What products do you *really* need to use before and after waxing? Very new to this and don't want to buy things I don't need.

You don't need any fancy product for sure. All you need is baby powder-- this is used for areas with hairs that are very thick; it helps with the bleeding. After--all you need is baby oil--apply it with a cotton ball to put moisture back into the skin to help relieve the redness. Also helps to soothe the area of course. Simple as that. I have done a lot of at home waxing and this method works just as great as any other.

Well I purchased the gigi warmer and some body oil at a drugstore. I read everywhere that if you use a little oil on the skin it creates a little barrier so skin won't be irritated. I also bought those waxing sticks to spread the wax. You basically oil up your skin, apply the wax pretty quickly as a thin to medium layer (it dries pretty quickly), and then peel the wax strip off and throw away. This wax acts as the wax and strip combined, eliminating the need for gooey regular wax and also epilating strips. Of course after you wax there will be irritation but it goes away after a few hours.

Just wash your face thoroughly sometimes it's good to add. Little baby powder to absorb any moisture or oil you need was the sticks and the wax warmer if you buy hard was you do not need strips

No, I didn't use one. A good microfiber pad/towel is the best at buffing the wax out. That first over buffing towels if by hand. The only problem I had was knowing if I got all the wax off. White wax dried on a white car Do much more smaller sections at the time to make sure you got it all off

You have to have the wax heating unit to use this wax. This is a great product. Very gentle with great removal.

NO! You only need a small amount depending on the length of your hair. I used it on towel dried hair and styled and let it air dry. It didn't have that real stiff or waxed look and I got the soft messy look I wanted. If I wanted to "comb" my hair I would just wet my hands and restyle. I love this product, my hair is still short but longer than when I first started using it and it is also a great pre styling product before I dry and use a curling iron or brush.I am very confident that you will love this product and remember a little goes a long way! I hope this helped.

I only used my waxing kit once before it stopped working but the wax was a nightmare to get off. I tried waxing my bikini area and it took me days to get it off. I used Vaseline and eventually after scrubbing until I was raw, it came off.

I use gigi facial honee wax. These strips are great to use with any hot wax system.

Sponge applicator comes with it. wipe on with circular motion and let dry to haze and then buff it out. Pretty standard with all waxes

I don't do bikini waxes...only facial waxing. It lasts a really long time for me because I only do small areas.

This was my first time waxing, so I was a rookie when I bought this product. I really wouldnt recommend it. It's really messy and hard to deal with, and I could imagine that possibly someone more skilled could use it more effectively. It didn't work well for me, and after using it twice I decided it would be a lot easier to get strips or whatever. The pain itself is hard enough to deal with as a first-timer. I wish I could recommend another product to you, but I haven't found anything that has worked well for me yet either. Hope that helps!

No you have to use a special wax, theirs. I just gave mine away as took forever to warm the wax...onto the next brand.

Everything you need is in the box. You don't need to use anything else either before or after........this wax in the box (final step of 4) is a liquid and it will, if really buffed goodand I use an old, fluffy robe, make your car shine like a glass mirror!!! Just do all the steps as instructed............... I LOVE THIS PRODUCT for my black 2002 pt crusier................fills in any scratches, sm dings but WEAR GLOVES and only use old, soft, material things like old socks etc because it is soooooo good it will TURN YOUR HANDS, EVERYTHING IT TOUCHES BLACK!!

i poured some full in double wax warmer and it lasts months depending on how often and how large of area of body you are waxing, because u just reheat it. but dont re-use wax. just poor hygiene

Nope. You don't need anything else.I love all 3 products. I use the serum while my hair is wet, before blow drying, and I use a small amount when I finish blow drying my hair. My hair is so shiny & soft. It smells good too. Great price from Amazon.

I used my own wax and everything seemed okay. I think you should be fine I used my own wax cause I didn't really like the finish the 3m left. I wanted a better shine.

depends how much you use. I have another product called Keratherapy and that is very waxy. This one doesn't come off on my fingers unless I rub it. Give it a try..I like this one and I'm scared to use others. Looks natural too!

Hi Gurjeet :) No, you do not need anything else. After rubbing the piece of plastic between your hands for 2-5mins the wax will heat up, take apart the plastic lining and place on your skin. You may need to do this step over and over again because this is a weak wax strip, but it does work after doing this 2 or 3 times.
