A depilatory wax strip can remove unwanted hair in any part of your body. These strips are easy to apply and remove, and they are sanitary and convenient to use. The process involves smearing a moisturizing cream on your skin and applying the depilatory wax evenly. Afterwards, you need to peel off the strip using the removal paper. Always remember to avoid using the strip on areas with sensitive skin, and wash your hands afterward.

The wax element on the depilatory strip is applied to the skin by using a specially shaped applicator. Once the strip has been used, it can be discarded. However, the adhesive layer must be effective in retaining the wax on the strip.

A depilatory wax strip contains an adhesive depilation paste, preferably a cold depilation wax formulation. It also contains a backing sheet with a coarse surface structure that is sufficient to exfoliate human skin. It may have a conical or circular shape.

Before you apply a depilatory wax strip, you should clean your skin thoroughly. A strip with an adhesive layer is not suitable for people with sensitive skin. It is not suitable for those with diabetes or skin conditions that are prone to infections or irritation. It is also not appropriate for sensitive areas like wounds, acne or varicose skin. Also, you should not apply the wax on skin that has an allergic reaction to it. Furthermore, you should avoid direct sunlight for 24 hours after the wax application. It is recommended to store the strip in a refrigerator to avoid high temperatures.

After waxing, it's important to remove the depilatory wax strip as quickly as possible. The best way to do this is to pull off the strip in the opposite direction of hair growth. This method will remove the wax in a fast motion, similar to pulling off an adhesive bandage. It should be removed in short motions, and you should continue until the entire area is hair-free.

Using oil can also help to remove residual wax. Oil has special characteristics that help it remove the wax residue quickly. After removing the depilatory wax strip, dip a cotton pad into the oil. Then, place the cotton pad on the wax residue and leave it there for three to 40 seconds before gently rubbing off the wax residue.
