Wax strips are an incredible way to exfoliate your skin in areas such as your elbows or heels. The gentle adhesive on the strips helps to lift away dead skin cells, leaving your skin smoother and more radiant. All you need to do is cut the wax strips into smaller pieces and apply them to the areas with rougher skin. Gently press and peel to reveal a softer, rejuvenated surface. You’ll thank us for it later!

Blackheads are an unwanted problem that we all face but they’re common and can be painful when trying to squeeze them out. So next time you want to get rid of your blackheads, consider using one of your wax strips. Apply the wax strip to your nose or any other problem area, press it firmly against your skin and peel away. The strip will stick itself onto impurities, helping to unclog pores and leaving your skin feeling fresh and clean.
