Discover the products essential for pre- and postintimate waxing care for your clients

1 Lycon

The PrePost Lotion Kit from waxing brand Lycon has been formulated to effectively cleanse, pre-soothe, protect and nurture the skin before, during and after all waxing treatments. The five products included in the kit are Lycotane Skin Cleanser, Pre-waxing Oil, Tea Tree Soothe, Tea Tree Perfect, and Wax Solvent, included to help the kit to provide everything needed for pre- and post-wax care.

Trade: £25 020 7590 9300 lyconuk.com

2 Hive

Soothing Oil has had a dualaction update and can now be used both pre and post wax. Used ahead of waxing, the light oil forms a fine barrier between the skin and the wax being applied, preventing wax from gripping skin. Post-wax, the oil cools and conditions, locking in skin’s natural moisture with guaiazulene to reduce inflammation. 

Trade: £4.75 0845 450 4802 hiveofbeauty.com

3 Just Wax

The Protect and Calm two-in-one from Just Wax can be used instead of an oil on pre-cleansed skin to protect areas of extreme dryness or sensitivity before waxing, then used after waxing to calm, cool and moisturise the skin. The product is formulated with marshmallow root for its anti-inflammatory properties.

Trade: £5.25 020 8573 9907 salonsystem.com

Ashmira Botanica has several products available for pre- and post-waxing care, including the Comfort Balm, which quickly soothes and protects after waxing, reducing redness and preventing ingrown hairs from forming.

5 Outback Organics

6 Aqua Natural

Fine Talc and Soothing Mist combine for a perfect pre- and post-sugar waxing pairing.
