As an esthetician, I would recommend that you put some talcum powder on your underarms after cleansing, before you start waxing. That will help your wax grip the hair better. Also, for those who are having someone else wax them- have that person hold down your skin and stretch it where they will be pulling from. Also helps it be more painless since there’s less tugging. And for anyone like us with hyperpigmentation- exfoliating 2x a week helps remove dead skin. Perfect for all of you skin but especially where we want areas to look smoother and more even toned. Side note- hyperpigmentation is very very common. As a Dominican and fellow woman of color I too have hyperpigmentation. Also Vitamin C helps with that too 😘. Hope this helps.

I'm now in college and it's been a habit that's shown amazing results and have stuck with me. Thank-you!

Let us know if you have any interest in trying our new Flex Reusable Disc! It’s quickly become our best seller. It hold 6+ super tampons (the cup holds 2+) and you can use it for mess-free period seggs 😉 Would love to send 💛

SUPER late to this video and the comment section, but tooootally stand by their comment about the Flex Cup AS WELL AS the Flex Reusable disc. Absolute game changer for periods!!! As a scientist with some familiarity in endocrine/reproductive function, I was skeptical...but the company has done their research! The products genuinely work and being environmentally friendly is icing on the cake. 10/10. Would recommend.

I am so glad you are able to put out more videos these days! I first started watching your videos a long time ago for curly hair content because I have similar density and curl texture....back in the day when curly hair didn't feel as cool. I've learned a lot from you and have truly embraced my curls. I love that you share luxury and budget friendly options. I also love that you are so picky about ingredients. As a chef, I learned very quickly that beautiful ingredients equal beautiful food. I believe it is the same with beauty products. We have to educate ourselves about ingredients instead of trusting that everything on the shelf is safe. Thanks for the education! I learned something about armpits and shaving today! ❤️😂

Hi! Have you considered using sugar wax? It's literally lemon, sugar and water. I use to go get Brazilians done but due to the pandemic I learned how to do the Brazilians myself. It saves me alot of money and you can make it yourself. Also the huge benefit from sugaring is that my hair is super thinned out now. Long term use of sugaring results in having your hair end up being so sparse that it barely is there now. Idk if the same happens with just regular waxing.
@Mrs.AlbaRamos
2 жыл бұрын
Yes I’ve looked into it and tried it one time, but it was not very effective to remove my thick hair, so I gave up on it and used hard waxes which removes much better from the root. Sugar wax is awesome for people with thinner hair though or my face and arm hair for example but not good on my underarms and legs because it’s not as effective. Waxing in general thins out hair and overtime reduces growth which is what I’ve experienced too. My hair is thinner and grows less so it’s less maintenance but it’s still too thick for sugar waxing.
@vs7134
2 жыл бұрын
@@Mrs.AlbaRamos really? Was it hard sugar wax? When I make my sugar wax, I heat it up to 260 degrees which results in hard wax. I have thick hair too, especially down there. I have 3c hair so my hair is pretty thick all over. But of course, to each thier own :)

I also have the same reaction to baking soda based deodorants. I think because it’s alkaline/not ph balanced to our skin since skin is more acidic. Using ph balanced soaps all over the body has helped tremendously with skin issues.

Thank you! As for the menstrual cup, you can’t feel it! It’s possible you even forget you have it in there. And as for public bathrooms... it will never get to the point of even having to remove it in a public bathroom because menstrual cups are meant to be in up to 12 hours without removal or needing to dump out blood. That’s because it’s able to hold more blood than a tampon and you would be inserting your cup in the morning and go about your day. Because you can leave it in for such long hours your chances of ever being In the situation of a public bathroom is unlikely.

I learned a phenomenal underarm deodorant trick that is deodorant free….you wash first with body wash or soap and the apply some benzoyl peroxide body acne wash and leave on for 30-60 seconds then rinse off. When you’re all dry, then apply some mild glycolic acid toner that’s for the face and leave it on, let it dry. That’s it! The acne body wash kills the bacteria that’s the real reason our sweat turns stinky in the first place and the glycolic acid exfoliates and somehow helps prevent odor as well. It actually works phenomenally well for me, even for 48 hours and I love that’s there’s no aluminum or even any added fragrance. Feels super fresh and just clean.

Flex discs are amazing! There’s definitely a learning curve but if you: pee before pulling it out, pee while really pushing the pelvic muscles and then pushing it back in (this dumps out most of the blood) you should be good for 8-10 hours. I would use a pad for back up until you get used to it. They also sell compostable baggies to wrap around your hand so your fingers don’t get bloody. They also reduce period symptoms and are disposable unlike the cup. They’re the best!
