Leg Waxing Instructions
|
1
|
Place wax mug on stove and melt wax on MEDIUM HEAT taking care not to overheat or burn the wax. Remove the wax mug from the stove, let wax cool until it reaches the consistency of thick honey. If the wax cools down too much for use, place wax mug back on the stove to reheat a little. Stir thoroughly before use.

Using a spatula, test wax on the inside of your wrist for comfortable working temperature. If wax stings or smarts when applied, this indicates that wax is too hot for use. Allow wax to cool then test again.

Cleanse the skin with Wax-cellence Gentle Skin Cleanser on a cotton pad, then apply a light film of Wax-cellence Gentle Waxing Lotion by hand (approximately 10 drops per half leg), massaging well into the skin. Tissue any excess oil off. Wax-cellence Gentle Waxing Lotion prevents the wax from sticking to the skin.

Using a spatula, apply the wax against the hair growth, in strips as thick as a banana skin. The strips should be approximately 6cm wide by 12cm long. Apply several strips on the leg at a time making sure they do not touch each other. The edges of the applied wax should be full and not spread out flat or thin. A thick edge strip is easier to remove.

Wax is ready to remove when it is not sticky to touch. To remove wax, flick the lower edge of the wax strip upwards against the hair growth. While supporting the skin with one hand, pull wax strip off briskly.
