Rica Wax vs Honey Wax: Which Is Right for Your Skin?

Both waxes remove hair from the root, but they feel different on the skin. Here is a simple guide to choosing.

Honey wax

A traditional, budget-friendly wax. It works well for most skin types and is a good choice for regular maintenance. It can feel a little warmer and may cause more redness on sensitive skin.

Rica wax

A liposoluble wax made with skin-friendly oils. It grips the hair more than the skin, so most people find it less painful, with less redness afterwards. It is the better choice for sensitive skin and for underarms.

Roll-on wax

The wax is applied from a single-use cartridge, which keeps it hygienic and quick. Good for full-body waxing.

How long do results last?

Usually three to four weeks, depending on your hair growth. Regular waxing tends to make regrowth finer over time.

Before and after

• Avoid scrubbing or applying retinol creams for 24 hours before.
• Skip hot showers, sun and gym sweat for 24 hours after.
• Use a gentle moisturiser and exfoliate lightly from day three to prevent ingrown hair.
