Ok so when you open the wax its got a very strong pungent resin-like smell and the wax is completely solid after I warmed it in the microwave for 2.5 minutes it melted completely into a liquid. This is the fastest I've seen hard wax melt, I've used pellets in the past and it took 10 minutes or longer for it melt and I lost interest in using pellets afterwards. So in terms of how quickly it melted I was really impressed. Now in terms of applying it, firstly I've been a frequent waxer/sugarer for about 10 years. I compared it to my usual form where the application has to be a thin layer, while Parissa on the other has to be a thick layer and if you're not used to it, it will take some time getting used to it. My usual way of application caused me issues because I applied a thin layer the first time and then it hardened up immediately and then I had problems taking it off. Mu suggestion is to Play around with it. Test it out on non-sensitive spots like your hands, fingers, and wrist area, I played around with it for a few minutes and got used to how thick I needed the wax to be. So Overall its a great formula and worth trying, if you're tired of using messy strips.    -
