Best there is out there
Was looking through so many wax types and brands as I was looking to start waxing at home to save on costs. And then I finally settled on this one after doing research and looking through reviews and I am extremely pleased. I bought this to use in a wax pot (Mylee) and I've used it twice since I've got it. I have 3 sisters who all use it as well. Would say we've waxed a total of 4/5 times and we've only used about 1/4 of the pot, if not less. You only need a very thin layer and then stick some wax strip paper on top and rip. Getting just a thin layer was hard for me to master at first with a wood spatula but by the end of my first session I had gotten the hang of it. Its quite sticky but just wear gloves and be careful and you'll be fine. I normally sit on the floor to do it and just surround myself w newspaper so I don't get the wax anywhere on the floor. Its honestly just like a salon experience at home, if not better. Its so much cheaper, doesn't hurt as much and better in the sense that you are in control, so you can get even the smallest hairs that sometimes beauticians miss/ ignore. It doesn't irritate my skin and honestly couldn't fault the product. I bought this to use on my legs. 11/10 would recommend.

A decent wax for tackling larger areas
This is the first soft wax I've tried, and so far it's pretty good. I put the plastic pot directly into my wax warmer (I usually line the warmer with foil first, to make cleaning up any drips easier), and it takes about 40-50 minutes on high to get to an appropriately liquid, honey-like consistency.Unlike hard wax, I've discovered that this wax really does need to be quite liquid in order to apply thin enough layers, so I tend to keep my warmer on high while I'm waxing.My first wax was a bit of a bust, but I chalk that up to operator error. After all, if you're going to wax your own legs, you know you're in for a real project. The wax is VERY VERY sticky, which shouldn't be surprising as it's hair removal wax. For my second and third wax with this product, I wore disposable gloves, which made a real difference in terms of cleanup. But, now I've got the hang of waxing, and have my cleanup routine fairly sorted, it's become a great addition to my monthly routine.

Best Babyliss Wax I've used
I have been through quite a few of waxes since I bought my babyliss wax heater and although I was never unhappy with any of the products I used, this is by far the best one. Reasons are below:1. It is strong enough to get even the smallest hair out.2. It is not too strong so as to remove layers of your skin (this has happened before)3. The consistency of the paste is great! You can spread it thinly but it's not too runny so you don't make a mess.4. The fact that it's green makes it easy to spot on the skin and therefore, you won't end up with random bits of wax on your skin after you're done.Advise:If you are using a Babyliss Heater then turn it to full power at first. When the wax melts, turn it down to mark 6 (ouf of 10)and leave it for a few minutes to cool. If you can put it on the inside of your wrist and not feel discomfort, it's the right temperature. This is also a very good consistency to work with.Caution:This is a very strong wax so if you are not comfortable with waxing techniques, I would avoid it. Especially around your bikini area. It can bruise you or peel your skin if you don't know how to use it; this goes for all strong waxes thought, not just this one.

Great Product
Brought this for the first time, and have to say it is really good. My skin is soft and it easily removes hair. Based on other wax products i have used they leave my skin really dry. But this leaves my skin smooth and soft. Really happy with the product. Also after using it on both of my legs i still have lots left.

Sticky and Weak
It's the most stickiest wax I've ever used, which is strange because the hairs grow back extremely fast. I would have been fine with the mess if the wax worked. I find that half the hair grow back quicker than the rest which means it's not pulling the hairs from the roots. It's so annoying. The wax I had previously never had this problem. I could go longer without having to wax, but that was the peeling kind and it had it’s own problems.

Decent product
Decent product, does the job but need to wipe my legs with coconut oil to get it off completely as water doesn't do the trick.

Does what wax is suppose to do
The reason why I bought this wax is because of the aloe Vera and cucumber which I believe does soothe the skin and is more skin friendly. Never had my issues with it, I don’t think I’d recommend putting it into a microwave though, especially a full tub of it.

Best wax pot
I've tried other wax pots from this brand and other brands but they're not as good as this one. Great for my sensitive skin and easy to use.
