What is it: Parissa’s Face and Bikini, and Body wax strips, part of their Express line.
Why/the great stuff/the good stuff/ingredients — please see this post.
Cost effectiveness: (prices from well.ca)
- Face and Bikini: $7.59 for eight double-sided strips and a vial of azulene oil. (A bit cheaper than Veets, but with two less strips. Pretty close in price-per-use.)
- Body: $10.49 for eight laaarge double-sided strips and a vial of azulene oil. One strip is pretty much as long as my (albeit short) forearm.
The verdict? Like the Mini Brow Design strips, I loved these. However, they’re not quite as necessary — I’m not kidding when I say I will never live without my Parissa brow strips from now on, but I could live without these two. In basic English, though? If you’re on a super-strict budget, stick with the cheaper pot waxes… however, if you’d like to spend a *bit* more but still save money by buying strips instead of going to a salon, choose Parissa over the other companies. Trust me on this one!
(no, I’m not just saying that to convince you to buy Canadian)
(no, really. I’d even buy them if they were American.)
(I’d feel more like I was selling my soul, though, and less like I was doing a good deed.)
