Satin Smooth Ultra Sensitive Zinc Oxide Pot Wax, 14 oz

This review is for: Satin Smooth Aloe Vera Pot Wax, 14 Ounce since there are a few different types of wax in this listing. I have never waxed my legs before. I go to a person for my face and was always frustrated with shaving my legs (so I rarely did it). I decided to give it a go and purchased this wax after reading the reviews. I have to say, it was super easy to use and I love the results!! Some tips though ... First of all this particular wax is NOT a hard wax (there is a hard wax in the listing, but this one is not), so be sure to buy strips to pull the wax up with. You will also need wooden sticks to spread it out with and something to melt the wax. Upon reading another review, I went with a candle warmer instead of the more expensive wax melter thingy. It worked perfectly! But you have to give the wax time to melt. I would say mine took about an hour to get to the right consistency. It will make your life so much easier if you just wait until it's a little thinner. It will spread much easier on your skin. If you are brand new to waxing your legs, I highly suggest laying down an old towel and be patient. It may get messy, but once you have the method down, it works perfectly. When you put the fabric strip over the wax, rub it down real good, getting the edges of the wax and everything. Run your knuckles over the whole strip 3 or 4 times to be sure it adheres well and the edges are really caught. I saw my wax lady do this and it really helps with getting all the edges up when you pull. Most likely you will have residual sticky stuff on your skin, something like GiGi's wax remover will help with that. My skin is so soft and smooth after using this! Normally I have leg stubble about half a day after shaving. It has now been a full 24 hours since I waxed and my legs are still so smooth. I am in love!

I purchased the Aloe Vera wax. I was looking for a hard wax. Product did not indicate strip needed for removal as displayed online. Tried the wax on my inner arm just in case, better to be safe, realized it wasn’t drying, come to find out it’s soft wax and requires a strip to remove upon finding the directions in fine print on the bottom of the container. Luckily I hadn’t put the wax on a delicate area, and had a small strip to remove the product. Despite my inability to research more on this product, it preformed well. Initial impression was quite alarming considering I was prepared for a hard wax easy removal but, I will use at some point in the future.

Love this wax, pulls every single hair.

A 14 oz cream-soft wax formulated with zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, and mineral emollients. Designed specifically for acne-prone, ultra-sensitive, and delicate skin—ideal for fine to medium hair removal.Satin Smooth’s Ultra Sensitive Zinc Oxide Soft Wax is an excellent choice for anyone with sensitive or breakout-prone skin. It delivers gentle yet effective hair removal, soothing benefits, and esthetician-level performance. Just be mindful of heating and check packaging upon arrival.

As someone who’s used liquid wax for a long time, I can say that this wax is amazing. It definitely works well for fine to medium hair (upper lip), and grips the hair without hurting the skin. Got a clean pull on the first try.There are some things to be aware of though before purchasing:- the strips and applicator are NOT included. you’ll need to purchase your own strips and wooden applicators- the container is really unwieldy - when you open the wax, even in a cool environment, it practically oozes out and it’s difficult to close again because the wax seeps out and around the lid- it says you need a warmer for this — I had (mistakenly) assumed that I could just use a microwave. maybe do, but the directions mention a warmer. I ended up taking a little bit of the wax and microwaving it in a bowlSo overall - great wax, just be aware of these details

OMG. I have been waxing myself from head to toe since I was 12 years old... thats more or less about 15 years experience now!!! I have always been a fan of GIGI all honey purpose wax! Its perfect, grabs on to the hair from the root and with one quick pull VOILA all goneeeeeee..... and after a while it DOESNT EVEN HURT!!!! NOT EVEN when you wax in the most sensitive of areas!!!!!I decided I wanted to try Satin smooth organic wax, merely bc of all the reviews and I said HEY WHY NOT, its Satin, its smooth and its organic!... I bought this plus an additional gigi JUST INCASE. I decided to try the satin organic wax. The smell is just fine, the texture is so creamy! its more of lotion than the kind of wax that I am use to. I put it into my warmer as I always do--- and let it heat up for the usual 45 mins. The wax was warm but not hot and so i thought okay well this should be fine... i tried on a small patch of my underarms... quick Pull and NOTHING CAME OUT!!!! and OMG OMG OMG OMG HOW DAMNNNNN PAINFUL! I put some more wax on the same patch to try and remove it....and another pull and nothing!!!!I managed to try this about 5 or 6 times on the one patch before some was gone...I had to do this for my entire armpit... it was so painful that I can't even describe it!!!!What normally takes me 10 or so minutes to do, both armpits that is, took me 2 hours and 15 mins!!!!!! NOT including the heating up time!!!! It was not until I decided to put on my cooling aloe vera gel for post waxes that the burning became unbearable. I was unable to sleep on my arms last night...and all clothing that touches my armpit hurt. I couldn't even put on my backpack as the lightest touch of the strap was unbearable. My underarms are completely erythematous and swollen!!!!I WISH I CAN RETURN THIS!!!! as IT IS 10 or so dollars for excruciating pain and time consumption.The can says ideal for all kinds of hair think and coarse. I have latin roots and therefore i have very thick thick thick black coarse hair..... i don't know if this is the reason of the hair not coming out so easily, or if this kind of wax is just not ideal, or maybe this kind of wax has a special type of instructions to use on underarms.I will have to now deal with the red painful pitts, and probably a dark scar afterwards!! DONT BUY THIS.

Love this wax ! Came quick
