This can not be good for your skin

I had a very frustrating experience using this wax. There were many problems but the prominent among them were that it required very frequent heating and is EXTREMELY STICKY. It just would not come off my skin, even with soap water. Oil helped a little but wasn't easy. ANYTHING THAT STICKS SO BAD CAN NOT BE GOOD FOR YOUR SKIN. In the long run, you will see it's effects. I experienced some after effects (dryness, etc.) but that could be just me. But, I am not going to use it again.

i couldn't get this stuff off of me after waxing. it's very very sticky and NOT water soluble so you end up with a big mess! Also, the wax did not easily spread over my arms.
really disappointed. A total waste of money!!!!!

Found that this product works fast and easy. Can be a bit messy but I don't have to have a special warming device. If you run out of strips go to a fabric store and get a couple of yards of Muslin with no coating. It is a similar product and just cut up the fabric into the same size strips as what came in the box and you will always have extra strips cheap.
Good Product

I have been getting waxed at salons for a few years now so I know the process. If you've ever been to a salon to get waxed, you should have no problem with this product at all. I agree with the previous comment, you have to get the wax at the right temperature for it to just glide on but the directions on the bottle and insert were pretty accurate. The only issue I had was I did not use all the wax the first time around. The second time I went to use it there was wax on the roller which made it REALLY sticky to roll on. It wasn't impossible, just makes me want to find roller heads so I can use a new one each time and avoid having to use the whole bottle in one sitting. But overall its just as good as the salon - Only cheaper!
Not a bad product

The roller doesn't quite work that great unless you have the wax at the PERFECT temperature. It's not exactly clean or easy as the product's name would lead you to think either. However, I do think it's an overall better product than the wax you apply with a stick. The oil does get the wax off but I would definitely recommend an anti-bump spray or lotion to minimize the amount of bump on the waxed area. Also, my MAJOR issue with this wax product is THE WAX STRIPS RUN OUT WAAAAAY BEFORE THE WAX. You're left with a half bottle of wax but no strips to remove the wax. That was extremely annoying!!
Amazing product

very efficient process, follow the warming intructions and you wonder why you didn't find about this product sooner!!
Horrible

Getting the way OFF your skin once you're done is simply a pain. Of course trying to wash this stuff off with water won't work. The oil barely got the wax off my skin. Really disappointed
quick, effective, lasting wax

I liked this product a lot. It removes almost all hair in little time. The results are long lasting. The only reason I gave it four stars is because the strips in the box are of low quality and break easily. There aren't enough strips in the box either. So you should buy some strips separately.
Good Product

The wax in this product is superb. I think the delivery system needs some work. For legs it worked well. For my underarms, I eventually took off the roller squeezed the product onto an applicator, because the roller was ripping out hair as I applied the wax, and the wax would simply stick to hair on the roller instead of my skin.
I would buy this product again.
this product is fast and easy to use.

Worked great. Super easy and fast. Only problem is the roller did gum up a little. I will be using this product for all my future leg waxing endeavors.
great product

this was the wax product i Have ever used, although it dosen't wash off in water. so it is time consuming to get rid of the sticky residue.
Quick and Easy!

I've been waxing for years and found this product easy to use and very effective. The only downside is that it's very sticky so it's not that easy to roll it on (it hurts more doing this than actually pulling off the strips!) But that said, it's still better and more affordable than most other home waxing products on the market. And I love the microwave heating method. I would definitely recommend this product.
the Best!

I have been using this for a few years now. I love it. I picked it up because I was tired of warmers and extra stuff - this is a no fuss way to wax! It is great for legs, bikini and underarms! Just remember to play with warm-up times - microwaves very; if the wax isn't hot enough it is stickier going on and doesn't lift as well. Also be sure area to be waxed is clean and dry - any moisture ruins the effect and hair will barely remove at all - especially if you use this product for the bikini and under arms as I do. Try a little powder in moist areas before applying. If you use the same bottle for more than a couple of uses the applicator gets gummed up - just pick up a package of replacements - 3 to a box, inexpensive - and keep going! Like I said this is the easiest ever. If it didn't work as well for you, give it another try.

Perfect for legs. It's very sticky, and very thin, and as a result of this, it kinda hurts rolling it on, but it is faster and easier than pot with spatula wax, and way more effective than premade strips. I can do both legs in 15 minutes with this stuff. But it's hard to clean and save the rest of the container, it gets really stick. and that's a pita.
Love this stuff!

This wax is easy to work with. I cut the strips into 4 pieces so they'll last. It's easier to work with the wax when you put it in a small section anyway. It's really not that painful. MUCH less painful & safer than a laser treatment!!!
Very easy to use, faster than spatula versions

I'm so-so at waxing, not an expert, not a novice. But I can wax both my lower legs in 15 minutes with this roll on waxer, versus 45 minutes of using the type with a container and spatula. I love that you can roll it on, and it comes out thin, which means you can use the same strip several times, as oppose to just a few times with tub/spatula waxes that tend to go on thicker. I needed to remicrowave once i started the 2nd leg. The worst part is that it actually hurts while rolling it on! that is because the wax is such a tacky consistancy. But i'll endure that pain to save myself 1/2 hour any time.
