Nad's Eyebrow Wax Kit

I'm guessing the people who put negative reviews for this just didn't do it right because when you follow the directions it is awesome. I'm going to do a step-by-step here of what worked for me. First step, if the gunk is cold then you need to warm it up. The directions say you can place it in some warm water or rub it between your hands. I stuck it in my bra while I read the directions. Consistency was perfect after about five minutes. I'm pointing this out because I think it's important and could be another cause of the other complaints about the product if the users didn't warm it up first. Next, wash your face with clarifying face wash (I literally used dish soap because I had heavy moisturizer on). Next, use the included towelettes to wipe the area where you will be using the product and dry thoroughly. Also, the directions say to NOT do this right after a shower because something about your skin being too soft or something. Not a problem here. I did not shower before, but just thought I would point that out because that could be another reason it didn't work for other people. After the towelette, thoroughly dry the skin. I used this for my eyebrows only. The directions also say your hairs need to be a certain length for this to work. Again, no problem here because mine were lookin' straight sasquatch - quite long. But, again, could be another reason it didn't work for some people. When you're ready to begin, have a good magnifying mirror, preferably with a light, unless you can see really good up close, which I can't. I bought one here on Amazon when I bought this stuff, and I got some awesome tweezers too. I'll try to find links and post them. The mirror has a USB plug. Perfect. Anyway, I digress. So, take the tube of gunk (now warmed by your body heat) and twist the end several times until you see it start to come out of the tube. This next part is important, apply it to the hairs you want to remove IN THE DIRECTION THE HAIR GROWS, meaning from the roots to the ends. Next, quickly take the little fabric strip and place it over the gunk and rub it 3 to 4 times in one direction, THE DIRECTION THE HAIR GROWS - not back and forth, just one direction from roots to ends sort of smoothing it down into the gunk. Third, grab the strip of fabric with one hand and place your other hand on the skin to hold it taut and quickly rip it off the OPPOSITE direction - meaning, grab the strip at the ends of the hairs, not the root end. You pull AGAINST THE DIRECTION THE HAIR GROWS. This is VERY important and I know could be a reason that it didn't work for other people because I accidentally did this more than once. No hairs came off on the strip when I yanked and then I realized I had yanked from the root end, not the other end and the hair did not come out. If you do it right and yank in the correct direction, like magic, all of your hair will come out and be stuck to the fabric strip. The strips are reusable and the gunk is water soluble and just washes off so if you accidentally get it where you don't want to remove your hair you can just wash it off and start over. You rinse the strips when you're done too and it comes right out. I don't know what this stuff is made out of, but for me it worked perfectly. I couldn't be happier. And way less of a pain in the arse than trying to melt actual wax and have it be the right temperature and all that. No way! If your brows are lookin' squatchy and you don't want to go to the salon, use this stuff.

Don’t waste your money. If you have coarse hair This does not work. It didn’t even remove one eyebrow hair for me. & I followed the directions. The concept is cool but the product doesn’t Work.

I have been having the worst time trying to find an at-home eyebrow kit. I can never seem to get to the salon regularly enough to keep my brows shaped up nicely, and even when I do go they tend to take off too much. I am in my early forties and my brows have started to thin some, so I really can't afford to have too much taken. Therefore it increased my resolve to find a way to do it at home. Wax kits were too messy and for me a little hard to control where everything went. My usual method has been tweezing but it is beyond tedious and just never has that crisp look I yearn for. Then I found this kit. I am so happy!! It's really pretty easy: You just open one of the little wipe packets to cleanse the area first (once you run out of these make-up removal wipes or baby wipes supposedly work just as well). Then you take the lid off of the pen, and twist it a few times until the gel forms a bead on the angled tip. You swipe the tip of the wand just under your brow line and into the area below wherever there is hair you wish to remove. You don't need to heat it up as it becomes warm from your body temperature. That is very convenient! You then take one of the included muslin strips and smooth it in the direction the hair grows in. For instance, the hair normally grows in the area closer to your nose and grows out toward your temple. So you would place the first edge of the muslin near the inside brow corner near your nose and smooth it firmly over the gel outwards toward the end of your brow - the end nearest your temple. Use your finger to smooth it over again if necessary to make sure there are no bumps, etc. Then you will put your fingers at the end of your brow near your temple and stretch the skin back some. The hair comes off easier when your skin is stretched. Then you grasp the end of the muslin near that end of the brow with your other hand and quickly but smoothly pull it off against the direction your hair grows in - or in other words, toward your nose. When done correctly this should cleanly remove the unwanted hair. You can then do the same in other areas around the brow - on the outside above the brow, in the center between the brow, you get the picture. Sometimes there may be a little residue left over from the gel you have just used and you will want to wipe it clean with the wipe or a new one before proceeding. If you have a stray or two at the end it's generally best to tweeze those. You can then rinse the muslin under warm water and rub it clean. It is actually re-usable if you wash it off. That is something else I really love about this. I have used this several times and there is still plenty left. I have definitely found my ultimate Eyebrow Shaping Product. Literally so happy - it's about time!!

I think this is good to use and keep for an emergency fix - forget your brow appointment, take on vacation just incase, etc. I got this to try and stop getting my brows threaded, and just found myself using too much wax to clean my brows to not make the cost worth it. I don't have overly hairy brows, and after using this product, used 1/3 of it, and realized this wasn't going to work. I'd probably repurchase if I was going on vacation to carry with me.

I never wrote reviews but this is a must. Let first start off by saying my eyebrows are mircoshaded, but it’s been 5 years since I’ve done them. The wax is definitely better when you place the pen in a cup of warm water, it flows much easier and it’s easier to control in my opinion. The wax is pretty sticky but the cotton strips just doesn’t grip it as well and I tried both sides of the strip. I had to apply the wax twice on the bottom and top of both of my brows. But just like in the salon once you wax your brows, they clean it up with the tweezers, brush and the scissors to trim the hair the same applies at home. It took me approximately a solid 20 minutes, but it was worth it.

NOT impressed! The application of the "wax" was great, but it was not very effective in removing the hairs! I ended up having to use a tweezer to remove most the unwanted eyebrow hairs. The cloth strips were WORTHLESS! Luckily I had some other cloth strips that worked MUCH better than the strips provided in the kit. I would not reccommend or purchase the kit again.

I'm mixed race with olive skin and jet black hair. Normally I moustache you not to mention my facial hair, but with this product I have it all under control. My sister and I have been using this for a few years now, after both previously relying on hot wax. This product is far superior. Easy to use, mess free, portable and extremely precise. However, it is a natural product and you do need to follow these rules to ensure a good result. 1) Skin should be clean and dry AND atmosphere must be dry. Do not use in a humid bathroom, it will not work. The skin must be completely dry for the product to adhere correctly. My sister lives in Singapore and can only use this with the aircon turned on, otherwise the humidity stops it working. 2) The product must be warmed to a runny honey like consistency first. Rubbing it between your palms will not suffice. I do this by using my body heat -put it in the crook of your knee for five minutes to warm it up. 3) If you run out of strips, rinse them in warm water and leave to dry. They can be re-used!

Its basically useless it does not remove anything

Bel prodotto. Facile da usare. Consente di tracciare una linea be. precisa per fare la ceretta alle sopracciglia. Non sporca e non cola. Buon prodotto.

Great product!! East to use and works well.

It didn't work for me, little to no hairs were removed. I will try again as I have never used this before and am still figuring it out. The cotton strips were hard to use :/ But I have heard it has done wonders for some people :)
