Summary: 5 Stars
I LOVE this product. I love the smoove results, and I love not paying a salon employee a bale of cash to get up close and personal with my... um... self... only to then inflict pain! And I never have, which is why I had to figure this out on my own.
I reuse this product several times before chucking it and getting a fresh pot, but if the aesthetics of that bother you, it's still a bargain compared to a salon wax job!
So, in the interest of good Panty Content Karma, I'm gonna share my technique with y'all.
Wash up first... the area should be clean & dry. If this is the first time you've done any bikiniscaping, you might want to use a ballpoint pen to draw the edges, assuming you're leaving a garnish (heh). That way that you won't have any guesswork while you're in an awkward position juggling hot wax and spatulas and trying not to drip and attempting symmetricality.
Spread some newspapers on the area you're going to be standing or sitting. I like doing this in front of a floor mirror, but that's because I get EVERYthing... if you're doing a standard sides-only job, you probably don't need it.
Grab a book or magazine. The most challenging part of this process is resisting the urge to pull off the wax before it's hardened, and getting it all over yer fingers.
Nuke the wax. I heat it on high for 90 seconds, but it really depends on your microwave. The consistency is supposed to be like thick but runny honey when it's ready to use. The wax doesn't melt up evenly and will often have a deceptively hard crust on top, despite being molten lava underneath the crust, so watch out!
Gently stir it all up with your spatula, and don't get any on you... it may be very hot and it's no fun at all getting really liquidy hot wax on your skin! If it's too runny (read: hot), let it sit for a minute and then stir it some more. Repeat until it looks ready to spread.
Spread it on in long, semi-thick swatches with your wooden spatula. It seems to be easier to peel off this way.
Wait for it to cool and harden.
Wait.
No really... wait. I hate getting it all over my fingers - yech!
OK, now test it by tapping with your finger. If it's hard, hold the skin underneath taut with one hand while you semi-slowly peel with the other. You can pull it off fast, but I've found that if I yank it off it leaves strays.
Repeat for the spots between your original swatches of wax. You're going to leave some on your skin... don't sweat it.
OK, all done? Yay! Time to get the lil wax leftovers off. Gigi makes a product that removes wax, but frankly, it's only fancy, and extra greasy lotion. When I ran out, I tried using lotion and body butter and found that they worked just fine. You'll find that it will take a little fingernail attention to get some of it off, but it should not be difficult or require serous scratching yourself to get it off. If it is, you need more lotion. Think frosting on a cupcake.
Wipe off lotion with paper towels, clean under your nails before you wash lotion off your hands, wash the area, and voila! You're all smooth!
Aftercare is important if you're prone to getting ingrowns... there are several products out there that help with this, but anthing that is mild and antiseptic will do the trick, including witch-hazel based products that don't have much alcohol (stingy).
