Good hair removal
Worked well. Make sure to follow the heat directions! Anything over 5-10 seconds will burn the area. Easy to apply and remover. Better than some waxes I have tried.

Boy oh boy
So to begin, I of course read the reviews prior to purchase, and naturally I reverted to YouTube for a sugar waxing tutorial/ ‘how to’, following delivery of the product.Listen, I gotta tell ya, I am SO SATISFIED with this product! I usually use the Veet wax strips which have been just fine for a long time, but the sticky residue gets annoying after a while and for some reason I noticed that my hair doesn’t grow back as SLOWLY or grow back faster when I use Veet verses when I go to European wax center for a leg wax. I think the ingredients may play a role but who knows..Anyways, back to THIS product: a little goes a LONG way. I used two(2) small balls (one for each leg) and they lasted me the entire waxing duration. The scent is natural (sugar duh lol), not over whelming. Stickiness on fingers comes off in seconds from a rinse under warm water. I didn’t use gloves, didn’t find it necessary as this is a natural product and I really wanted to get a feel for it completely.Please be patient with yourself, go with the learning process and as you continue using you’ll recognize which/what techniques work for you. I do agree, the ‘flicking’ technique I found to be the most successful with sugar wax. This was my FIRST time and I completed my wax session feeling like a PRO lol!!! I did not decide to warm my wax at all, I know some tutorials have that option yet I didn’t find it necessary. I found the wax was pliable enough to scoop into your palm without having to warm it.I do believe the negative reviews were because people don’t follow direction and although I understand everyone is different and we all have different types of body hair within a range, I can assure you that simply following the do’s/don’ts help by a long shot lol. ( I’d also like to add that I have somewhat thick lower leg hair and I did wait a bit until my hair was very visibly noticeable before waxing.)Take your time, watch a YouTube video or two, you have nothing to lose. If you don’t like the product for whatever reason, return it (:Thanks for reading my long review lol!!!@ xobetina on ig if you have questions ;)

No instructions or extras
I've been sugar waxing at home since the beginning of this year, so I'm by no means an expert but luckily I'm somewhat familiar with it. This came with zero instructions and or gloves .I find it easier to use with an applicator (old gift card) than by hand/with gloves.I recommend warming it just a bit so you can scoop it easier. This jar is pretty big and honestly see it going a longs way, would recommend

Super Sticky and Wasteful
Please don’t waste your money. This wax gets soo soft and sticky so quickly, that you can’t even wax with it.Room temperature, I struggled to get a ball out of the container. I made one small pass on my leg, then a second, and the wax was so soft and melted it was stuck to everything and unusable. I salvaged what I could and refridgerated for a few minutes. Then I had to add new wax to the cold ball and try again.Took forever to make any progress and you go through the wax so fast.My understanding was a ball of wax would go a long way. This is NOT the case with this brand/product.

Sorta kinda works
After watching the videos on how to get started with heating up the wax and what not to do on sugar waxing, I felt confident in my ability. I usually use hard bead wax on my self but had a professional sugaring Brazilian session to compare the difference. This led me to purchase this paste and do it myself. However, I only heated up the wax for 5 seconds and it already was too gooey, so I just let it harden and tried again the next day at room temperature (my house is anywhere from 66-68 degrees Fahrenheit). It was still very malleable at room temperature and so I decided to go for it anyway. The product is super to use with the right technique and does a great job. However, after doing a few strips, the ball of wax becomes extremely gooey and hard to even manipulate to create the next strip. Luckily it washes off nicely with water, but I found myself constantly having to do this as the wax melted in my hand so fast I could barely do more than a few passes with the wax. While it did work amazingly, it was super time consuming to get the wax, manipulate it in my hand and then apply it a few times, just to restart because the wax was becoming so gooey so fast. I don’t know if it’s just me having this issue but my hands are usually ice cold so I don’t know what the issue is. I still recommend this product for at home use but recommend you have some patience and practice on an easy area before you make a gooey mess.

Great sugar wax and large amount of product for price
I like sugar waxing my arm pits so I don't get shaving stubble. I used to make my own, but that is time consuming and somewhat difficult to get the exact consistency of the wax. This sugar wax is the perfect level of candy hardness for sugar waxing without using the strips. It works very well and lasts me several months. I used to purchase a similar product at Ulta, but this product is twice the size for the same price. Will buy again.

NO PAIN BRAZILIAN?!?!
Literally felt NO PAIN when I did my Brazilian and this was my first time doing this myself and my last wax was four months ago! OMG I’m never going back to EWC again, you hear me lmao! I was laughing too, when I was doing each section because I for sure thought I was gonna wax one section and tap out, but SIKE! It didn’t hurt at all and I did the whole thing in like 10 minutes sitting down. I am so happy because this jar of wax was only $20 and I was able to do my Brazilian, arm pits, and stomach area with wax still left over, and in the comfort of my own home. To be fair I did also prep with the numb 520 cream and a pain pill, but it’s still amazing because I had no pain at all!!! I’m buying two more jars ASAP!
