Nads Hair Removal Ultimate Brow Shaping Kit

When using a Sugar Wax, Gel Wax or Hard Wax, the hair needs to be at least 2-5mm in length.

When using a Wax Strip, the hair needs to be at least 2-5mm in length.

A pimply rash is quote common and is the skin's reaction to having hair pulled from the root.

If the skin has been removed then it is not being held taut and also the strip is being applied over the same spot more than once. Also, if the skin is excessively dry; this could make the skin susceptible to tearing if waxed.

In our experience, it's not usually the ingredients that cause irritations to develop, but we always recommend following the instructions on the pack to perform a patch test at least 24 hours before proceeding with full application.

It's quite normal to experience a little redness or spots with any wax, especially if you're new to it. Occasionally if the Gel is applied too thickly, you may experience a little irritation or even bruising if you've needed to tug at the skin to remove the strip or not held the skin taut as you've removed the strip.

NOTE: If you have a skin condition, always check the precautions in the instruction leaflet to ensure yours is a suitable skin type.

There are a number of reasons why bruising, swelling and/or irritation may occur so it's important to ALWAYS read the precautions and perform a patch test before treatment to ensure you're skin is suitable.

• Here are some of the things to look out for. Refer to the precautions for more information.
  
• Are you a diabetic/take oral retinoids(antibiotics)/is your skin very inelastic or dry? If so, you should not be using this product. For a detailed explanation of suitable skins types, you should refer to our instruction leaflet.
  
• Did you remember to keep the skin taut as you pulled the strip off? This is essential to prevent bruising/swelling/irritation.
  
• Did you pull the strip up rather than close to the skin? This can cause bruising/swelling/irritation.
  
• Did you go over the same area more than twice on your face? Do not re-wax the area if your skin is irritated.
  
• Did you use the product just before or during your period? Your skin is really sensitive during this time and I wouldn’t recommend waxing until after your period. You will find that it will be a far less painful experience then.
  
• Was the hair very long? We advise to trim the hair to 5mm, as longer hair will be more painful to remove and you might experience bruising/swelling/irritation.
  

NOTE: It's quite normal to experience a little redness or spots after waxing, especially if you're new to it. Always perform a patch test in the area to be treated and wait at least 24 hours to ensure any redness subsides before proceeding with waxing.

Hair may not come out if:

• You use the Nad’s Soothing & Finishing oil wipes before using the wax.
• The area was not clean, dry and oil-free.
• Your skin was not held taut.
• You did not pull off in the opposite direction of hair growth.
• If you slowly pulled or dragged the wax off.
• If your hair was shorter than 3mm. The wax will not grip onto shorter hair.

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.

Some people with diabetes have poor blood circulation and so may be more prone to bruising and skin irritations.

• it is not at least 3-5mm long
  
• the area is not clean and free from makeup and moisturisers
  
• the area is not dried after using the cleansing wipes
  
• too thick a layer of gel is applied – it needs to be thin
  
• you do not pull off the strip in the opposite direction of hair growth
