WAXING DIFFERENT AREAS
The skin on your face is particularly sensitive and special care
needs to be taken when removing facial hairs. Both Hard Wax
and Soft Wax (with paper strips) can be used for facial waxing.
Experiment and see which works best for you.
The wooden spatulas can be carefully split in two lengthways
by simply bending them until they snap. This provides a more
manageable means of applying the wax to small areas.
For best results we recommend using soft wax on large areas
such as the legs. Legs are the best area to start waxing
because they are the least sensitive.
UPPER LIP
The upper lip ideally needs to be treated as three separate
areas. Hairs generally grow downwards directly under the nose
and outwards at either side towards the corners of the mouth.
Wax each area separately, applying the wax in the same
direction of the hair growth and then removing the strip against
the hair growth for the best results.
CHIN AND CHEEKS
This is a fairly straightforward area of the face to treat but
it is still advisable to use a thinner split spatula and smaller
wax strips to give you greater control during the hair removal
process.
EYEBROWS
Eyebrow waxing is designed to give definition and shape to
these highly visible features. Great care must be taken to only
remove those hairs that you wish to remove. You can protect
the hairs to be retained by lightly coating them with petroleum
jelly to prevent the wax sticking to them.
You can then use the small split spatula to shape your eyebrow,
defining their lines and highlighting your eyes as shown in the
diagrams below.
STEP 1
Place a spatula vertically against the side of
your nostril. The hairs that remain on the side
of the spatula between the two brows should
be removed.
STEP 2
Looking straight ahead place a spatula
vertically in line with your pupil. This is where
the highest point of the brow should be.
STEP 3
Place a spatula diagonally at the edge of the
nostril and out towards the tip of the eye. The
eyebrow should finish at the point where the
spatula meets the eyebrow.
