Y'ALL! I couldn't resist telling you about this stuff! I just used it for the first time this morning and I'll def be buying it again!
Same brand sells "wax strips" that I have been using for my lip since the pandemic. They were super easy and cheaper than the salon so I kept using them after salons opened…and eventually dabbled in larger strips for legs and bikini.
I decided to buy the sugar wax bc it's vegan and creates far less waste than the beeswax strips. I've had it since December but was kinda scared to try lol. Just the thought of using liquid wax seemed like it would be a lot messier and more difficult than the pre-made wax strips.
Y'all it was SO easy!!! Since it's sugar wax, it literally just rinses right off with water, so no issues if you get it somewhere you don't intend to, and no need to have oil for clean up like with beeswax. And it was A LOT less irritating to my legs than the strips were! I don't know why...if it has to do with the difference between beeswax and sugar wax or maybe bc you can adjust how thick you apply it??? Who knows…but my skin is so much happier with this! I'm not gonna say it didn't hurt 😂 but if you've waxed before, you know there's a point where you quickly kinda get used to it. And even tho I've been fairly desensitized to the beeswax, I can confidently say this product didn't hurt as bad as the beeswax strips. I was SO impressed at how well this product worked! It pulled the hair out better than the strips, so I didn't have to go over spots multiple times the way I did with the strips, and my skin is SO much happier. Plus it's less expensive than the strips bc it lasts A LOT longer with one purchase, and you can rinse & reuse the cloths, so the waste is minimal.
Anyway I just had to tell you guys about it because I'm super impressed with this and would highly recommend this product! If you're interested, you can buy it at Ulta and it is coupon-eligible.
Btw - that’s my coffee mug warmer it’s sitting on. I used it to help keep it warm throughout the waxing session but I think you could probably get away without something like that and worst case just reheat in the microwave once or twice if needed.
