SKIN PREP
To prepare your skin for waxing, we recommend exfoliating the area 1-2 days before waxing using either an exfoliating scrub, a loofah, or a dry brush to make the results smoother and to prevent ingrown hair!
for more info - head on to our hunny academy page "PRE & POST WAXING"!
POWDER, POWDER, POWDER!
Always apply powder before applying wax onto your skin! This is to get rid of any moisture left and to ensure that Hunnywax grips onto all your hair strands!
This will make it easier to get all the hair in one pull!
​
You may use baby powder, cornstarch, or baking soda!

HOW TO COLD WAX YOUR UNDERARMS:
1. Scoop out the wax straight from the jar with your hand or applicator
2. Use the tip of your fingers to mold the wax three times onto the desired area - don't forget to press down hard to ensure all the hairs are gripped!
3. Flick the wax off in a fast motion to pull the hair!
4. Repeat until the whole area is hair free!
