PREP & HEAT:
1. Remove the cap and plastic disc.
2. Place jar in the center of a microwave-safe plate.
3. Heat for 30 seconds on high setting. Carefully break the surface of the wax with a large applicator. If wax has not melted, reheat in 15-second increments until you can stir the wax so it takes on a thin/creamy consistency.
Note: Heating time varies with each microwave. DO NOT heat wax for more than a total of 1 minute, as wax may be too hot to apply.
4. Remove the jar from the microwave carefully using the handle.
5. Test wax temperature by applying wax with wax applicator on the inside of your wrist before waxing.
READY TO WAX:
1. Cleanse area to be epilated with a cleanser such as GiGi Pre Hon and then pat thoroughly dry with tissue.
2. Apply a thin layer of GiGi Pre Epilation Powder to absorb moisture and oil and ensure area is dry.
3. Holding the applicator at a 45° angle, apply a thin layer of soft wax in the direction of hair growth.
4. Place epilating strip over wax and rub strip firmly in the direction of hair growth.
5. Hold the skin taut and pull epilating strip off (parallel to the skin) with one quick motion in the opposite direction of hair growth.
6. Immediately apply firm pressure to epilated area with the cushion of your fingers or palm of your hand to calm the skin.
Note: Never re-apply soft wax to newly-epilated areas.
Pro Tip: Use your epilated strip to remove any leftover wax from your skin.
AFTER WAX CARE:
1. Apply GiGi Wax Off to remove any wax residue and to condition.
2. Apply Post Wax Cooling Gel liberally to skin after waxing to help soothe irritation and redness.
3. To maintain waxing results longer, smooth on GiGi Slow Grow, a hair minimizer, every day after showering.
