I have been using this product for a while--and it is getting increasingly difficult to find in stores.It is SO much less expensive than going to the spa for a leg wax, and it is very effective at removing hair.I would say that each jar gives me about 3 waxes-provided that I have enough strips left-although it gets a bit less effective as I get down towards the bottom of the jar & I have to keep reheating to keep it from getting to glue-y.I also find it to not be irritating at all--I'm not sure if the oil that comes with it actually does something, or if the wax itself is just more gentle.
Forgot to Mention: The purple oil that comes with the wax is also about the only thing that will help REMOVE the wax once it's on something.I've gotten it off of glass, my skin/ nails, and a ceramic counter by pouring on a little wax and then rubbing it off with my hands/ scratching it off with my nail.I dont know if it would work miracles on clothes or other fabrics as well, but its best you dont try to tempt fate!!
I typically have to reheat the wax 2 or 3 times during the waxing process because I find it most effective when the wax issomewhat thin. I agree that it is a serious pain to clean up--if you get it on any clothes/furniture, etc, forget about it.I always sit on the same towel when I wax my legs, and no matter how many times i wash it, the purple stains remain.So be careful.

Sally Hansen Lavender Spa Wax Remover Kit For Body
The bruise thing doesn't make any sense to me.These strips don't get all the hairs but you also don't have all the mess like regular wax.They're cheap and super easy to use.
This product worked great on my bikini line and on my knees. It did not, however, work on the fine hair on my thighs or toes. 
These strips work very well.I used them for my eyebrows and they removed every hair I wanted removed with ease. Of course it hurt a bit, but these strips use real wax so its not going to be pain-free and it doesn't claim to be.They are very easy to use, all you have to do is warm them in your hands for a few seconds and you are ready. They come in several different sizes and you may have to cut them down or in the shape you want, but that's easy enough to do. There is a finishing oil in the package that feels great and removes the wax residue instantly.If you want an easy way to wax at home, this is a great product!
I tried bleaching....didn't like it because the hair will still be there but blond and still noticeable.I tried waxing at the salon....left my lip irratated and red.Then I saw this and tried it and this is my fave!I leave on the cream for 8 min and tada!Nohair and my skin is not irritated.I have to use it once a week which isn't too bad.This works for me.
I've used waxing products from this brand a couple times, mostly waxing strips. I heard that actual wax, however, was supposed to work better and keep hair from growing back for a longer period of time. Yeah right. I really can't recommend this stuff at all. I followed the directions very carefully, but wound up with a huge mess. The wax got stuck to my fingertips and wouldn't come off for hours. And might I mention that it didn't work at all? I think the wax took off a grand total of four hairs, if even that. Hardly did a thing. So, yeah, this stuff really isn't worth your money at all. On the other hand, their waxing strips work very nicely.
I've used this gel on my legs. It took a month or so to get the hang out it,but by the time I got to the bottom of the jar I was confident that I had the technique down. I like this product because it's very similar to Nads, so similar that I took a bit on the tip of my finger and ate some (remember the advert for Nads, with the lady sticking her finger in the jar as a midnight snack? lolz don't eat it! But I live..) It's superior to Nads because it does not completely crystalize and become useless after a month. It stays the perfect consistency for as long as you keep it.
