Best wax I have used, in the worst possible packaging I have seen.
The sugar wax itself is absolutely amazing - no bumps, smooth as a baby’s bottom.
The packaging on the other hand - terrible. The outer container has a laminated label which makes the package slippery to hold, especially after just warming the container. The wax spilled on my fingers, I got burnt and it spilled on the counter , because at this point the wax had come down the sides of the container, making it sticky and awkward to hold the container. All in all, it was a mess. The waxing itself was quite on point but the packaging was a big minus. I would rebuy but use with extreme caution.

Reviews
Excellent services. I love my eyebrows and the mustache removal.
Got my first Brazilian wax in about a decade here. I was very nervous about it but both the receptionist and my waxer, Sunna, made me feel at ease and safe. Sunna was incredibly professional, friendly and made what could be a scary experience a lovely one! Not to mention she was careful with my very sensitive skin. Will be coming back regularly.
