Rio Body Waxing Hair Removal Kit - Professional At Home Waxing with Heater, Stripless Hard Wax & Soft Wax for Smooth Hair Removal, Includes Wooden Spatulas, Suitable for Legs, Arms, Bikini & Body

Prior to buying this I bought a microwavable hard wax product and at £13 a pot (which only lasted one full leg and arm pit wax)it was costing me the earth. Then going to a beauty salon was costing over £40 a month. So when I saw this I thought I'd give it a go. I researched all the other items on the market and this is by far the best. This is an excellent product, you get everything you need in the box (except for pre and post waxing lotion which you can get really cheap online). You get 3 hard wax tablets - one is enough to do brazilian and arm pit wax - one large tub of soft wax which takes about an hour to heat up the first time you use it. The heater has two heat settings so once the wax is hot enough you can turn the heat down to keep wax soft and warm which is fantastic - unlike the microwavable waxes that only stay warm for 5 minutes! It makes such a difference because you can take your time waxing. Also included are 100 spatulas, 100 paper strips which are really easy to use with soft wax. I used about 25 strips just doing a full leg wax so will have to buy more soon. The only downside to this set is the sticky wax. It does get everywhere if you're not careful. I laid an old towel on floor and put heater etc on top of it during wax. After you've finished you can use the wax cleaner oil provided to remove any wax residue. Also you get full instructions and a 10min dvd which shows how to do all types of waxing (except brazilian). The hard wax is great for bikini,facial and underarm wax, and the soft wax is great for legs. An excellent result - exactly like when in a salon. The only time you might need help is to get to those hard to reach areas... or use a mirror?!!? 10 out of 10 and a great way to save £40 a month!!!

I have read all the reviews on this product before ordering it and also I read a lot of information and instructions on how to wax at home (I've been waxing at a beauty salon for 12 years now) and there was one little review by namford that discouraged me in purchasing the kit...thank God for my boyfriend who told me otherwise! let me tell you that namford is quite wrong apparently from my own experience; yes, it takes an hour to heat the soft wax but then again you have one hour to prepare yourself for waxing, after that if you'll set the warmer on level I it will keep it warm all the time you need; if you're careful enough you won't spill any wax on the warmer or on anything else (keep in mind this comes from someone who has never maneuvered such things herself); the soft wax will successfully melt in exactly one hour like the instructions say and if you need some edge to get the excess off the spatula then you can easily use the inner edge of the soft wax plastic container, it won't drip, just get the hand of it!; you don't need to try and transfer the soft wax onto the metal pan, that's a waste of time and it will cause frustration, the plastic container will heat up all the wax just keep in mind to mix it once every 10-15 minutes and when 60 mins pass then just put the warmer on level I heating and you're good to go, no fuss!; the metal pan it's really useful for the hard wax tablets remember to melt just a bit at a time for the areas you need because the hard wax will melt in 10 minutes at level II heating; the wax remover is brilliant, it works on your equipment as well as on your skin if needed, I personally used after wax oil for the sticky bits on my body and it works like a charm; beneath the warmer I put four double rolls of kitchen paper just in case, although I never had a spill; after waxing make sure you leave the warmer, the metal pan and the platic container of soft wax to fully cool and then you can use the solution remover to clean them up; remember if you melted a small amount of hard wax in the pan then it will be really easy to clean and put away; I personally love the packaging and after cleaning everything I just put them in their place and store them in the original way they came, it really is super easy and nice; the quality of the wax if properly melted and maintained at the level I temperature it will be really awesome and won't burn your skin and the hair will be removed with ease from the first application on the selected area, and you can reach the wanted temperature with the guidance of the instructions and the dvd, no worries; personally I ordered another 2 soft wax containers because this wax from Rio really works for me, and I'm a brunette so I guess that says it all :-D finally you won't be left with no hairy wax which will need reheating because all the wax used on your body will be thrown away! Dooh! I am recommending this product for anyone out there that is willing to try waxing at home! Bare in mind that the tricky part is actually studying your body hair and the way it grows so you will know how to apply the wax and how to remove it successfully. I don't recommend having a bath after waxing because the waxed areas are sensitive, this will be explained in the dvd, just use a pre and after waxing oil because you took a bath before waxing. The only item you need to buy separately is the oil, I brought the Hive 400 ml with Frangipani and Monoi Oil 2-in-1 Pre and After Wax Oil and it works like a charm; make sure to make a supply of waxing strips because I used the strips of the kit on my legs and I ordered some more online. I waxed my legs, arms, armpits and, of course, I fully waxed my personal place (that's how I normally wax at the beauty salon) and I'm really pleased with the results. Overall I give this kit a 5 star, really awesome!

The product was delivered on time. I bought this to try to wax myself.First I was a little worried about wax quality, temperature and not to let the wax break when puling it out. Surprise. It was easier than I thought, it didnt hurt any more than if i was in a beauty saloon. Very easy to use, easy instructions. The temperature was good, it didnt get to hot. Another good thing, is that you have the option of heating the soft wax in its own pot, and there is a small pan to heat the hard wax, so you dont needto use the same conteiner to both types of wax. Very good product, and goodprice if compare to other kits. I highly recommend.

Good

excellent

Lo compre para mis hijas, y están encantadas con la calidad del producto y los resultados que obtienen. Recomendable por la experiencia que me dicen.

Produit conforme à sa description. Pratique, ne prend pas trop de place. Mais la cire soft dégoulinait un peu de son pot, et une fois qu'on en a ne serait ce qu'un tout petit peu sur les doigts, difficile de s'en débarrasser. Le produit livré censé retirer la cire est peu efficace. La cire est de bonne qualité, mais se consomme vite et les recharges sont chères ! En somme : bon produit, pas parfait, mais il existe peu d'alternatives sur le marché pour ce rapport qualité/prix...

Pas évident á utiliser au Canada. Il a fallu acheter un convertisseur de prise. Et le DVD ne fonctionne pas.
