film wax
For a woman, body hair is an undesirable phenomenon. This is a sign of neglect and looks repulsive. Cosmetic companies are constantly developing new hair removal techniques, offering the fair sex a large selection of appropriate products. One such development is film wax. This product is unique and has a number of features.
What it is?
The nature of the human body is such that, regardless of its desire, it carries out its program. To please herself and others, a woman seeks to find the perfect remedy for getting rid of unwanted fluff in the bikini area, underarm hair, and on her legs.
At its core, film wax is a tool to combat unwanted hair, one of the preparations of the group of hot waxes for depilation, an improved variety of them. This is a tool that, when solidified, forms a plastic film (due to the oils included in its composition). It is very popular in the cosmetic industry and is an indispensable component of body skin care.
Such wax is recognized as a worthy alternative to razors. Being a professional drug, it allows you to remove unwanted vegetation on the body without resorting to the services of a specialist. This procedure can be done independently at home.
Features and Benefits
Hair removal with film wax is more gentle and not only suitable for a specific area of the body, like other wax analogs. This is a tool with a delicate approach to removing all body hair. The drug is universal and suitable for all skin types.
Film wax is unpretentious in work: knowing the method of its preparation and application, you can solve the problem of vegetation for a long time. The whole technology repeats hot wax depilation, only it takes less time and the product is applied in a thin layer.
Such a drug is sold in the public domain and, with the right approach to choice, is distinguished by an acceptable price: this adds a plus to the treasury of advantages, allowing you to significantly save the budget for an expensive procedure.
The means for combating unwanted hair is different in that, due to its liquefied consistency, it is able to take the shape of the body, therefore, it eliminates hair better than other drugs that can break hairs.
Unlike them, film wax reduces the degree of pain during an unpleasant procedure. It does not harden very quickly, managing to create the desired thermal effect necessary to warm up the hair follicles. Wax-film captures even the shortest hairs, involving them in the removal process and making them supple. The advantages of the product include not only easy preparation, application, but also the integrity of the film during removal.
In addition to high plasticity, film wax is economical: in relation to conventional products, this figure is 1:3. You do not need a large amount to distribute the product on the surface of problem areas: it is applied in a thinner layer (2 mm), following the contour of the desired area.
What is the difference between hot and film?
The main difference between film wax and hot analogue, acquiring a liquid state at a temperature of 45-47 degrees, is to achieve the desired consistency at a lower temperature (37-40 degrees). The degree of heating is suitable for body temperature, so the drug does not shock the skin.
This significantly reduces pain and the risk of burns to the dermis. In addition, the depilation procedure itself becomes more comfortable, therefore it is quite suitable for any type of skin, including hypersensitive and allergy-prone.
The effect of the film wax is noticeable from the first application. In addition to its gentle effect, the wax in the form of a film soothes the skin, making it soft. The effect of smooth skin can last up to a month, and besides, it is impossible to injure the skin with such a preparation.
Which is better - wax or sugaring?
Film wax and sugar paste depilation have the same purpose. It's impossible to say for sure which is better. Both methods are good and allow the skin to remain beautiful for a long time. Usually the effect lasts for a long time.
Women who have tried both products have conflicting opinions, so each representative of the fair sex thinks in her own way. However, there is still a small difference. With regards to the legs, the preparations cope perfectly with both. They remove unwanted hairs regardless of their length and thickness.Regular procedures allow you to achieve that the hair becomes thinner, so it becomes easier to remove it every time. If we talk about the intimate area, then the action of sugar paste is more delicate and less painful.

How to use at home?
Vasking with film wax involves the preparation of the skin in the areas of depilation, the procedure itself and the care of the dermis after removing the product.
Skin preparation
The drug is applied to the prepared and examined skin. Before vasking, it must be cleaned with soap with a bactericidal effect. The skin must be clean and free of grease. If, during a visual examination, wounds, abrasions, irritation of the dermis, papillomas are noticed in the places of planned hair removal, the use of film wax should be postponed and treated.
In addition, to avoid the problem of ingrown hairs, a couple of days before the procedure, you need to use a scrub. The same is repeated on the third or fourth day after hair removal.
If the skin is prone to peeling, before epilation, you need to gently remove dead cells with a scrub so as not to reduce the effectiveness of the drug. You can degrease the surface of the skin using cosmetic gels or special lotions, although some women have enough facial tonic and a cotton pad.
Before applying wax, it is recommended to use talcum powder (or regular baby powder). In addition, no cosmetic procedure passes an allergy test. If the test is passed, you can do hair removal.
How to apply?
You can’t do without a special spatula - this way the application layer will be uniform and thin. Since the film will take some time to harden, it is better to lie down in such a way that the hardening layer does not come into contact with anything.
Wax is applied with one-sided strokes, in the direction of hair growth. In this case, it is necessary to distribute it in such a way that it does not let the hair through.
In order to make it easier to remove the hardened wax later, when applying the film, the edge of the application should be left slightly pulled back.
After the wax has cooled and taken the form of a film, it is torn off with a sharp and quick movement in the direction against hair growth. In this case, the skin needs to be slightly pulled back. If you do not take into account the direction of growth, there is a high risk of ingrown hairs and skin injury.
What to do at the end of the procedure?
After the wax is removed from the skin, it must be soothed and treated with a cosmetic product with a cooling effect.. You can use cosmetics, which do not include fats and oil compositions.
Since at first the skin will be susceptible to any irritants, it is important to avoid prolonged exposure to the sun, and you should not rub the skin with a washcloth for at least a day.
If there is no desire to repeat this procedure often, and the hair grows stubbornly, you can accustom yourself to use a serum that reduces hair growth. This should be done about a week after vasking.
How to cook?
The preparation of film wax is an important, but not difficult moment. The instructions for preparing the product are simple: after measuring a little of the product, it is poured into a special container and heated in a water bath to the desired temperature (from 37 to 40 degrees).
Before applying the product to the skin of problem areas, the degree of its heating is checked: the wax should not injure or burn the dermis.
What is the best device to use?
The convenience of the tool is the versatility of the approach to cooking, regardless of the form of release: if there is no special container (voskoplav), any other is quite suitable. You can warm it up in any bowl. Therefore, the absence of a heater with a wax cover will not be a problem.
As soon as the texture of the wax begins to resemble the consistency of thick sour cream, it can be removed. Usually the melting time is no more than 20-25 minutes. After that, it is covered with a towel to avoid premature cooling.
You should not experiment and heat the wax in the microwave: of course, you can melt it, it will melt, but the effect of the waves will affect it. As a result, the molecular formula of the drug will change, which will lead not to benefit, but to a harmful effect on the body.
Can it be reused?
During the procedure, it often happens that some part of the product remains at the bottom of the container. Many people wonder whether it is worth reusing the residue, and whether the wax will change its properties. In fact, yes, it can be used.A new portion of the product is added to the residue, and then heated to the desired temperature and the following procedure is carried out. This method is used not only at home, but also in professional salons.
If not all hair is removed during the procedure, you can use the remnants of the product. Of course, this can only be done if the skin is not too irritated.
