OK folks, here's the deal. This stuff is GREAT! Cleans up easy, removes hair well. There are a couple of things you should know though that will make your experience better. A) The hair has got to be at least about 1/4 inch long for this stuff to 'grab' it well. It doesn't work that well on anything shorter. (This shouldn't be that much of a suprise, this is true of most types of waxing) B) When it says "rub firmly" it means it. For best results, you should start to feel the wax starting to come thru the muslin strips... when it does, it has also grabbed the hair. After that, just pull the strip off quickly, less pain than removing a bandaid, and the hair is gonesky. I bought two bottles to begin with, and am back for two more, so go figure. I have tried everything else, (father was the misssing link, inherited his hair) salons were painful, other kits created a filthy mess and took as much skin as hair, this stuff is without a doubt the way to go. Takes the hair, leaves the skin, and cleans up super quick. Made going brazilian non-scary, need I say more?
I am almost done with this huge jar. It is easy to apply and pulls the hairs off great. The cloth stips are reusable, and I few I cut up to smaller ones. When you are done, just fill the sink up with hot water and let the strips soak in there for 5 minutes, they are rinsed clean. Just let them dry overnight on a towel and they are ready to use again. The wax can get a little messy, but great value for the price. I will re-order. I have sensitive skin and this gives minimal redness.
No kidding, this wax is GREAT. This is the first hair removal I have ever used that didn't leave my face red or remove my skin too! It's easy to use. Buy it!
The Fortuna Wax Hair Removal Kit works very well on my back and private areas. My wife likes me hair-free and smooth. Now that the kit includes a wooden applicator stick, it is even better. The directions are brief but accurate. Follow the directions and you will be pleased. Make sure you have corn starch or corn starch-based baby powder on hand.
Used as directed to remove unwanted eyebrow hair (i.e. "unibrow"), literally did not remove one single hair. Tried three different times just to be sure---no results.
I'm prefacing this by saying that it's expensive because it's basically sugar and water. The ingredients don't warrant the cost, but then what waxing product does actually warrant the cost? The strips are reuseable and easy to clean, this wax is easy to get off the skin, and it is fairly effective as far as removing any type of hair (facial hair, fine and coarse body hair). I like that it's a low temperature wax and it doesn't adhere to the skin too tightly, making it low on the pain scale. Someone below reviewed this and wished that it came with wooden applicators... This product arrived to me with wooden applicators in the same package as the strips that are also included.
Thank you so much overstock. This is a great product. Very effective and I love the fact that you can re-use the waxing strips. Fantastic purchase! Will recommend it to my hairy friend Sherlly.
I am a teenager and from what i had herd about shaving i didn't want to start so my mother ordered me this hair removing system for me. I have never waxed before and when i tried Fortuna Wax it worked perfectly. It didn't hurt at all and it made my skin really smooth and wasn't scary. Thank you Fortuna Wax.
I appreciate the reuseable strips. It really removes hair. The wax can be overheated so it does not take much to warm it up. I used the boiling water method. It works!

Have never used wax hair removel. Surprised at the ease of it and how much hair it removes. Used to remove eye brow hair and very pleased with the results not to mention the lack of discomfort. Easier and less painful then plucking. Does not come with wooden stick. Fortunately have freezer full of popsicles so was able to obtain one quickly.

Look, at the end of the day, you're ripping hair out from it's roots. No matter what the product is made from, you're going to feel it. But this product is very easy to use, very clean, and does a great job. I didn't for a second think the strips would be reusable, but they cleaned off 100% on minutes. It's a great product!

I have only tried this once, but was not impressed at all. In case it was me and not the product, I will try again. Some previous reviewers mentioned the lack of an applicatior, and I found this to be true. No applicator was included. The wax didn't harden at all so it didn't grasp the hairs.
I have used hair removal wax before and thought this one sounded great because it was microwavable. It is. But that feature and the fact it has a nice scent are the only good things I can say about it. It does not set up well and does not do a good job of removing the hair. Stick with a real wax even though you have to heat it in a pan filled with water. This product is definately not efficient after you warm it up.
This is the only wax I will ever use. It is so easy to use and it is water-soluble, so clean up is a breeze. Sugar based formula is gentle to skin. LOVE it!
I bought it for personal use and for my son. There has been no problem using this product if you follow the directions. I have ordered two times and will do so again when I run out. Thanks for a great product!!!
Excellent product. Easy to use, clean and you get the results you want. Second time buying this product because it works! Have tried others, but none do the job of removing hair as well with an easy clean up. Highly recommend it!!!
I've used just about every kind of wax they sell on the market available to the public & this is a good product. It washes off my skin easily. It heats up as directed on the instructions. Even the cotton strips wash out easily. I used it on my legs & had to leave afterwards for an event. I just left the strips in soapy water while I was gone & when I came back home they were clean. All I did was rinse & hung them in the shower to dry. The next day I did my bikini line & same great results. I was very skeptical about the ability of this wax but am very pleased with it.
i would like to order this again. it is easy to clean and minimally irritating. works well, but hair needs to be long enough.
I received it within days of ordering this. I used it once, this is the first time I have tried waxing myself and its easy and mess free! its really a great buy
