Great wax for legs,
June 1, 2008 anelo semada - See all my reviews
I've been using this wax for years (at least over 3 yeaars) and I just love it. The only problem I had with it, was using it on bikini area. Don't even try, it will heart like hell. However, when it comes to waxing legs (or arms), this is the best wax for in-home use. Since I've started using this wax, I never went to salon to get my legs waxed even once. At this point i still like it, but I am now concerned about the safety of the wax itself (toxins wise). Other than that, it's a great machine. Whoever wrote that review about it not being heated fast or not staying hot, probably doesn't know how to use it at first place. It's so easy. Yes, it takes 30-45 minutes to warm it up, but once it's hot, it's a piece of cake. I role it on the whole lower leg, let it sit for 15-20 seconds, and then just wax it out with the cloth. Meanwhile the container with wax is sitting in the warmer and it's not going to cool down. Believe me, I know what I am saying. You just have to learn properly and it...Read more

A Piece of Junk,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Personal waxing system that does not generate enough heat to melt the wax for efficient application. 45+ minutes in the apparatus is not adequate time to liquify the wax. Recommend dumping this item and acquiring a salon quality item.

Not for the slow-moving but does a good job,

This review is from: clean + easy Personal Roll On Waxer (Misc.)
The first time I used this, I only let it heat up for 30 minutes. The wax didn't spread properly and I was left with all kind of red bumps. But after I read a review on Amazon, I let it heat up for almost a full hour, and that made it a completely different experience. It spread perfectly and the wax itself is wonderful. It got more hairs than previous waxing kits had and was far less painful. In fact, I found that I didn't have to yank as quickly as I have in the past, which definitely helps.
My only complaint is that it cools off rather quickly, so I have to put it back in the warmer. Because I put it roller side up, that means I have to wait for all the bubbles to rise back to the top before I start. I've found that it works best if I left back in the warmer for 10 minutes or more after I've completed the first leg.
My personal tips for this product:
* Let heat for close to an hour before using.
* Allow all air bubbles to rise to top before...Read more
