6 Things You Must Do Before Waxing For Smoothest Skin Ever
Waxing is an inevitable part of our lives, don't you agree, ladies? Do we want smooth glossy skin free of stubbles and unseemly hair? Certainly! Can we do it without the pain of scalding hot wax and strips forcefully pulling our hair? No!
However, there are things you can do before waxing, which will not just keep the nasty rashes and ingrown hair at bay, but also help you go longer without your next waxing session and make the entire process somewhat less painful.
Whether you are seasoned pro or about to wax for the first time, you need these tips to get the best results possible!
Before we get started, here are some ground rules, keep at least a gap of 40 days before your next waxing session.
Make sure all the tools used by the beautician are thoroughly sterilised and whatever you do, patch test the wax if you are trying out a new waxing ingredient.
Take a day, see if there is any outbreak or infection and schedule a next day appointment.
Here are 6 herbal remedies that guarantee a rash-free smooth skin after every waxing session.
Avoid Waxing During Periods
If recent studies are anything to go by, your skin tends to be extra-sensitive during periods and as such more likely to pain. Furthermore, chances of developing rashes are also high during this time, so schedule an appointment 10 days before or after your next menstrual cycle. One of the most easy and natural ways to avoid waxing breakout.
Rice Exfoliator
Waxing
can
push
dirt
further
back
into
pores,
clogging
it.
Here
is
a
natural
exfoliator
that
will
not
just
slough
off
the
dead
skin
cells,
but
also
prevent
rashes.
Ingredients
•
3
tablespoons
of
rice
powder
•
1
tablespoon
of
yogurt
•
1
teaspoon
of
honey
How
It
Works
•
Mix
all
the
ingredients
together
into
a
smooth
paste.
•
Lather
it
all
over
your
body.
•
Wait
till
it
dries,
then
spritz
some
water
and
start
scrubbing
rigorously
in
a
circular
motion.
•
Rinse
and
pat
dry.
•
Avoid
applying
lotion
if
you
have
a
waxing
session
immediately
afterwards.
Alcohol Toner
One
of
the
most
tested
home
remedies
to
avoid
waxing
rashes
is
this
one.
Waxing
leaves
pores
open
and,
sometimes,
it
raptures
the
skin
tissues
underneath.
To
keep
the
skin
cool,
kill
bacteria
and
close
pores,
simply
dip
a
cotton
ball
into
alcohol.
Squeeze
out
the
excess
and
dab
it
on
the
freshly
waxed
areas.
Soothing Rose Water
Open pores after waxing are more susceptible to collect dirt and oil, which in turn can lead to red angry bumps. Avoid working out after waxing or wearing tight clothes. Give your skin room to breathe for the next 10 to 12 hours.
And if you feel any irritation, dab the area with rose water. It has astringent plus antibacterial properties, which will soothe inflammation and prevent pimples.
Choose Wax
It
may
feel
like
one-wax-fit-all
kind
of
a
situation,
but
it
is
not!
There
are
two
kinds
of
wax,
namely,
soft
wax
and
hard
wax.
Hard
wax
is
best
suited
for
waxing
the
bikini
area
or
face,
whereas
soft
wax
is
ideal
for
skin
on
hands
and
legs.
Also,
make
sure
you
know
the
ingredients
in
your
wax,
and
your
skin's
compatibility
with
the
ingredient.
One
of
the
most
important
things
to
do
before
waxing
is
to
know
your
wax.
Avoid Shaving
If you want to know how to make your wax last, let your hair grow at least ¼ inch before you go in for your next session. And as tempting as it may be, avoid shaving to remove that pesky tiny hair. Waxing after shaving increases the chances of ingrown hair, not to mention, infection.
