptus oil or something. So if scents irritate your skin, beware. But otherwise BUY THIS PRODUCT.Also, Please people, don't be a dummy and misuse this product and burn yourself. Put your common sense caps on and think about how hot the wax and camping stove wax pan might be before you touch it or apply it. There is no "Safety thermometer" and it will be Hot, hence the name "Hot Wax" I would hate for one of you to get burned, sue the company for damages and the company ruin this product by changing the formula or something for "Safety Purposes". Please be smart, don't ruin hair free fun for everyone!!

Very impressed with this wax. It's a bit messy and a bit tricky to get used to, but the results outweigh those factors. I love that I don't have to use strips with this wax as well. So far, I've only used this on my armpits and it removed about 90% of the hair. So why the 5 stars if it didn't remove 100%, you ask? Since underarm hair grows in several different directions, I was not expecting perfection outside of a salon, plus this gave me MUCH better results than any other waxes I have tried which barely pulled ANY hairs from my pits. (Not only that, but my hair may have been shy of 1/4 inch which is what is recommended for waxing.) Side note: make sure you test the temperature before you begin- the first swipe was really hot and I had to let it cool a bit before continuing.

I'm a first time waxer, so I don't feel qualified to give 5 stars on any waxing product. This did the job just fine. It is messy, but I'm sure that's my inexperience. It's quite painful, but the pain is fleeting, and goes away quickly. I paid $5 for this as an ad on item, and it was much less expensive than most other waxing products. I recommend having a wax warmer, so you're not having to clean up wax from your cooking stove. It comes with it's own little pan to warm it in. It smells like pine needles from an evergreen forest. To me that was refreshing. The instructions are simple, and easy to read. I don't think this is intended for waxing large areas like your back, chest or legs. For me it worked best in small patches. I bought it because it was highly recommended by more experienced people, and I feel like their positive reviews were accurate.

I love this product. and have used it and re-purchased probably 6 times since 2004. a huge fan.It is EXCELLENT! and easy to use with NO strips to deal with or run out of before the wax is gone.a few tips that really helped - learned by experience.1. heat it on the stove on LOW heat and set a timer... there've been a couple times I've forgotten it was warming and it lost some of it's moisture when it started to steam a little, still usable, but definitely best when it's warmed through slowly. (don't have to make the whole thing liquid if you have a small/quick area to do)2. use the sticks provided but break it in half length wise to do brows with more precision.3. follow the instructions. ie: don't wash your face prior, go against the grain of the hair and pull it the same direction...etc...4. if you have too much wax on your stick/applicator, make sure to wipe it off so all the wax goes IN the container pot, if some spills down the side remember to clean it off before you store it, so that it doesn't transfer to your stove the next time you use it.5. it doesn't have to be completely cooled to put it away just make sure it goes back in the box so that it's totally flat/upright. and the stick is not in the mix.I also use the oil that it comes with, it does help both to sooth and prevent any breakout on the area that was waxed.and I have pretty course hair... so it works great. mostly just use it on my face. brows, chin, etc..
