This is good stuff. After a bad experience with Gigi stripless wax I thought I'd never try DIY wax again. After living in Japan for almost 5 years and getting waxes using stripless wax I never wanted to use strip wax again (to me it's less pain). Moved back to the US went to get a wax and they used strips. I decided why bother calling all the salons in my city to see what type of wax they use I'd just find a wax and do it myself. I'm so glad I tried this first. If I hadn't have I probably would have given up again. This was the most painless wax I've ever had and I did it myself! How great is that. For lower legs it was not enough, but I just remelted some of the wax used on my other leg to finish the job. It works just the same although some may think that's yucky but hey it's my hair. :-) Just like a previous reviewer said just read and follow the directions.

This is perfect for delicate/sensitive areas and I find it works on smaller areas best. I use it on my upper lip, although I don't have much of a mustache but I still hate even the slightest bit of hair and since I have dark skin, bleaching just isn't an option. Hair on my face is almost not visible at all, but I find that even the tiniest hairs make my upper lip look darker which makes me look like I have a mustache even when I don't, then TA DAAAH! In comes Parissa Hot Wax to the rescue.

It's SO easy to use and removes even the most minuscule of hairs leaving no mess because it becomes firm and comes off like a bit of blue tack (but green). Also, the azulene oil (the nice blue stuff in the glass tube) is AMAZING as an after wax soothing oil and also prevents the hair from growing back so quickly, so even though I find waxing my upper lip quite painful (I have sensitive skin), I never have to do it that often. No strips, no fuss, no mess, no hair, PERFECT!
