Review on πŸ§– Gigi No Sting Hair Removal Soft Wax for Sensitive Skin - Gentle 1-pack, 14 oz, with Kava Kava by Jamie Smith

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This product was a disaster

I have always used Gigi Brazilian Wax and was amazed by the results but not necessarily the inconveniences of at home hair removal. I decided to try the "No Sting" wax offered by the same company and it turned out to be even more painful than the original! First, the wax was soft, which should have been my first clue. It spread up the walls of the jar even though the plastic lid was on. I put it in a low temperature greenhouse and when it softened enough to spread over my skin I applied it to my armpits. And I've been waiting And waited. And waited. The wax never hardened enough for me to easily remove from my skin with a single strip. Instead, after 15 minutes, I had to perform the agonizing task of pulling it from my skin and hair in clumps. And it took me almost an hour to try and get the rest of the wax off my arms and forearms. I had to rub with soap to loosen the wax and ended up with red sore patches on my skin. I don't know if I got a bad batch but I'm going back to regular orders. I can handle a bite in seconds, not an hour of crying and a week of healing.

Pros
  • Long lasting finish
Cons
  • Damaged
