Nad's 100% Natural Sugar Wax Kit, Vegan, Hypoallergenic, No-heat Formula Waxing Sugar Paste, Includes 6 Wooden Spatulas, 10 Reusable 100% Cotton Strips, 1 Pre-wax Cleansing Soap & Sugar Wax 170g

Super product! I love the idea of waxing but I could never wax successfully and stress free (I first started with Veet strips, that left bruises on my skin and was a nightmare to clean up afterwards. I then found and tried sugar wax recipes online: they worked really well, but they take so much time for an uncertain result).I was looking for something that was healthy, easy to use and cheap, and found it all in this kit! The added touches of sustainability with the cotton strips and just the natural recipe made this even more perfect. As I explained, I’m really not a pro in waxing and had maybe done it like 4 times in my life before trying this, and I managed to use it with no problem. Works perfectly on the legs (as seen in my beautiful picture). A bit less perfect on the armpits, and I bled a little but that’s because my hair had become so thick from all the shaving so I’m not too worried about that, pretty sure the next few times will be fine. I am yet to try on my bikini area but I’m looking forward to it (whereas I dreaded this part with other waxes).One pot of wax can probably last for only one waxing of each of these accumulated body parts (so both legs, armpits as well as bikini in total once).The only negative point that I have found is that since the strips and applicators are reusable, I don’t really need to buy the full kit again, but I can’t seem to see an option of just buying the sugar wax for my next “session”. It would be a shame if I always had to buy the full kit, as the whole point of it is that its components are reusable.The other small issue was just that my room temperature was never enough so I had to go heat up the wax a few times during use, but I assume that it’s because of the general UK weather (I believe this is an Australian product so it’s normal that their room temperature is hotter).

The only other wax I've used before is pre-made strips of wax, which are fine but always leave that horrible residue afterwards and you start picking up fluff from everything (there's probably a way to get this off, but I haven't discovered it).I decided to try this sugar wax for my legs instead. The price is very fair in my opinion (approx £7 at the moment). It was easy to apply and you put a cotton strip provided over it and then tear off like normal. I was able to use the same strip 6-8 times before applying more wax and using a new strip. The best bit for me is that any sugar wax left on your skin afterwards comes off really easily with some soap and water, no residue left. Really pleased!

This is a nice little kit, suitable for small areas as I don't think there would be enough to do legs. However...the instructions weren't very clear regarding the use of the pre wax soap, ie should watter be added? (I did add as I wasn't sure) A bottle of aftercare lotion would be a great addition, fortunately I have some as I'm a beauty therapist. I bought this kit for use on a client for eyebrow waxing, tested on myself first. Very pleased with results. The wax/sugar itself is very dense and not easy to apply, would recommend warming slightly to loosen it up. Having said this, I thought it was great value for money and would buy again. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was no aftercare lotion and unclear re soap in the instructions, otherwise it most definitely would have been 5 stars.

I'm an experienced waxer, I use a hard wax and heater. However, I'd read about sugaring and watched a few videos and was intrigued to try something that's supposedly gentler, less painful (although I find hard wax fairly painless) and supposed to cause less ingrown hairs.Firstly after researching sugaring techniques and learning that it's supposed to be applied against the direction of the hair growth and pulled off with the hair growth, I was surprised to find the instructions on this product were the same as waxing (applied with growth, pulled off against). I was under the impression that the reason ingrown hairs are less likely with this is because of the direction the sugar is supposed to be pulled, meaning that it will encourages hair re-growth in its natural direction.Secondly, the consistency was too thin and sticky. Not runny enough to apply for strip waxing and not hard enough to use for the ball and flick method. And there's no way I'm heating it up, I might as well use my normal wax. Lol. It's also has left my skin sore, bruised and red and barely took the hair out of the root.It arrived mostly stuck to the foil lid so a lot of product was lost.I would love a refund because this is awful and a complete waste of money, but as I've opened it to try it I'm not sure how likely that will be.
