Full Body Waxing Kit for Women Men, NEW 17.6 oz Wax Beads,Gentle, Hypoallergenic,Per Month Wax Kit for Sensitive, Combination Skin - Wax Warmer For Hair Removal, Easy To Use

As of late, I've been annoyed by a persistent tickle in my nostrils. Nothing overwhelming, just a constantly irritating low-level *eeeee* that would happen whenever I exhaled nasally. So I was forever scratching. Sneezing. And sniffling. I looked like I was on something, or trying to surreptitiously mine for nose-nuggets. And since I'm a fur-bearing mammal, I typically chalked it up to errant nose-hairs I couldn't much see or really even reach.So, whenever it got particularly irritating, I would regularly use the nose- and ear-hair attachment on my beard trimmer to go after the issue. That worked okay, but it was mostly a stopgap. And even if I managed to knock back the hair (or hairs) that were irritating me at the time, there were always others. And they'd always grow back.Sometimes — if I got really ambitious — I would angrily grab some tweezers and hit the bathroom mirror to see if I couldn't *YOINK* out the offending hairs by their very roots. But that wasn't a perfect solution either. Sometimes it would help for awhile, but it never quite took care of the problem.For one, you can't SEE inside your nose no matter how much you contort yourself in front of the mirror. So you just have to shove the tweezers up there, grab and pull, and hope for the best. And obviously, even if you get a few out, you're dealing with watery eyes, sneezing and faucet-snot after like the second or third snout-spelunk.Then I saw someone on TikTok using a nostril-waxing kit. I was intrigued, to say the least. So, I picked up this kit.I was a little apprehensive at first. I mean, if pulling out ONE nose-hair was a recipe for instant sneezing and watery eyes, would I be able to handle doing a full nostril's worth all at once without my entire head turning into a big, puffy, juice-dripping cantaloupe?I also didn't know if it would work. Mainly, because the TikTok I saw was posted because it was a classic "fail" video. Someone had undertaken the instructions, but "lost" the wax plug in their nostril when they went to remove it. That didn't sound awesome to me. But, I was annoyed enough that I determined the risk was worth taking.Anyway, this showed up yesterday. And I was so ready to be rid of the maddening internal nose-tickle that I opened it immediately.The first thing I was struck by was that it seemed a lot easier to use than I expected. It's only like a five-and-a-half-step process. And the half-step would be optional for some; I only undertook it because I am a mustachioed fella.1.) Swab out your nostrils with a tissue to remove any residual booger-sauce that might make things any slipperier than they need to be.1b.) The optional step: if you're a dude with facial hair (as I am), apply the jaunty and whimsical adhesive mustache-guard decal to your cookie duster to avoid accidentally applying wax to any hair you may want to keep.2.) Pour out enough wax beads to barely cover the bottom of a li'l paper cup that's roughly the same size as the ones you might put ketchup in at a diner.3.) Measure out 20ml of water into the included plastic measuring cup, put the paper one full of wax beads in the cup on top of it, and microwave it for 90 seconds.4.) When it's done, get two of the wax sticks, and swirl them around in the melted wax enough to get a "plug" on the end. Then while it's still warm, corkscrew 'em into your nostrils to just past the little flange on the bottom.5.) Wait two minutes, grimace, then yank 'em out like you're trying to pull-start a lawnmower.It's that last one I was most worried about. Obviously, waxing ANY hair off of your body only works if you're willing to endure a little discomfort. So imagine my surprise when it wound up being the easiest step in the process.Now, I'm not saying it was COMFY. It was sort of like ripping a Band-Aid off of a hairy arm, or pulling a Bioré strip from the bridge of your nose. You want to do it quickly, and I did. But I was a little surprised at how painful it WASN'T. It was honestly no big deal. Nothing like I'd feared. And I didn't even sneeze or tear up, which really shocked me.And the INSTANT I took a breath after it was out? Dear gods. It was like the clouds parted and angels were singing. Immediate relief. The never-ending, infuriating tickle was just GONE.So I tenderly probed my nostril with the tip of a curious pinky. And that thing was like SILK. There wasn't a single hair left in there that I could detect. It was a very weird sensation, but undeniably pleasant.Which made sense once I looked at the wax stick. Imagine...a blanched porcupine with mild alopecia. Or a bottle-brush near the end of its life. The wax plug had grabbed, held onto, and then unceremoniously uprooted every single strand of hair that had previously plagued me. From the top inside corner that I could see but never QUITE get with the trimmer, all the way to the deep ones that I could occasionally tweeze out, but never really get all of. There they were. Out. All staring back at me like, "What the ****, bro?!? Why?!?" But they knew why. They had it coming.Overall, the general feeling in that nostril from the INSIDE of my body was something akin to like when you're wearing a really uncomfortable pair of shoes all day, and you can finally get home, sit down, and take them off.So, encouraged, I yoinked the other one almost immediately. Same sensation. About a sixteenth of a second of "Oof", followed immediately by intense relief, and a baby-booty smooth cavity that instantly felt like an unclogged drain free to flow unencumbered once again. Bliss.Even better? I woke up this morning without one or both of my nasal passages feeling as though someone had filled them with concrete while I was sleeping. THAT hasn't happened in AWHILE. It may be unrelated, but I doubt it.So, ultimately — while I'm not saying that going scorched-earth on your nostrils with hot wax is necessarily an experience EVERYONE needs to have, it's been kind of a game-changer for yours truly. And if you deal with irritating levels snout-wool like I do, this is a solution that works exactly as advertised.Go forth, and breathe freely.

Evolution is a fascinating thing. Some evolutionary traits make sense, as creatures evolve for defense, adaptation, even propagation of the species. However, some traits don't always seem like they have any kind of point, like why men suddenly develop lots of nose and ear hair in their mid to late 30s. Why does this happen? I don't know, but it's freakin' annoying.Things were fine until about a decade ago, when I entered my mid 30s and my body started going "Hey we're not a kid anymore, time to start shifting into Old Man Mode". Suddenly my nose was a dense forest of itching, tickling hairs. For years I've tried trimming, but that just gets the soft tips of the hair, leaving the stiff prickly shaft to itch like mad. I found myself CONSTANTLY having to itch my nose, to the point where I wonder if my friends suspect me of having a coke habit (I do not).I first saw the idea of nose hair waxing on Tiktok, and was doubtful at first, but the idea just excited me so much, having a hair-free nose, that I HAD to try it. This particular product seemed to get good reviews, so I figured what the heck! Let's try it.THIS PRODUCT WORKS. It's super easy to use, you just need to heat the wax, swirl one of the sticks in it, and shove it up your nose. Wait about 2-3 minutes, and then grab the stick (you may wanna use both hands) and YANK. With that many rooted hairs, it's actually gonna take more strength than you think. Try to yank it all in one smooth motion, and then marvel at the gross little porcupine you just pulled out of your nostril.Weirdly? Didn't hurt. It's weird, like if you've ever plucked a single nose hair, it hurts like the dickens! It'll make a grown man cry. I mean don't get me wrong, there was definitely a strong feeling that'll wake you up as you yank it out, but it wasn't pain. I wound up doing both nostrils twice just to get it all, and I have zero regrets.Expect some weirdness, definitely. It's weird having a completely bald nostril, and it'll tingle for a day or two. You might sneeze a little, because yeah nosehairs are your nose's dust filter and your body's not used to having its filter cleaned. But after a day or two, you'll be breathing easier, and having a significantly less itchy, tickly nose.My friends are gonna think I went to rehab!

This wax kit worked well on my ears. The directions in regards to heating the wax is inaccurate. If you heat the container in the microwave it will heat from the bottom up. This method will end up melting the container before the surface layer softens. The best way is to place the container inside a bowl. Then fill it with water to at least half the height of the wax container. Heat until the water boils then remove from microwave. Let it sit for five minutes. Repeat the process and boil and let set. By the third or fourth time you should be able to poke the wax applicator in and mix it around. The two minute wait time for the wax to cool before pulling the applicator is accurate. It is highly effective and painless. The most time consuming process is heating the wax evenly. I tried by just heating the container at first and I was getting nowhere. Use the bowl and water method.
