Definite learning curve and patience required
This product is definitely less messy than other similar options (like those with the strips), but it nonetheless requires patience that I don't necessarily have. The wax tends to cool down pretty quickly, which means you have to work quickly (but also carefully, as this is for facial use - and I have sensitive skin, so I'm not wanting any burns). It got a lot of hair, but not all of it. I feel like I will keep the rest of this product for my underarms as I feel it may be more effective (and that area's also a bit more forgiving).
Parissa Face and lip hot wax
I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I have used many different hair removal methods including different types of wax. This wax was a very good version of this hair removal type. It came in a cute little pot which should be placed on a warmer to melt. Instead of that I used the stove top which took a few minutes extra but worked okay. The wax formulation was very smooth, soft and glided onto the skin nicely. I like that it was a natural product and feel like the skin was less angry than usual during the waxing process. I used the provided sticks to apply but had to add some of my own sticks. I was sceptical since it does not use cloth strips but the wax hardened and pulled off EVERY single hair on my chin/cheek area. It is an extremely well made wax formula that stayed liquid for quite a while too and solidified on the skin and hair. Very effective product for short face hairs/upper lip areas. It also came with a vial of aftercare oil that I loved. The oil removed any pesky remains of wax and made the skin feel smooth, soft and moisturized. The only negative point was that I wish I used it with the separate wax warmer since it was a messy process to warm the pot of wax on the stove top and I am clumsy so it was easy to spill at that time but I managed!
A beeze to keep skin hair free
I thought it was very easy to use and it didn't take too long to make the wax soft enough to use safely on my face. As with all hot waxes be careful of overheating. Would buy more once I finish this one
Easy and convenient
I was curious how this product would compare to salon waxing and I was pleasantly surprised! I used it on my upper lip and was super easy to understand and use! Would recommend!
Easy to use!
I can’t say enough good things about this product! I’m just going to get right into the facts because I know that’s what you all want! I tried my eyebrows first which was probably a mistake as once I got the hang of it (just how the product applied on my skin and how to use it (I moved too slow and I let it get a little too hard on my first eyebrow and it nervously came off in pieces) and moved on to my upper lip things went much smoother/easier even still! I’m confident next go round will be a breeze. So ease of use is a short learning curve.
I have VERY sensitive skin and am always hesitant to try new products if they’re not natural as that seems to be one of my sensitivities so it was nice to try a product I didn’t have to worry about how my skin might react. My skin after the skin test Parissa recommends doing didn’t react. So I knew I was good to go. I also really like that there is no strips, I can’t stress this point enough at least for me as an at home waxer on occasion (I’ve been known to get them done as self care) but this took all the scary part out for me. Which was the main reason I’d go to the salon instead of doing it myself! Strips always make me nervous when doing my waxing at home as I’m always worried about the wax accidentally spreading to an area I didn’t intend on waxing & nobody wants to make a mistake while waxing their eyebrows something everyone can see and is hard to “cover up”. I was also super happy at how well the product worked, it even got all those little baby hairs- I should note the leaflet recommends the hair be at least 2mm long. I wish I had taken a picture of the wax strip afterwards to show all it got! I’ll definitely be purchasing the wax along with the ultra soothe oil again, also being natural and vegan I wasn’t worried about how my skin might react (I’ve had some bad experiences, it’s not a good look trust me). It felt nice going on and genuinely soothed my skin, I felt an immediate difference after putting it on.
Not bad for at home kit
It worked really well. Clean and easy to use. However I didn't like having to heat it on the stove. I was really afraid it would spill. Maybe if I had the heater it would be better. It was easy to apply, and easy to come off.
Great Facial Wax
This wax took about 30 minutes on the stove to melt to the point where I could use it which was a turn off for me. But the results with the wax were so much better than some of the other waxes that I have used. I was able to get all hair out on the first try and did not have to go over the same spot multiple times or go back in with my tweezers. The Ultra Soothe Oil also helped to clean up any wax residue left behind. Going forward I will likely just use this in my wax warmer going forward so I don't have to watch the wax while melts on the stove.
Hot Wax Face & Lip No-Strip Review
The Parissa Hot Wax Face & Lip No-Strip product is an exceptional hair removal solution that I highly recommend. It is very easy to use, mess-free and does not require any strips. The wax melts quickly, spreads evenly, and removes hair effortlessly without any discomfortI was impressed with how long-lasting the results were and how well it removed even the shortest hairs. Overall, I am very satisfied with the Parissa Hot Wax Face & Lip No-Strip product and would definitely purchase it again.
Wax at home
I received Parissa Hot Wax Face & Lip No-Strip for free from @thisisbutterly in exchange of honest review. It is very easy to use. The instructions are pretty clear to follow. I heated the wax on my electric stovetop, placed foil underneath it to prevent a mess. It comes with wooden spatula to apply wax. Apply it on the skin when the wax is hot and honey like consistency and remove it when it is slightly set but still pliable. It removes all the hair in one go. The wax is gentle on the skin and leaves weeks of hair-free smoothness. I love the convenience of using it at home.
The Parissa Ultra Soothe Oil is so good to use as aftercare. It soothes skin post-wax and removes residual wax as well. It leaves skin feeling smooth. Just what your skin needs after a wax session. All in all great product to experience salon-like wax results at home.

Not what I was expecting...
The package arrived with everything you would need plus full size oil which you apply after waxing to soothe and soften skin and prevent ingrown hair.
I had not tried wax on my face before; I am not sure what I was expecting but I found it to be really painful and it didn't remove all the hair so I would have to do the same area more than once. Maybe with a bit more use, my skin would get used to it
I did like how its natural ingredients which are made from sustainable sources. Parissa does not test on animals which is another big plus for me and it is made in Canada.
I was a bit worried that the metal container that holds the wax would get too hot to touch the handle while heating but it didn't.
Would I buy this product, it's a hard no for me but I may try some of the other products they have like the Brow Waxing Pen, Organic Sugar Wax or the strips
