I’ve been waxed professionally & done it at home successfully as well. This product is mediocre – I agree that it does tend to cool very fast. When I’ve done waxing at home, I’ve used cotton muslin to remove wax rather previously. Maybe that’s a trade-off for convenience of not using muslin. You can’t heat it up more to minimize ‘reheats’ or you’ll risk burning yourself. I ended up putting it in a small glass bowl that would fit on the heater of my coffee maker. (Thank goodness no one saw me doing this!) Waxing is not like shaving – where you get ‘everything’ in one stroke… there will be places you have to go back to.

Well, I’ve never gone to a salon to be waxed but I assume the salon gets every thing within 2 tries in the same area…. The heating process was ok, you need a hot plate to keep it warm though because otherwise you’ll be visiting the microwave every 3 minutes or so. The wax itself wasn’t too hard to put on but it didn’t get my leg hairs too well. It would get some but definitely not what I thought it’d get. It works on the bikini area though. I wouldn’t get it again, but it works in some areas. I’m still looking for a better product.

I’ve tried several wax strips and soft wax kits that were much more painful and ineffective (most of the time they grabbed virtually no hair). This is super easy and the pain was much less than with other products (using a pretreatment I had from a Nad’s kit made it less painful than ripping off a bandaid, and when I used Nad’s it felt like I hadn’t used any pretreatment). I credit the relative painlessness of it to the fact that it doesn’t stick to skin like a soft wax does. Much less messy than soft wax/muslin strip combo. It grabbed a substantial amount of hair in one stroke, but areas did have to be redone (could be due to various directions of growth rather than ineffectiveness of the product though). Did need to be reheated during use, could be avoided if you bought a wax heater. Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase and would buy again.

This was the biggest waste of money. The was got hard too quickly, and turned brittle almost instantly. Thus, chunks of hardened wax on my leg. Then the areas I was able to pull off in one strip only took off about half the hair on my leg!!! Even bigger disappointment came when I had to get a new razor out so I could shave my legs, and whatever wax was remaining on my legs clogged the razor and ruined it! This product is a nightmare, and if I could give negative 5 stars I would.

I’ve been using this brand for years and was delighted to find it on Amazon and at half the price of my local drug store. You should probably give yourself 3 or 4 uses to get the hang of it. No messy muslin strips are needed and that is great. Also, even though the box reads “Bikini, body, & Legs”, it can be used on the face as well.
Well worth the money, not sticky and messy like the cold waxes and honey waxes, no cloth strips, no bad smell….. but waxing is a bit of a “skill” – if you’ve never done it before, allow yourself time to learn how.
