Some individuals-especially with heavy, curly hairs-may develop ingrown hairs. Hair removal facilitates the process of ingrown hairs by “sharpening” the free hair end. Tender pimples then arise when closely cut hairs grow out and pierce the hair follicle or curl back and reenter the skin to cause a foreign body reaction. This condition is Pseudo Folliculitis Barbae also known as  PFB.  Skin lightening results in 6-8 weeks

Perfect for dark spots in:  Bikini area, underarms, chin, nape of neck, acne.

Appropriate for all ethnic skin types.

Escential Hard Wax/Non-strip Wax:

Escential No-Strip Rose Wax - a non-strip wax that is comforting and harmonizing to the skin.  Removed without a strip, this is the newest technique in hair removal.  Thick, creamy, smooth, and easy to apply, it is recommended for use on the face, bikini, and underarm area.  It is formulated and designed to encapsulate the hair in the wax for the most effective removal method available today. This is a low temperature wax. Suitable for all skin types, hair textures and lengths.  Patented formula remains soft and pliable. Excellent for facial waxing, underarms, bikini, Brazilian, and men’s grooming. Sensual rose scent.

Escential Soft Waxes/ Strip Waxes:

Escential Lavender Soft Wax- a low temperature strip wax for sensitive skin. The thin sparkly gel-like texture makes the application and removal a breeze, and it creates a calm waxing environment with its gentle lavender scent.  Suitable for use on all skin types, hair lengths and textures. Apply in a thin application and remove with nonwoven strips.

Escential Green Tea Soft Wax- Thin sparkly gel-like texture. This wax is the ideal strip wax to use for all clients.  It is used at a low temperature and very effective in removing all types of hair.  Your clients will love how silky their skin feels after the procedure. Apply in a thin application and remove with non-woven strips.  Has an invigorating crisp aromatic scent.  Recommended use on legs, back, arms and chest.

Esential Pure Soft Wax- Thin, gel-like texture. Pure with its distinctive hypoallergenic formulation, this wax facilitates a thinner, more cost-effective application.  Unparalleled performance on even the shortest, coarsest hair.  Pure leaves behind smooth, clean healthy skin.  Uncompromising hair removal results, it’s the perfect choice for legs, backs, chests, and arms.  Speed waxing at its finest! Fragrance-free with a microcrystalline base. Use with strips. Great for sensitive skin.

Pre and Post treatment:

Escential Rosewater Cleanser – Gentle Rose scent is what gives this cleanser its appeal.  An antiseptic cleanser used to clean the skin before waxing.  May also be used after waxing the underarm or bikini area to reduce any possibility of infection. It contains only 9% alcohol, which provides antiseptic benefits without drying the skin.

Escential Jasmine Oil – This oil is necessary to use before the waxing application but after the cleansing of the skin with the Rosewater Pre-wax Cleanser.  Jasmine oil facilitates the removal of the wax while acting as a barrier protecting the skin; it ensures the wax will be removed easily and won’t stick to the skin.  Only a very small amount is needed to rub into the skin prior to the application of wax.  Excess oil should be removed by gently wiping a tissue across the area. Excess oil in the area of waxing will result in mediocre results, so use very sparingly.  Powder is not used with this waxing system.  Gentle jasmine scent.

Perron Rigot After Waxing Gel – With soothing plant-based extracts, Cirepil Perron Rigot Cooling Gel is specifically designed for tired legs—it delivers a cool, fresh feeling to the skin. It is formulated with botanical extracts for soothing application. Apply this gentle gel in a circular motion.

Perron Rigot Moisturizing Lotion – Recommended as a daily moisturizer, this lotion will keep your clients’ skin healthy and nourished between their waxing services.

Cirepil Blue NO STRIP Hard Wax

4 Steps of Preparation for Applying ALL Cirepil Waxes:

1. Always test the temperature of wax on the inside of your wrist. Wax should be close to body temperature for maximum client comfort.
2. Prepare the area to be waxed with Cirepil Blue Lotion Cleanser while examining the direction of the hair growth.
3. Protect the skin by massaging a very small amount of Cirepil Pre Depilatory Oil into the area to be waxed (one drop for the face and a few drops for larger areas).
4. BLOT WITH TISSUE TO REMOVE EXCESS OIL.

For strip-less wax application we recommend the following:

1. Using a wooden disposable spatula, scoop a quarter sized amount of wax from the tin, smooth/scrape the underside of the spatula against tin, turn spatula several rotations to disconnect from the tin of wax and lessen dripping.
2. Deposit the entire amount of wax onto skin, using the edge of the spatula, spread and apply pressure in the direction of the hair growth. The narrow section of wax should be applied thin and even with a ridge around perimeter for easy wax removal.
3. Holding the skin taught, lift the ridge and remove the wax parallel and close to the skin in the opposite direction of hair growth. Be sure to allow time to let wax set before removal, body and room temperature may slow or speed the set up process for the wax.
4. To complete the service, apply Perron Rigot After Wax Gel, Moisturizing Lotion and/or Natural Moisturizing Oil for a cooling, soothing, and hydrating finish.
