Parissa Natural Sugar Wax Kit for Face, Lip & Body – Hair Removal Wax for Fine to Medium Hair, Microwavable, Water-Washable, Reusable Strips, 140 ml (5 fl oz)

If you’re first timer to waxing, read the instructions before you experiment. There’s a certain to sugar and pull. Overall it’s really easy to use. Organic product makes it safe for your skin. The cloth is reusable after wash. I already finished this and now onto the professional. Would repeat this order again and again.

I had a dilemma today. I needed to wax today and realized that I forgot to order my usual wax kit on Amazon in advance. I looked for a possible same day delivery in my area and came across this one. As usual, I read through the reviews to see if this will be a good fit for me. I read many complaints about how sticky and messy this sugar wax is and how it doesn’t pick up all the hairs. However I bit the bullet and decided to take a chance since I’m on a time crunch. It is my first time using sugar wax so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’ve been waxing for about 3 years now, and even though I don’t consider myself a professional by any means, I thought I would take out the time to give some advice as I was able to have a good waxing experience with Parissa organic sugar wax. Before I give you my tips, please read their instruction pamphlet. Please buy a wax warmer - I cannot imagine doing waxing without one. Here are my tips: 1) Set the intention of having a good waxing experience. Get your phone/tablet and put some music on or if you’re like me, make this a time to listen to a self improvement podcast. 2) Find an old bed sheet that you don’t mind getting dirty and lay it on the floor where you will wax. Buy parchment paper and set some sheets where you will be waxing. Have baby powder, and a scissor to be able to cut your strips for the right size when doing smaller areas. They say that the strips with this kit are reusable since you can wash them. Sorry but that’s a bit too much for me. I’d rather stick to buying more strips and throwing them out after one use. Home waxing is much cheaper than a professional wax at a salon. You will need extra wax strips. Buy an extra set and always have one more just in case you need it. Don’t reuse the same strip if you’re trying to avoid messy situations or irritated skin/brushing. 3) Have proper lighting! Great lighting goes a long way. 4) Have a paper bag on the side exclusively to throw out your used strips. 5) Have a standing face mirror and tweezer available for any quick plucking if needed. 6) I use coconut oil afterwards and lather it on my skin to remove any wax and it also leaves your skin very soft. Go take a shower and you are all done till next time! I hope these tips will help any beginners out there who are struggling with home waxing and remember that you will become better each time you do it. Have patience and save lots of $$$ doing it for yourself and also not missing any spots at all!

Not good for thick or course/stubborn hairs. It didn't pull out from the root, only the surface. I even used in areas were hairs were not thick and again it wasn't strong enough to pull from the root. It also stays tacky and sticky so if your skins warm or if there is any humidity in your room, it wont pull off cleanly no matter how tightly you hold your skin. Only good think about this is that it is water soluable so it wipes of clean with warm water. I would no recommend for thick hair at all. You will be left with patches and the hair will still be in the root and grow back quicker. I even used for my eyebrows where the hair is finer and it also did not wax cleanly or get any of the fine hairs.

It works very well, feels no chemicals since it’s honey. Also some suggestions if you run out of the paper in the box , you can use the one time wash face paper instead. It works well on my bikini area too.

It’s only good for thin hair

Pros ~ organic formula and reusable strips are super easy to clean. The sugar wax itself is pretty easy to use and a little goes a long way. Not as painful as I imagined either! Cons ~ need some way to heat the wax (I don’t use or have microwave), my legs broke out in little red bumps, didn’t catch all the hair (which was long enough) and didn’t make it super smooth like I’d hoped.

Easy to use, especially for beginners just be sure not to heat it up too much

Did not work well at all. I’ve been waxing myself for over 20 years. I got this as I was going to be away for 1.5 months and would need to wax about halfway through and didn’t want the mess of taking my whole kit with me. I used microwaveable waxes for the first 10ish years of me waxing and CVS brand did great until they stopped selling it. Any who, I have experience with microwave wax. This didn’t remove all of the hair. Left my legs very patchy so I waxed multiple times and still didn’t get my legs smooth. I tried to return the unused kit I got and when my husband took it to staples at least 15 days before the return window was over they wouldn’t accept the QR code. He went to another staples and it wouldn’t work either. Now the window is over and I’m stuck with a wax I’ll never use as it does not work. I gave 2 stars at It did remove about half of my hair and it is easy to clean up.

I've been through the waxing spiral. Too scared to get laser, so I cycled through professional appointments, DIY kits, and even a stint making my own sugar wax during COVID. After all of that trial and error, I wasn't expecting a store-bought sugaring wax to genuinely impress me. I'm almost annoyed at how good it is. I've wasted so much time before trying it. I've been using it consistently on bikini and underarms for three months now and the results have been the best I've experienced across the board. The pulls are clean, the wax has impressive staying power during use, and I'm currently sitting at ten days post-wax feeling completely smooth with no prickling regrowth. Over three months of consistent use I've personally noticed hair coming back finer each time, something I haven't experienced to this degree with other methods where broken hairs were always part of the deal. What genuinely surprised me most was my skin's response. I typically come away from waxing, even professional appointments, with significant redness, swelling, and multiple ingrown hairs. With this wax I've experienced none of the redness or swelling, and at most one ingrown hair per session. For anyone with sensitive skin that difference is hard to overstate. It also doesn't leave my skin dry or tight the way some hard waxes do, and because it's sugar-based cleanup is as simple as warm water. I can finally stop buying expensive post-wax oils and wipes that never worked that well anyway. As for the reusable strips, I didn't even know this was going to be a detail I cared about but here I am, now appreciating them. After use I let them soak in hot water in the sink while I clean up, run them under warm water with my hands, and hang them to dry. No soap required. Knowing I'm not throwing away disposable strips every time sits well with me. One practical tip worth noting: put the container in a bowl before microwaving to avoid burning yourself on hot wax, a small thing that makes a real difference. Also follow the visual instructions on strip removal direction and force. I didn't think I needed to but read them out of curiosity and sure enough, it made a difference for me. This quantity lasts a long time, the learning curve is minimal, and worst case if anything goes wrong warm water rinses everything off cleanly. I'd recommend this to quite literally anyone, but especially those with sensitive skin who have struggled with post-wax irritation and beginners who want a forgiving, low-mess option. If you're primarily a hard wax user the technique is slightly different and worth reading up on before your first try.

If you have never waxed at home before, this definitely takes some trial and error. A lot of comments saying to apply it AGAINST the hair growth... don't do this. Apply it DOWN your leg (not up), and tear the strip UPWARDS, and use a THIN layer; really get it warmed up, don't use it thick. The thinner the layer the better. 3rd go doing it and my results for legs and armpits are awesome and barely hurts unlike the first time, and the strip things can just be rinsed and dried. Do recommend - you just have to get the hang of it. Sad about the price hike on this one; happy to buy on special.

It works well, the strips are washable which is really handy, it's a bit messy and sticky but just wiped straight off with warm water, unlike wax which seems to hang around forever. I did miss some bits but I expected that with my first time using it. My only negative is rhat I used half a tub on two legs, but that might have been because I wasn't quite doing it right to start with and was putting it on too thick, got the hang of it now though

It's a really good wax. Make sure to melt it before use; otherwise, it can be quite painful. Once warmed properly, it applies smoothly, grips the hair well, and provides a strong hold for effective hair removal. The results last a long time, and the wax is easy to work with. 100% recommend.
