Nad’s Nose Wax is specially formulated to harden and stick to the Nad’s SafeTip™ applicator as well as to the hair around the edge of the nostril.

Did you complete a test patch on the area to be treated? If yes, was all the hair removed on the test patch? How long did you leave the cream on for? If all the hair is not removed after 4 minutes, leave the cream on longer without exceeding 10 minutes in total.
Ensure a thick and even layer of the cream is applied, making sure each hair strand is completely covered by the cream. The cream should have a smooth, white consistency. If the tube cap is not properly sealed after each use and air gets into the product, the cream may turn a yellowish shade which can reduce the effectiveness of the cream. Ensure cream is wiped from tube tip and cap is properly sealed after each use.
In order for the Facial Wand Eyebrow Shaper to work well on the face it needs to be a fairly thick consistency. The gel itself also adapts to the surrounding temperature so you may find it will thicken in the colder months. The gel will soften by rubbing the Wand between your hands for 30 seconds. Alternatively, place the Wand in a cup of hot water for 2 minutes, tip facing upwards, water level no higher than the ® symbol. Subsequently apply the gel slowly to the area you wish to treat and it will melt with your body heat as it goes on. Important - DO NOT place the wand in the microwave.
You may have applied the wax too thinly. The hair needs to be completely covered. Also, the wax may have been left on the skin too long. The wax should be pliable when removed (not brittle).
Put the jar back in the microwave for 10-second increments until it has the consistency of thick honey. You might find that there is a ‘hot spot’ in the jar – a spot where the wax is completely fluid with hard wax around it. Leave the wax for 1 minute and then gently stir it mixing the more fluid parts with the hard parts. Please remember to test a little bit on the inside of your wrist to check the temperature before proceeding with the treatment.

Cilia are microscopic hairs on the surface of the respiratory tract that draw up mucus which traps any smaller foreign particles that the nose hairs may have missed. Cilia help clean the air before it goes to the lungs by moving these particles toward the front of the nose or down through the throat to remove them from your airway.
The spatulas and precision shaping stick can be used for precision application of the hard wax close to the bikini shape and for finishing touches after removing the shape.
