Waxing facial hair...What type of wax brands do you use or recommend?
I have had my face waxed by professionals and it was great but it is pricey. I am looking for a good wax to use for facial waxing. I tried a cream wax but I didn't like it. I need and want a wax that I can do without the cloth strips to pull it off.
I use Starpil Wax (usually the blue or the pink) I would highly recommend it for all over the body! You can see YouTube videos of people using it and I’… read more
