Special Notes
- Don’t use any fabric or reusable strips for more than 6 times. After every washing, the thin and lightweight fabric strips start to wear off.
- It’s better to use a set of strips only for a specific type of wax formula. Waxing with the same strips but using different formulas isn’t a good idea. Residues of different formulas can infuse with each other and harm your skin.
- Read the skincare guide carefully to get an effective result from your routine waxing.
