Simply rinse the cotton wax strips in warm water and allow for them to dry before re-using.

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.

Bruising may be a result of either applying too thick a layer of gel or not holding your skin taut enough. Whilst this is rare, bruising may occur in some situations as a result of;

• applying the gel too thickly. It is important to apply a thin layer of gel to prevent the product from tugging the skin when the strip is removed
• failing to hold the skin taught when removing the strip. It is important to keep the skin taut to minimise movement of the skin and hence prevent bruising
• diabetes. Diabetics are prone to bruising due to poor blood circulation
• Pre existing skin or circulatory issues.

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

The Cotton Strips have been designed to be washed and reused. Simply hand wash the used Cotton Strips in warm, soapy water and lay flat to air dry. You can also fold a used Strip in half and warm between you hands to re activate the wax. This can be done multiple times until no longer effective.

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.

We recommend ensuring that the tattoo has completely healed first and to complete a small test patch on the area before full treatment.

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.

The product is affected by humidity and age. If the product is only used occasionally, the product may become crystallised before using the entire jar. If water, steam or foreign materials enter the product, they will also cause a change. To rectify this, follow these steps:

• Place the jar in the microwave (with the lid and ALL the foil seal removed) on high
• Watch for the product to start to boil. Stop the microwave.
• Take the jar out of the microwave (MAKE SURE YOU USE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AS THE PRODUCT IS AT BOILING POINT)
• Stir a couple of times and let it COOL to ROOM TEMPERATURE
• Gel is now ready to use and should be back to its original consistency.

Nad’s Natural Hair Removal Gel Waxes have been created from carefully-selected ingredients, such as molasses, lemon juice, honey and vinegar. They do not require heating, as they warm up with your body's temperature when applied to the skin. Nad's Natural Sugar Wax is 100% Natural.

• Nad's Hair Removal Gel is made with natural ingredients commonly found in the kitchen, like honey, lemon and molasses.
• Nad's Hair Removal Gel is water soluble so if you make a mistake with application, the Gel simply rinses off with water. It also means the Cotton Strips included with the Gel can be rinsed under the tap and dried ready for your next wax.
• Nad’s Hair Removal Gel doesn’t require heating...the Gel softens with the heat of the body as it's applied to the skin.
• Nad’s Hair Removal Gel removes hair from the root, giving you long lasting smooth, hair-free skin.

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