A Few Words of Caution

  • This kit is for external use only. Not for internal use (i.e. Brazilian wax). Do not use on vaginal/genital/perianal area, or genital mucous membrane.
  • Do not use on irritated, wounded, chapped, sunburned or swollen skin, or over ulcers, varicose veins, moles, or warts. Do not use inside nose or ears, on head, eyebrows, eyelashes, or nipples.
  • Do not use if you are elderly, diabetic, have circulatory problems, or delicate skin. Waxing may cause bruising in pregnant women.
  • Discontinue use of retinol, retinoids, products that contain vitamin C and chemical exfoliants for a week before waxing.
  • Do not sunbathe for 24 hours before or after waxing.
  • Do not use deodorants or any other alcohol based products in the waxed area for 24 hours after waxing.
  • Slight discomfort or redness after waxing is common. Apply a cold compress to relieve any discomfort.

Pre Wax Checklist

  • Patch Test: Test the wax strips and post-wax cloths on a discreet area of your body, like your inner forearm. Wait 24 hours to see how your skin reacts to the formulas (though you should be able to tell within minutes). 
  • Check Hair Length: Hair between 2-6mm sticks to wax the best. 
  • Find Direction of Hair Growth: Run a hand over your skin. If the hair is smoothed to the skin and looks neat, that is the direction of hair growth.
  • Prep Your Skin: Skin should be completely clean and dry. If you’ve just showered, wait 45 minutes so your skin has time to cool down. 
  • Take a Deep Breath: Relax and turn on your favorite playlist. Waxing hurts, but it shouldn’t feel like anything you can’t breathe through. If it does, revisit the precautions to make sure waxing is right for your skin. 

Ok, ready? Let’s do it! 

Directions

  • Slowly pull the wax strips apart to ensure even wax distribution (there’s no need to rub the strips between your hands to warm them up—our soft-gel wax comes ready to use).
  • Place a strip on the area you’d like to remove hair and rub it firmly in the direction of hair growth (To find, rub a hand over your skin. If the hair is smoothed to the skin and looks neat, that is the direction of hair growth).
  • Hold skin taut at the base of the strip. With your other hand, grip the wavy edge of the strip and pull it off quickly against the direction of hair growth. Pull away from skin in a sideways motion.
  • Repeat steps 1-3 for each area of hair removal. Each strip can be used for about two pulls, depending on hair texture. Don't go over the same spot twice though; if you don't get all the hair on your first try, wait 24 hours and try again to prevent irritation.
  • When you’re all finished, use an included Post-Wax Cloth to remove any excess wax residue.
  • If you waxed your face, apply Calming Serum using the no-touch applicator to soothe skin.
  • It’s normal for your skin to be irritated for up to 24 hours after waxing. If you’re fair skinned, you’ll probably be a bit red.
  • Wait before working out, sunbathing, or putting on deodorant or alcohol based products.
  • Resist the urge to touch your smooth, freshly waxed skin (we know, it’s hard!). Waxing temporarily opens your pores and makes them more sensitive to dirt and bacteria.
  • Drink some water, relax a little, and thank your skin for hanging in there. You did it!
