GiGi Brazilian Bikini Wax Microwave Kit

I thought this before my holiday and it was brilliant! I read all of the reviews on here and thought let's give it a go! Everyone is different with different opinions. Yes it's hard to control the temp but all you have to do is reheat for another 30secs (depending on the strength of your microwave) just keep stirring with the sticks provided. There is no risk of burning on the skin as you are heating in 30 sec intervals. I'm sure anyone can tell if something is really really hot!! If you have overheated say, just keep stirring to cool slightly down to right temp for your skin Prep the area, ( for me it was the bikini) with the provided oils. I found them all to be really effective in the 'pain process' of waxing with hard wax. Make sure the hairs aren't too long as this makes the waxing even more painful! Start with small areas (makes it less painful and quick to pull off) spread with the spatula provided quite evenly against the direction of the hairs, leave to dry for about 30 secs? Or hard to touch and then lift a corner from the skin covered and yank it off!!! Yes it leaves a residue of wax on the skin but you are also provided with a cream to ensure it all comes off at the end so don't worry! Just keep going! Yes it makes a mess everywhere! So ensure your worktop is covered with an old cloth and the floor too with an old towel! Preferably a large one! Continue to work the whole area til done. If it starts to go a little hard in the pot just reheat. This is the best hard wax no strip required treatment I have ever used and I tell you it leaves no hairs behind! If there is just grab it with a tweezer. Seriously I was well impressed! Use the slow growth oil provided after each shower every night. I would recommend for sure! Thumbs up from me! Never ever again will I go to the waxing salon or use any high street products again....girls this is the one....

I ordered this product about a month and a bit ago. based on a review i saw from a young girl on youtube. the picture on the website does not look like the same item. pacakaging perhaps has changed however this is the product i received - i have put the link on the official gigi site so u can see what it looks like- white and yellow. Brazilian Bikini Microwave Kit Item Number: #0911 [...] the product is the first proper home microwave Brizian Bikini wax kit i've ever bought. b4 this i've tried bikini wax strips and and creams etc even epilating. may i say- forget all about them. just get this kit! abt this kit. u get the wax- it's green and doenst smell bad. almost like coconut 1 cleansing thing to clean the area then a epilating oil u rub so the wax doesnt stick to your skin but the hair and trust me this is why it doent hurt! it really shocked me as to why it didnt hurt! it's amazing. with it u also get a wax off cream to remove any wax left on your skin- but cuz u use th oil it really doesnt stick to your skin so u really dont end up using it. the othre bottle is the slow grow cream, so that the hair doesnt grow back faster... i havent really used that cos i wanted to see how fast it grows back without. oh u alos get wooden spatulas small and big abt waxing u need to microwave it for abt 40 secs and then they say it should be fine, but it really is not ready.. make sure after the fisrt40 u try to give it a stir as it's hard at the top but coud have melted in the middle. anyways, wait another minute b4 u heat it up again. reason being if u let it microwave in one long go the wax becomes sticky and streachy like bubble gum once hard. and u cant really wax with it or pull as it just streaches. if u find the wax doing this let it cool a bit/harden a bit and then reheat in squences of 30 secs with a minute in between till it's like flowing caramel .. u only need a thin layer like a 2-3mm thickness spearead. and even really short hair comes off like 4-5mm! apply in the direction of hair growth and pull on the opposite as flat and close to the skin as possible and hold the skin taught. start wit the bikini line areas and work from down upwards as it's more sensitive closer to the top of your .... the secret there is to wax in smaller areas like a 1x0.5 inch of wax strip area or less the first time around. the second time round of waxing it was much less painful almost like waxing your arm. hardly felt. my hair is thick and so this really is the best wax ever! i've tried other brands but they were nothing like this. i love waxing with this. even gentle to do underarms- did mine in just one application and go! excellent no pain at all! and even did my upper lip! love this product. hope it helps u.. first time was a bit dareing secong time was easy. i aslo bought a after wax cooling gell from gigi. really good stops any rednss or bumps- i used it it to cool my tummy area after waxing.

I'm very very pleased with this kit, I'm so happy I read the reviews and let it convince me to give it a try. The products help so much to make the entire process less painful and a lot faster! I used to use other brands that started to disappoint me, with a wax breaking and sticking, getting very messy... This one is great, easy to warm in the microwave and it doesn't break. The colour makes it easy to see, and most of all, the products (pre hon, slow grow etc.) help from the start to the end and it's not messy if you follow the steps and take the time. I'm a lot less reluctant to wax than before, as it feels a lot easier. Looking at the size of the pot though, I might look at the other Gigi products with the wax heater to save money, but there is no doubt I'll stick to this brand.

I tried this kit and it was okay, the wax sadly got gloopy and thick too quickly which was not very convenient. Better than others that I have tried but think I will stick to the Salons from now on.

This product works. It removed all hair and was easy enough to use. My order came with non-English instructions for some reason, which was annoying, but I read reviews and figured out how to use it. It did require reheating throughout the process and you do have to have courage to tear off the wax fast once it hardens! This is the toughest part. The wax off solution didn't work well unfortunately, but other than that I have no complaints. Good value for money considering I pay £33 in the salon per wax.

Es la mejor cera que he probado y las cremitas con las que viene ayudan a Preparar la piel para no irritarla al momento de la depilación. La he comprado ya 3 veces. Mi favorita!

To be fair,5 stars rating is belongs to the effectiveness itself. I am not please with the packing and some other experiences with this product. First of all, it got a huge melted hole on the wax while I open it. http://s27.postimg.org/4l8zde8sj/image.jpg Is that a used product? Or just simply because it accidentally melted during the transition? You decide. Second, it said don't pop in the microwave for more than a minute, but, I microwaved almost 2 mins to get it ready. Please be very careful, the surface might not look ready but it's boiling inside. Give it a good stir for every 30 seconds due to the setting of your microwave. Compare to the brand I used before, that one comes with a warmer but it took almost two hours to heat it up, so I prefer this for quick use. Also, please read through the instruction. Apply the oil come with the package before you wax. The wax sticks to ANYTHING. Especially your nails. Those little bottles run out quickly so you could use some baby oil instead. Forget about the" pre hon" it's just some alcohol to drys out your skin. Be aware of it if you have sensitive skin. I didn't use the others bottles so I am not going to comment on those. It's quite painful and the wax itself is quite soft compared to other brands. Let it cool completely and pull it as fast as you can to minimize the pain. Overall it's a very effective product. Get its job done really well and at least 90% of the hair is out in one attempt. It's cheap and it could last you quite a while. I hope it could keep improving.

I bought this in the heart of the pandemic when my salon was forced to close. Was so easy, didn't hurt, and such a great savings compared to the salon - so I'm going to keep DIY waxing!

Excellent product for all those who want a clean nice genitalia and underarms

Quick and easy to use, very effective, good for sensitive skin and additional products are very nice as well.
