Nad's Brazilian & Bikini Kit 4.9 oz (140 ml)

Comments about Nad's Brazilian & Bikini Kit, 4.9 oz:

At first, I thought "the hotter the wax, the better"! Not so. Certainly it has to be hot, but it applies best when it's just a little thicker, so not super hot. The underarms are tricky to do alone; I recommend a close friend's help! The instructions recommend standing on an old towel- do it! The occasional drip is bound to happen so don't destroy a bath mat or waste your time scraping dried wax off of your floor.

I love this product! Its the best! I have tried others but they cant compare to how clean and easy this product is. I really wish they would start selling it at my local stores so I wouldn't have to buy it on-line.

Start by applying a light dust of baby powder. Then I apply a thin layer of wax. Wait for it to harden like dry candle wax. Pull skin in the opposite direction then you plan to lift the wax in and hold that hand steady. Then lift the edge of the wax in the direction you plan to pull it in (if not done properly it may leave a bruised appearance to skin). Make sure you lift a little section of wax up so you can get a good grip before you remove wax strip, then pull. Once all the desired hair is removed, use the baby oil to clean any remaining wax or wax residue.

Great Product!!! It does take some time because you have to heat the product often. If the product is not heated enough it will not work as well so make sure to have it the proper consistency. Other than that I would say it is one of the best products that I have used so far. I did have a little bleeding at first but that may have been because it was not the right consistency. But once I got the hang of it was easier to manage. Although sometimes I don't have the courage to pull.

Must be heated until it is a runny liquid, but be careful it's not too hot. Reheat it multiple times to keep it liquefied. Apply in very small patches (about the size of a penny to quarter depending on area). Apply as a liquid and start pulling as soon as it begins to stiffen (about 5 seconds after application). Best is to pull from an edge opposite of hair growth. Entire patch of wax may not come off in one pull, but try to get it all off as fast as possible because the harder it gets, the more painful it is to remove. Start in a semi-delicate area (i.e., around the outer lips) and then move to more delicate (lip edges) and lastly remove the least delicate (above pubic bone) because in the end the least delicate area will seem very easy since you already have gone through the worse areas. Be very patient, prepare yourself mentally to "just do it", and ALWAYS apply as a liquid. After a couple times, you'll get the hang of it. Clean up is pretty easy as the wax stays in solid pieces.

This product really works! I am new to waxing so I am having some difficulty getting all the hair, but it is getting easier and less painful then it was the first time.

I've been using the original Nad's sugar wax on my bikini area for years now and although it took some practice I have been able to achieve a brazillian wax myself with minimal pain or mess. I saw that Nad's makes a wax dedicated to the bikini area and decided to give it a try.

I was surprised when I saw that it was a hard wax very unlike the soft sugar wax they normally sell. It took about 4 times longer to heat up than the instructions said, but that's not a big deal. I waxed the hair on my true bikini line with no problems, although it missed quite a bit of hair (I'd estimate it took off 2/3 of the hair). However, when I got to the very sensitive areas "down there" I couldn't grab the strip right and ended up with a huge chuck of wax stuck down there as it was WAY to painful to pull on. I finally got it off with the aid of a pair of nail scissors, but it was not fun. The idea of not using a fabric strip looks good on paper, but actually using it is a different story. Unless you're a masochist, don't use this product.

Takes longer to heat up than the instructions say but works great. I found the key to good results and ease of use is to put it on thickly and let it set up until it's no longer soft then rip away. I use this with Sally Hansen bikini pre waxed strips for a brazilian wax and get great results. Nads gets most all the hair and Sally Hansen strips get the hard to reach places. The Sally Hansen after conditioning oil removes all residue from both products and leaves you silky soft.

Ok, so the wax smells decent/fruity, it needs to be heated longer than it says (in my micro, at least...but don't forget to dig deep in the jar to pull up the melted stuff, the top will still be stiff after a minute), not too messy and easy enough to smear around. HOWEVER...maybe it's me and my technique, but it's very hit or miss as far as hair removal goes. Sometimes the wax only grabs hair along the long edges of the "wax strip." Sometimes a thicker application works, sometimes thinner, sometimes as the wax cools it works better, sometimes applying AGAINST the grain is better. It's like a darn science I tell you! I'd think 3 separate waxings/days would hopefully get everything. :)

I have been waxing my legs for years now, and had bikini waxing done at salon. Since I love Nad`s waxing strips for waxing my legs, I wanted to give this one a try as well. Waxing itself was no problem, wax is excellent. Works great, get`s all hair out. Yes it is painful, which should be expected when doing bikini waxing. Only problem I had is warming the wax. I tried microwave exactly as directions stated. But microwave just shut down during the process and I haven`t try to heat it in microwave again. Did not want to kill the microwave completely. Microwave obviously got overheated and wax was still firm. Eventually I just used my baby bottle warmer to melt the wax. Now I use other bikini wax, that melts by warming on the stove. Again, wax itself works great, gets even very short and thick hair, but warming brings the rating way down. Bummer.

I thought this was a great product! I used it on my underarms and bikini line, and it was literally PAINLESS under the arms! If anything, I just felt a slight tingle, but not even close to being painful. It took a little while to get used to, but once you get the hang of it it's easy to use. Bikini area wasn't completely painless, which is expected, but it's less painful than the Nad's Original wax, which I've tried there! For me, using this wax didn't sting afterwards, and had barely any redness! :) I'm quite happy with this product, except that you have to re-heat it a couple times.
