Waxed my bikini line (AAAGGGGHHHH THE PAIN) but I've got loads of wax residue that I can't get off. Im currently stuck into my thong.
Help, what can I use to get the wax off (that won't damage my new manicure)

Put mu dressing gown on, think he didn't suspect anything......but I sat down and got stuck to it, pulled it off and I purple fluffy bits stuck in the wax!
Jesus I could sell this experience to a comedy for a skit idea!
Its not coming off. Oil stopped working (and I was slipping over), baby wipes no effect, water done nothing. Maybe I'll try waxing the wax off......

Press waxy bit firmly against DPs hairiest place, move away quickly.
Alternatively you probably need a solvent, vodka?

Grin Penny Then she'd have her DP's hair stuck to her bits PMSL

How about an exfoliating scrub...if you can bear to do it !

AMcoffeeLover · 04/07/2015 19:35

Ouch ouch ouch. Pulled all the little fluffy bits out and now my legs are sticking together. At least the fluff dulled the sticking abilities.
Exfoliating did help a bit but it bloody hurts up ya butt crack. Don't think I can take the pain of doing that again

Once I've put the baby powder on then what? Now i'm just ghost white, smell nice, but still waxy

If oil hasn't worked try surgical spirit or alcohol.

What type of wax was it? Was it those pre-waxed strips or heat up/microwave stuff?

sonata1 · 04/07/2015 20:05

Hairdryer to soften wax enough to pull it off ?.....the wax that is LOL

AMcoffeeLover · 04/07/2015 20:28

I've got it off!!! With beeswax furniture polish!
Was veet strips.

LongDistanceLove · 04/07/2015 20:50

Hahahaha the thought of getting the pledge and a yellow duster out to shine up the old bikini line Grin

burnishedsilver · 04/07/2015 21:33

The baby powder was a joke!!!!

Wantsunshine · 04/07/2015 21:36

Sorry I did laugh. I also was trying to figure out what you manicured down there until it clicked you didn't want any product to ruin your nails!

SaveOurBogBrushes · 05/07/2015 17:53

hairdryer on a low heat might gently melt it?

Beeswax furniture polish
