It
Here’s what you need to know about using an at-home waxing kit.
Firstly, pour your desired number of beads into the silicone cup and place cup in the center of a microwave.
Heat in 45 second increments until wax has a thick, caramel like consistency, then carefully remove the cup from the microwave using the reinforced handle.
Ensure to test the wax temperature carefully on the inside of your write prior to application.
To start waxing, firstly clean the intended area to be waxed and remove excess oil, makeup or lotions.
Holding the silicone applicator at a 45-degree angle, apply a thick layer of wax in the direction of hair growth.
Allow the wax to cool on the skin until it becomes soft and pliable – approximately 30 seconds.
Hold the skin taut and pull the wax off with one quick motion in the opposite direction of hair growth.
Immediately apply firm pressure to the epilated area with the cushion of your finger or palm of your hand to calm the skin.
It’s that simple!
